I opened up Spyder-IDE and every time i press on my space key this is what happens:
i get this weird dot...
is it possibe to remove this dot from spyder?
(Spyder maintainer here) Those dots are displayed when you activate the option called Show blank spaces, which is present in the Source menu.
So you need to deactivate that option to hide them from view.
I want to create a View very similar To the iOS notes application. The main function is to allow the user to get a check box in front of a line of Text.
My first attempt is this:
I have a UITextView where i try to insert buttons on the left side of the View, the Problem is i dont get the right y Position for each line and the whole text is offsetted even if there is no Button in Front of the line.
Question:
Is there a better approach, maybe much simpler or even built in functionality in UITextView i couldn‘t find?
If not, how do i get the exact y position of the line the cursor is currently in, so i can set the Buttons in the correct positions?
i am generating a label in a view with label text retrieving from a JSON file.
now there are certain texts(values) retrieved from the JSON file that are user interactive texts (URL/some action) and some are not.
Now i am retrieving the data which are user interactive, setting them as text of a UILabel (which i created dynamically) and setting it in the view (PS. my view controller only has a 2 views inside,one that is default and another in which i am generating the label).
The problem that is arising is that the interactive strings(labels) are set in one line and the ones that are not interactive are set in the next line(as i am creating individial labels for them) even if its a single word.
I want to set the labels (with the texts - interactive/noninteractive) side by side untill there is no space.
Cant wrap my head around it because its a logical problem.
Any help is appreciated
I regularly use Scite for executing lengthy scripts (Batch files, python scripts).
Per default, the current position in the output window is set back to the start.
Is there some secret configuration option that instructs scite to just stop at the end of the output?
For my use case it would be more convenient that way, because I could see the end status right away without scrolling back.
Found the answer via the scite-interest group:
It's right in the docs: http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEDoc.html
To stop the output pane from automatically scrolling, set output.scroll to 0. To have the
output pane scroll and return back to the line of the executed
command, set output.scroll to 1. If you want the output pane to scroll
and remain at the bottom after execution, set output.scroll to 2.
The vertical scroll range is normally set so that maximum scroll
position has the last line at the bottom of the view. Set
end.at.last.line to 0 to allow scrolling one page below the last line.
Is there a text editor which offers horizontal, rather than vertical, scrolling (showing two pages side by side)?
I currently use TextMate, but would switch to any editor which offers this layout. I'm getting really bored of scrolling up and down, over and over.
I've attached a screenshot of MS Word, which has a side-by-side horizontal scroll view for documents longer than a page.
I want something like that, Any recommendations?
Emacs offers a follow-mode which you might find helpful ( see for instance here http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FollowMode).
A short description of how it is used and what it does:
You need to open a buffer in two windows and enter follow-mode using M-x follow-mode. This is actually a bit of a drawback, because you need to learn how to use emacs, if you don't know it already (imho learning how to use emacs is worth spending some time).
After entering follow-mode the second buffer will skip to the place where the first buffer ends, similar to the page-by-page view offered by Microsoft Word. Now if you move the cursor down one line at a time and you leave the first buffer window at the bottom, the cursor will appear at the top of the second. If you move further down and you are at the bottom of the second window, both buffers will scroll simultaneously, the same holds for page-wise scrolling using C-v and M-v.
If your monitor screen is wide enough, you can open a third window to further increase number of lines being displayed.
I have made a screenshot, which shows a text file opened in this mode: Screenshot auf Follow mode
Hmmm, it seems you are looking for layout features which you aren't likely to find in a text editor. Text editors are generally line based and don't understand the concept of pages. Text editors do things like code folding and allow lines to be wrapped or not. That is why text editors scroll in the vertical direction. These factors would affect pagination.
The concept of a page (and being able to lay them out side by side) doesn't really exist unless you are using a presentation manager such as a word processor or a desktop publishing package.
In vim: <Esc>:vsplit will open a second column for the file.
In all fairness, I should warn you that Vim has a steep learning curve, and will force you to wrap your head around new concepts like command mode / edit mode / visual mode. The results are definitely worth it, if you have the time to learn it.
I'm not sure if I know exactly what you want. Does Sublime Text 2's two-column layout with File > New View Into File do what you want?
A change on one side is reflected instantly in the other side, and you can scroll them independently. You can have up to four columns per window.
In LibreOffice Writer, go to View -> Zoom... and set Zoom factor to Fit width and height, and set View layout to Automatic. You can also set the number of columns manually, and if you choose two columns, you can use Book Mode.
With scroll-binding in vim, you can edit two files side by side: scroll-binding in Vim.
