New Script Editor

@d-healey Yeah. Shift+Tab was actually working yesterday, now it's gone!

What I find super nice, is the wrapping brackets when you insert them at the end of a word/whatever... But it doesn't work the other way round yet...

• Enable line breaks, Show whitespace, and Autoshow autocomplete are still enabled each time Hise is opened no matter what you set as @d-healey suggested previously.

• I imagine Fix weird tab can be removed since it has no action... And that's because you rock ChrisBoy !

I've found that sometimes it sticks and sometimes it doesn't. I'd rather have this as a global preference like the code editor size.

@d-healey +1 for global :)

[Christoph Hart]

Yes, I'll probably change that to a JSON file in the app data directory that can be edited to set global editor settings.

@Christoph-Hart Perfect! And mini-map always on :) I don't know how we lived without it.

@Lindon Ok, how about persistent to the last on/off state selected by the user?

Great idea… Yes, please! +1

@Christoph-Hart Is it possible to make block comments closing chars to check if he's the last one, so it's working with block comment encapsulation?

Another idea could be to add the number of stars needed to include other comments (or the opposite):

/**

/*   
*/

**/

One important problem I've noticed with the new editor is it doesn't report some common errors.

For example, putting g.setColour(colous.white); in a paint routine doesn't generate an error and leaves me scratching my head until I discover that colous is not a thing.

Seeing a problem with block comments. If you scroll beyond the /* the text colour changes.
