Can you add - highlight all instances of variable name in the code using colours, when user click on one instance in JS or PHP code ? ( like it does in NetBeans )
Very usefull.

The variable will get highlighted when you select it.

Much better for coders - just clicking on variable name, not select whole name ( like it does in Microsoft Visual Studio, NetBeans )

Thank you for your work.

Hi,

for long time i wanted to ask: can you please fix highlighting (selected) colors in css files? What i mean:

Example file:
Code: Select all
.test-1 {
  color: #000000;
}

.test-2 {
  color: #CC0000;
}

.test-3 {
  color: #00CC00;
}

.test-3 {
  color: #000000;
}

when i select the first "000000" - then the last "000000" will be highlighted (as expected). But when i select the first "#000000" (which is the default action on double click), then the last "000000" highlights for a tiny bit of time and then un-highlights.

It worked fine in (rapid PHP) version before 2014 (2012 i think). I use color/variable highlighting with double click a lot.

Can you please fix it in 2015 version? Version 2014 would be also great :)

Thank you.

It's because of the # symbol. I'll add this to bugs/suggestions list, I can't promise we will be able to fix it until the release though, maybe in one of the future bugfix updates.
