Show element schematic in Code Explorer

Post by simmerin »

Is there an option for showing document structure in Code Explorer (schematic of html elements). This would make it useful for quickly locating code. For example, finding a particular paragraph within a particular div etc.

My view of Code Explorer just shows a list of links, scripts, and images instead of document structure. I am assuming there is an option somewhere to switch views. Is that correct, or should I post this in feature requests?

Thank You

I don't think this is possible. a DOM centric view would be nifty. It has been requested before.

It's actually quite possible. I have used PSPad an open source HTML editor. It's nice but not nearly as flexible or intuitive as WeBuilder. That said, it does have a DOM centric view on its code explorer which is very useful. Certainly if an open source program like this can do it then Karlis can as well.

Here's a preview of what I'm talking about.

Unfortunately at the present moment this feature is not yet available. And right now I can not tell when it could become available.
