Advanced Editor Enhancements

Post by edauthier » Sun Jun 15, 2008 1:21 am

Many may not be interested, but maybe..

It would be nice to be able to highlight a portion of code, right click and run it from within the advanced editor.
Anyone familiar with MS SQL knows this feature and it comes in handy for for expediently building queries.

My second one may just be laziness. This could be an option to choose, or a space on the right, or maybe a floating box.. when turned on. Not sure about that, but it would also be nice to highlight and drag code off to the side while building a script. A place that stays static while scrolling up and down the main script. In real large scripts I find myself working with Notepad minimized, cutting, pasting, back and forth, etc. I just think it would be cool to stay focused within the MS editor to do the whole thing.

Its all about the tools.

Thanks, Ed

Hi Ed,
May I suggest a free program called MD2 for your second suggestion? It's a program I use to make windows stay on top. It has lots of other cool features that I use all the time. I hope it's OK to post this link http://dm2.sourceforge.net/
