New Script Editor

[d.healey]

@ustk Thanks for the video. Yes I experience a similar level of lag with line breaks disabled - although not quite as laggy as your video shows. For me it is most noticable when typing text.

[d.healey]

Some more quirkyness - auto complete being unhelpful.

@d-healey I've had this for days - works with else{ too.

Confirmed...

I've also seen that the Code Bookmarks

//! Comment with an exclamation mark

Don't appear anymore in the context menu

@ustk Can you try again? I think I've fixed the lag and now it should be as responsive as the old editor irregardless of the line break state.

[ustk]

@Christoph-Hart Worse than ever, all code is gone
But it's working somewhere in the background as my interface is running...

[d.healey]

@ustk Try latest commit

[ustk]

@d-healey Oh yes it just arrived...

[ustk]

@Christoph-Hart Well... That almost did it, new line and typing are definitely as they should now, but backspace lag is even worse

[d.healey]

@ustk Seems fine to me in a fresh project

[ustk]

@d-healey Yeah in the lorem ipsum from above too, but not in my 200 lines project... Line number might be the issue I don't know...
@Christoph-Hart BTW, openGL HAS to be enabled on mac, or scriptnode is not even usable as soon as you have a few nodes... anyway it doesn't change anything about the code editor, so I keep it enabled

[ustk]

Precision: the backspace lags only when deleting a char/space. It's fine when deleting a line.
In fact, everything that involves deleting a char (so pasting, back-tab...)

[Christoph Hart]

Please try again now, I've reworked a bunch of things including the backspace lag.

New strangeness with tabs

[Christoph Hart]

Does it help if you change this line to

#if JUCE_WINDOWS || JUCE_LINUX

I think I had to hack around to fix that on macOS but it might be the same as on Windows for you...

[d.healey]

@Christoph-Hart I'll try it now. Despite Mac being Unixy I find Debian UX often has more in common with Windows.

[d.healey]

Yes that worked. I'm finding now that the first tab on the line is 4 spaces and all tabs after are 3 spaces. Is it the same for you?

[Christoph Hart]

Erm, it's supposed to be like this. A tab goes to the next multiple of 4, so if you start from 0, then it will go to position 4. If you enter a * and press tab, you start from position 5 so it just fills up 3 spaces.
