Description Christian Lenz 2014-07-06 21:28:28 UTC
As I figured out, that I can't use camelCase navigation inside JSON and plain JS objects. Its possible to navigate "test-test" from test to - and from - to test but if I have testTest or test_test, from the beginning, it jumps to the end and vice versa. But I think this is a problem in strings for the whole IDE or? Its not only about JSON and JS objects. But if we use strings and we have things like test-test, test_test and testTest, those things are not text relevant things, it should be variables, keys or values. An option would be helpful, because of this problem:

"Hi Im a sentence and you can navigate through each word which is not written in camelCase or written in test-test, test_test." So if you want to change smth, it would be a pain in the ass maybe, so an option would be fine to enable/disable it.

Chris

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Do your general comment mean, that this is already fixed in 8.2 or what? Please be more specific, because this is also not a bug, this is a feature request (enhancement). And if it was fixed, that resolve it as fixed and not wontfix.
Comment 3 Milutin Kristofic 2016-07-07 08:46:25 UTC
It is not resolved. If this enhancement is still relevant for you, you are welcome to reopen this.
Comment 4 Christian Lenz 2016-07-07 08:56:40 UTC
Thx, reopen because it is still relevant for me. I'm not the user to ask every month "everything new here?" So I had patience to wait for it.
Comment 5 Christian Lenz 2018-02-15 17:19:42 UTC
I will close it, because it will handled now at the JIRA board: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-397. Please discuss it there for further information.
