Re: Outline View


I agree that at a minimum it should not go to the checkboxes on the bottom
but at least to the 3 buttons before getting to Replace. The current
behaviour does appear to be a bug.
Has anyone opened a PMR?

The Tab should position to the next logic data entry point - that's true
for all applications I've ever used.
In RDi, after pressing CTRL-F to invoke Find/Replace it "jumps over" the
REPLACE text box and focuses on the "Case Sensitive" checkbox.

I don't see how anyone can argue that is "standard behavior" for any
application.

As we can see some people want the Tab key to follow user interface
standards of Left-Right and others want to follow the task flow priority.
So no matter what we do, some will be unhappy.
I think Buck's solution of Alt-P was the most usable and it can be done
today.

Kurt,

Nope, I have created new workspaces, and still not resolved.

www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg11SE61047

So, it is supposed to be "restored" sometime in the future... What once
work, will "eventually" work again...

The tab problem was introduced in 9.1 and not fixed in 9.1.1. So if you're
at 9.1, you already have the tab issue. (Unless it's due to a workspace
screwup?)

OK...

The tab-thing bothers me a great deal as well... especially since the
"replace text" never seems to get cleared.

The control+F no longer place the high-lighted field in the Find Box like
EVERY OTHER programmer Editor on the planet. This is includes ECLIPSE!!!
Yes, this annoys me...

And also unlike every other editor on the place, when you do a Find &
Replace. The cursor normally position to the find field, and then you hit
tab ONCE, and it take you to the REPLACE field. Since that is MOST COMMON
reason to use find and Replace!

Except for SEU, which is outdated from the 70's or ealier... But even SEU
has the second tab as the REPLACE field!!! How about that?!?!?!

What is the most common Reason to use find & replace? To find a string &
replace it. The other functions are purely secondary. Why can the Next tab
stop be the replace? Yes, you can cut it down from 12 tabs stops down to
4. If you change your window preferences...

But, even Eclipse has a single tab to goto the replace field...
(Long standing issue here, nothing new...)

Over all, I like RDi 9.1.1., but the Ctrl+F not working like Eclipse annoys
me the most...

Most, but not all of us, are stuck navigating between a lots of different
tools. So, this basic find & replace function should be CONSISTENT across
editors. At least allow us to map it out to our preferences if nothing
else...

Because I am sure people "LOVE" to hit their tab button a lot...

OK... what is the CRTL-F issue? I agree that the collapsing outline view
is a big issue for me. But I thought I read something about CTRL-F no
longer functioning as "FIND/REPLACE"

I think most on this list will agree that they are thankful to have moved
up to 9.1.1 Some of the complaints have been on new function that is not
even available on 9.1 (like the Multiple Occurrence highlighting).
If you insist on staying on 9.1, you can get a test fix for the associated
APAR.

that.

I'm running v9.1... I have my view setup with the RPG source member full
screen and the outline view restored so that I can see both while editing
code. If you expand the files under Global Definitions so that you can see
field names, everything in the outline view "collapses" when you make a
change to the source member.

Is there a way to keep the outline view from collapsing?
