Gummisurf

Good name for an app

@tomazkid

If you knew the original meaning of it it is even better ;-P

Tomazkid looks like a gummismurf

We also added a tutorial how to easy make scheduled backup with DRemind and BackUp =)

Nice news!

Great Develin!

I test today Annotate on my os4.1, and have some questions:

It is possible to configure Annotate, to have scroll bar on right side, but not on left one ?

Also suggestion: when you choice "put ascii code", imho, you need to bring full ascii code window, where user can choice which symbol he want, and which ascii number that symbol have. Like in old DOS-Navigator for ms-dos.

Also for me "vertical block marker" works a bit strange. I.e. when i mark somethink, it's "jumping" from the left to right side.

@Develin

Thanks!!

No, sorry. But you'll get used to it, especially when you start realizing how useful this scrollbar is: It shows where in the file a current selection is. It shows where the cursor is. It shows where you last had your cursor (to quickly get back if you needed to scroll away and copy something), and it shows scroll stores.

Yea, that could be useful. I'll put it on todo.

Since it is not possible to put the cursor or any marking outside the end of lines, this is how it works when you drag your mouse and the cursor jumps between shorter and longer lines.

And which is the mean of this magic name?

P.S.: And thanks you for this new updates.

That good, but it's related to cursor itself. I am just about adding some possiblity to configure to show that scroll bar on the right are of window, not on the left (to give users more ways to configure programm for their needs). I just always use editors where scrollbar on the right side, so it's a bit un-standard for some of us :)

Hm.. but how all other programms (for example Golded) and so on, can do vertical block marking, without these "jumping-bugs-looks" thinks ?:) Maybe i not so clear say what i mean about "jumping" : I mean that when you do vertical block marking, it's just looks like "visual bugs" some time. Like you press button, move mouse by the text to the left area, but that "blue marked area" jump from time to time just to other side. I can make a videol which will explain what i mean... If you need it of course :)

@Templario

You don't want to know...

@kas1e

Are you implementing a feature now??
Please test it well and send the changed files before release then so I can merge it with the rest of the program.

GoldED can place the cursor beyond the end of line (where there is no text and logically cannot be a cursor). I strongly dislike that behaviour (and really don't want to see anyone put it into Ann ), but it does prevent block marking from jumping.

On the other hand, block marking does not make much sense outside lines. If you want to copy a block, you typically want a block, not a couple of lines with different length, right?
