AutoIt3 Function Popup

[emmanuel]

The reason is that at the time funcpopup loses the focus, it checks if it went to Scite. Only then the windows are resized. this is done because you don't want to do the resizing stuff when you jump to another window.

I will have a look now to see if the check can be done in the build in timer, where i also do the Helpfile stuff now....

That just went right over my head . But that's ok. You work your magic!

First of all I want congratulate and thank JdeB for this wonderfull piece of work.

I downloaded this extra functionality for SciTe this morning and really really like it.

But could it be possible that when you have the split screen an for example type:

r

that when you double click on Run in FunctionPopUp it inserts Run without the first letter(s)?

Now when I double click it just inserts Run so I end up with rRun in my script.

BTW when I exit SciTe FunctionPopUp doesn't close.

Can this be linked in some way?

Anyway, thanx again !

Just checking......

- Is this what should be released in the next Scite4Autoit3 build?

- Anybody seen any errors ?

- Did it really fix the Scite error for those who reported that issue ?

- Should FuncPopUp be linked to the F1 and have the Helpfile open with Shift+F1 ?

- Any other issues/feedback ?

Looks nice, maybe ill try it later

Only other item I might hope for would be ignoring words in comments and quotes. I think I'm more happy with the way the F1's work now. I open Scite and hit Shift-F1 once, then if I need more on something later it's just f1 for help.

I used to get errors closing Scite while Funcpopup was open.

Now Scite closes and Funcpopup remains open every time.

Anyone else have this problem?

Normally close Funcpopup before I close Scite so not a major problem for me.

Its on my wishlist, but don't know if its possible to retrieve the current STYLE from Scite via the Director interface..... Have done several test but couldn't get it to work.

Have done some more testing and was able to replicate the issue.

Just uploaded build 17 which contains a couple of updates for the communication to SciTe. Please try and see if you can get it to fail still.

EDIT: Scite still shows an error sometimes ... mailed Neil with the specs and asked if its a bug in Scite ....

Is there any more work being done on the AutoIt Function Popup? This thread seems to be long dead.

"Is anybody out there?"

[GaryFrost]

Nobody out there.

Apparently you don't use SciTe Editor, the FuncPop is include with it.

Thanks. I have Scite installed, but I use the extras (including FuncPop) from Ultraedit. My assumption was that each part was developed seperatly with different dev threads.

[GaryFrost]

They start in their own threads, but if the author is asked to allow it to be used in another app or merge with another project it's thread might die, others might continue on with thier own thread.

Just found the thread and I really like that FuncPopup. It is awesome. Now function lookup is quick and easy. My hats off to you JdeB!!!

Cheers..

Func popup is great and i like how when it is open I can just hit F1 for help on the current func but I having FuncPopup on the right better so for now I have to use this scriptlet.

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
WinMove(" SciTE","",0,0,683, 741)
WinMove("AutoIt3 FuncPopUp","",683,0)

However It would be nice if it could be added to the menu just like Leftsplit.

I just advised a newcomer to use Function Popup.

Obviously I had to try it myself again. And while doing that I realized how difficult it is to get the leftsplit functionality to work. You have to select split in the options menu, but then nothing happens before you hit Esc. I did not hit Esc before something like 10 minutes after I selected split, and then it was by pure accident. Even start to search for this place to put up a question about it.

I also wonder if you could have a "sticky" option such that "Function Popup" always is visible when SciTE has focus? It should be a option, not forced upon the user

EDIT: And now I cvant get the leftsplit thing to work at all..

EDIT2: The right version of the help file must be open. Use F1 in Function Popup. But when leftsplit is used the helpfile quite often steals focus from SciTE (witch is really annoying)!
