Rapid PHP 2016 (CSS preview in Split-mode)

Post by Viktor2016 »

Hello! And last one request on today :).
There is great "Synchronize with cursor" mode for HTML (in Horizontal/Vertical Split).
But there is no this mode for CSS! Would you add this opportunity in future versions? Thank you.

Do you mean when you preview CSS file (Generate preview file) - allow clicking into preview and go to corresponding line in editor?

At least.
But in ideal it will be cool if it'll work and vice versa: i mean, when we clicking in CSS-code - there highlighting corresponding blocks (ancors, images, tables, etc) in Preview-section. And we could see made changes in almost real-mode. Thanks.

It already works if you use Generated CSS preview. The preview will scroll to corresponding position when you click inside the CSS ruleset with a mouse. I'm assuming you want a similar feature when HTML file that uses the CSS file is used for preview instead of the Generated Preview. And, if, let's say, user is editing h1 { ... } then scroll to the first h1 element in the document? Do I understand the idea correctly?

Yes, i meant "HTML file that uses the CSS file is used for preview instead of the Generated Preview".
And if "editing h1 { ... } then scroll to the first h1 element in the document" - this is too good idea.
But i think there is necessary to add highlighting the same blocks on page (as i described above), on which extended declared rulesets. Not permanent, but, for example, when holding "Ctrl" key.

Ok, got it! We'll think about the technical implications and whether we can add it. Thanks for the idea!
