SciTE v 3.20 Beta available

[jaberwacky]

I now receive this message:

C:Program Files (x86)AutoIt3SciTELUAMyTools.lua:1: attempt to index global 'MyTools' (a nil value)
>Lua: error occurred while loading startup script

[Xenobiologist]

Sorry for the question, but is there already an installer for the Scite_beta or do I manually have to download the files from here : http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/download/beta_SciTE4AutoIt3/SciTE-3.03/

I would like to test a little bit, too :-)

On the first post the dll link isn't working, but I can download the standalone Scite.exe.

I'm no scite guru, and my setup is exactly as I described it.... but can you post the contents of MyTools.lua and SciTEStartup.lua?

Take this line

MyTools = EventClass:new(Common)

out of the startup file.

[jaberwacky]

Oops, . I was just going to say that I realized what I did.

[jaberwacky]

As an aside, hope this is the right thread for this.

I found InsertRegion in AutoItTools.lua. Any reason why it isn't set to be used? It seems to work fine for me.

Yes, just replace the 2 files. I have fixed the url for scilexer.dll.

Thanks, I updated my Scite, the dll, the Wrapper and the SciteGlobal.properties.

Now, hopefully magic happens :-)

[Jos]

Also update the au3check.exe to allow for the inline errors to display the proper colors.

[Xenobiologist]

I did! Thanks again.

Nothing special belonging to the new Scite version, but I just noticed that stream and box comments are not really working.

Hi. Earlier I hacked around with some lua (neat-o!) and I came up with some extra options for styling the calltip window. This isn't something that no one else could have done.

Add these to your SciTEUser.Properties

## CallTips
# Display the calltip above the function
calltips.set.above=1
# Set the fore and back color of the calltip window
style.au3.38=fore:#DADADA,back:#15191E
# Set the highlight color of the function argument
calltips.color.highlight=#5C81B3

Add this to your lua file. (Look to wraithdu's post here: )

expandcollapse popup

myCallTips = EventClass:new(Common)

function myCallTips:OnOpen(path)
    self.error = "Error"
    myCallTips:set_above()
    myCallTips:set_highlight_color()
    return true
end

-- set_above()
-- Displays the calltip above the function.
function myCallTips:set_above()
    local calltips_set_above = tonumber(props["calltips.set.above"])

    if (calltips_set_above == 1) then
        scite.SendEditor(SCI_CALLTIPSETPOSITION, true)
    else
        scite.SendEditor(SCI_CALLTIPSETPOSITION, false)
    end

    return true
end

-- set_highlight_color()
-- Set the color of the highlighted calltip property
function myCallTips:set_highlight_color()
    local calltips_color_highlight = props["calltips.color.highlight"]

    if (calltips_color_highlight == '') then
        calltips_color_highlight = "#FF0000" -- dark blue default
    end

    calltips_color_highlight = myCallTips:BGR2Decimal(calltips_color_highlight)

    if (calltips_color_highlight == self.error) then
        return false
    end

    scite.SendEditor(SCI_CALLTIPSETFOREHLT, calltips_color_highlight)

    return true
end

-- BGR2Decimal()
-- convert BGR to decimal, duh! (albeit in a hack and stab manner)
function myCallTips:BGR2Decimal(BGR)
    if (BGR.len(BGR) ~= 7) then
        return self.error
    end

    BGR = BGR:gsub('#', '') -- remove hash
    BGR = BGR.reverse(BGR)
    BGR = "0x"..BGR

    return tonumber(BGR)
end

The red color is... too red! and i dont like the fact that it's above the function.

Anyway, it's just a question of tasts!

Nice example, anyway, too.

These let you change that:

## CallTips
# Display the calltip above the function
calltips.set.above=1
# Set the fore and back color of the calltip window
style.au3.38=fore:#DADADA,back:#15191E
# Set the highlight color of the function argument
calltips.color.highlight=#5C81B3

could explain what you mean with this? What exactly do you do and result do you see?

[wraithdu]

Speaking of bugs, did you see my report in Post #51 about bookmarks?

Seen your remark and hope I find all the remark/issues/suggestions back when i return home.

Did you check if this is a change in the SciTE version from Neil or just my version?

[matwachich]

I have some suggestions to add some abreviations that i use very very often:

inc=#Include <|.au3>

incv=#Include "|.au3"

w1=While 1nt|nWEnd

sep=; ---

line = ; #######################################################

They are really handy!

[Jos]

I'm really digging the inline errors I found a bug though. I can no longer click in the gray area just to the right of the line numbers (where the mouse cursor changes to a mirrored version) to insert a bookmark. It just highlights the line now and moves the cursor to the next line. Maybe this is an option now? Ctrl-F2 still works to insert bookmarks though.

Are you sure this worked before? I just tried it in SciTE 2.28 released in the latest installer and the mouse doesn't mirror and bookmarks clicks don't do anything.

Researching this in Google only gave me a hit for Notepad++ till now.

Was this working for you in the 2.28 version included in the latest installer?

[Jos]

I just have one question. Now I just need to figure out how to get the IDM_NEXTMSG to stick. With output.scroll=1 the IDM_NEXTMSG happens before the last line of output (The exit code as returned by the wrapper script) so SciTE re-scrolls to the end. I think it would be better if it was left on the first error because that is also where the editor has jumped to. Not a big deal but the current behavior feels a bit wrong to me.

This is easy to implement when doing it the following way:

I Added a Commandline option to AutoIt3Wrapper:

Case $T_Var = "/Jump2FirstError"
   ; when AutoIt3Wrapper is launched for "Jump2FirstError" then wait till the original AutoIt3Wrapper is ended and after send "Next Message(F4)" command
   $H_Cmp = $CMDLINE[$x + 1]
   While ProcessExists($H_Cmp)
    Sleep(100)
   WEnd
   Sleep(200)
   SendSciTE_Command($My_Hwnd, $SciTE_hwnd, "menucommand:306") ; IDM_NEXTMSG
   Exit

And use the following code after au3check completion which will shell an additional instances of the script that waits for the completion of the initial version and then send the "Next Message(F4)" command:

If $ExitCode Then
    Run(@ScriptFullPath & " /Jump2FirstError " & @AutoItPID)
   Else
    SendSciTE_Command($My_Hwnd, $SciTE_hwnd, "extender:dostring scite.SendEditor(SCI_ANNOTATIONCLEARALL)")
   EndIf

Uploaded a updated version (2.1.0.12) of AutoIt3Wrapper that contains these changes.
