Go To function with anchors

Post by ttx »

Hi,

I am working with large files (php, css) (about 2000-4000 lines). I use a special comment lines to separate related functions/blocks which looks like /*** LABEL ***/ and then use search function to jump between those labels. But i need to remember all the labels i used in different files. I would like a function which will look for those special comment lines (format can be defined in options) and create a list of them. And then when i press Ctrl+G shortcut a window (like in Excel) will appear:
Image

Then i can double click on label and editor will jump to this line of code or enter a line number manualy.
I don't use bookmark function, it is too slow for me and you need to remember where the (numbered) bookmark points. Which is hard when you work with a lot of files at once.

I will be very happy if this function will be in one of the major versions of Rapid PHP.

Thank you & sorry for my english.

Re: Basic Go To Feature (goto line number)

Post by CaliforniaJerry »

There is a basic "Go To" feature in WeBuilder 2011.

The default key combination is, Ctrl+G.

It is available in the main menu > 'Search' dropdown selections.

What is MISSING, however, there is no reference to it in the 'Help' manual. I don't see it in the 'Contents' or 'Search'.
