Suggested fix to bold the editor just like views. none

Description Nick Edgar CLA 2005-02-22 19:39:01 EST
build 3.1 M5

- IWorkbenchSiteProgressService.warnOfContentChange() is implemented as:
site.getPane().showHighlight();

but showHighlight() is only implemented on ViewPane.

It should also work for editors.

There are currently no plans to work on this although we would be happy to review a patch

Suggested fix to bold the editor just like views.

This patch will implement showHighlight() in the same manner that views do wherein a property change will be fired and the editor's tab will have its text bolded. A test for editors and views are included in this patch.

I'll leave this open for a while in case somebody else feels that the behaviour should be different for editors. If no one says anything, I will take your silence as a "sounds good to me" and release the patch to HEAD.

Adding Tod back to this bug on CC. Tod, I'm planning to bold the editors so that the behaviour is the same for views, if you feel otherwise, let me know.
Comment 4 Tod Creasey CLA 2008-11-12 08:39:56 EST
This is a fairly big behaviour change. I agree with the idea but Kevin should be made aware of it.
Comment 5 Remy Suen CLA 2008-12-01 07:34:24 EST
Kevin, do you have any comments about this behavioural change?
Comment 6 Min Idzelis CLA 2009-06-23 15:03:26 EDT
Any updates on this one?

Kevin? Would bolding the editor's text be okay?
Comment 8 Remy Suen CLA 2009-09-15 19:29:17 EDT
“Kevin, do you agree?”
“Kevin, can I take this bug?”
“Kevin, are you there?”
“Wake up Kevin!”

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
