TAB indent with selected text block?

[MortenMacFly]

Dear all,

I very much like and use the "selected text" -> "tab indent" functionality in C::B.
Now I realised that one can even select text-areas using "ALT"+"Mouse select". This is very (!) helpful for tables similar things. Now I tried to indent such a selected text-aera (block) using "tab indent". Unfortunately not the selected text is indendet but all lines. I believe that this goes back wo wxScintilla but I might be wrong. If somebody knows for sure, could he/she please tell me?

That's right: it's scintilla's behaviour.

Thanks, so I have to bug them with a feature request... :lol:

...which I have done by now.

By the way: I have filed a feature request about that to the Scintilla project devs. They have complained that this does not match their understanding of "indent" so it's "unlikely" that they will implement this. It's a pity but I have to accept it. :cry:

Sorry to say this, but I have to agree with them...

To be honest: In the context of "indent" and after the explanation of the Scintilla dev I have to admit that, too. However - it would just have been a very nice feature for code-beatifying. If you do mathematical programming, everything that helps with alignment is really helpful.
