Description Jeroen Vlek CLA 2008-04-23 09:11:11 EDT 
I've had a look through the Most Frequent Bugs/Request but I could not find it there. I also don't know if there is another word for 'green bar', so please bear with me ;)

What I'm missing in PDT is the functionality that the Java view does have: When filling in the parameters for a function you can switch between parameters with TAB and when you're done you can jump outside of the parentheses with enter. The place where to the cursor will jump is marked with a green bar.

I know that you can press a closing parenthesis and it will overwrite the one that is already there. This is useful if you have for instance nested function calls, however the 'green bar' would be a nice addition to this because it allows you to jump multiple closing parentheses.

If I understand correctly we have now such functionality. Fixed indirectly.

Right, that was implemented few years ago. Closing
