Please fix the issue on code folding being based on indentation and not syntax. People regularly write on this issue and it's still not fixed.
That's the only thing that stands between me and buying ST.
- karmakaze 5y agoI wasn't aware that this is an issue. It seems to me that the existing feature is 'text-based' folding rather than 'code-based'. I wouldn't notice as indentation very closely follows the code block structure in most of the code-bases I edit. It could be useful to open a feature request for 'code-based' folding, if the existing 'text-based' one is considered to be working as intended. That way we're not fighting over a definition but rather showing demand for a new capability that everyone would agree is absent.
- jokoon 5y agoFor info, I was talking about this one: https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/101 https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/101 Editors like visual studio IDE properly fold code so that it results in a compact layout once it's folded. I would guess indentation-based folding could be made more compact and not take unnecessary lines.
- ben-schaaf 5y agoAs you can see I'm already assigned to that issue, so we've got something in the works.
