[Rapid PHP] Highlight matching brackets

Dear Support,

Why in the 2010 version was removed useful feature "highligting matching brackets" in the strings?

Please return this feature to the new version.

Hi,

The next version will have it the more like the way it was in version 2007.
There might as well be some changes in future, to make further improvements.
Aivars suggested we make it so, that the parenthesis marked in blue will be limited by the green parenthesis, and no highlighting in comments (which will be turned on again with version 2011, unless we manage to find a solution till the release).

Gatis
Kind regards,
Gatis Avots

Adding too many options makes settings window scary, so our policy is not to add a setting unless completely desperately required to.

I can understand that, but the setting panel is not used very often. So I think it will not be a problem expanding it a little bit to add new features to RapidPHP/WeBuilder. How about a poll to see, what feature the users want most, like Dropbox's Votebox (http://www.dropbox.com/votebox) or something like in this Tutorial: http://tutorialzine.com/2010/08/ajax-su ... php-mysql/
