While I understand how nice the solution works for a specific case, in general it is not (IMHO) much suitable and will interfere with other text-oriented functions. Functions operating on a region of text would become more complicated, because the code (comment) is not only folder, but also visually repositioned / mixed with the other text. Indication at EOL is also not suitable for long lines, the indicator may be cut of by the window right border. Why not use glyph gutter for indication ? Re. editing in popup: inline editing if Codefold tooltip was disabled recently because issues it had with the main editor window. It should really serve as a tooltip, not a secondary editor. WYSIWYG (or assisted) editing of the javadoc comment html request should be filed as another issue. |
