Does anyone know now to collapse all items in Delphi 2009 IDE structure View?
I have no idea to collapse all items and that make me hard to find my class from the view.
Thanks.
Select root node (Classes) and press / (divide sign) on the numerical keypad. That will collaps everything. Then press + (plus) key on the numerical keypad and first level will expand.
You can also play with - (minus, collapses everything but + will expand everyhing, not only the first sublevel) and * (multiply, expands everything).
Left arrow key works the same as - and right arrow key works the same as +.
Those shortcuts work the same in Windows native tree control (for example the one in the Registry Editor) and are pretty much universally useful for Windows applications that are displaying tree structure.

I'm hoping this question doesn't get deemed as a duplicate, as my question pertains to Visual Studio 2019. Not VS Code. - Move selected text to the left or right in Visual Studio Code
Is there a key binding I can use that will allow me to move any selected text in a line, left and right? Additionally to that, would it also be possible to send selected text to the start or end of a line (like Home and End key does to the cursor)
If this is possible, it would be a very handy shortcut for me to make use of. Thanks in advance.
In VS-2022, first highlight the lines you want to move, then...
to move to the right, press the TAB key. (note, that you're highlighting only 1 row, then ensure that you highlight the entire row)
to move to the left, hold SHIFT key, then (while still holding SHIFT)
press TAB key. (now release SHIFT)
This has driven me nuts for years. In the IDE, I have widened the Object Inspector (OI) to about 2-1/2" but the Columns Editor and Fields editor etc all pop-up where Borland thought I should have the width of the OI set.
I have to drag the editor off the OI every time I use them. Maybe I am getting old and grumpy, but it is beginning to wear me down.
Is there any way (hack even) I can set where these editors pop-up in D5? I don't care if it is exactly where I want them, just as long as it is not covering the OI. I tried the Ctrl-Close thing, but that did nothing.
Thanks
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.

I would like to add an icon to the header of my data grid as it is done in Thunderbird.
There is an icon that is above the vertical scrollbar, no matter the position of the horizontal scrollbar. This icon allows the setup of the columns.
In Delphi there a lot of different grid components, that allow customizations and adding icons to there cells / header cells. But I could not find any component that has an area above the vertical scrollbar that is fixed, which when clicked allows some action. I could even use the VirtualTreeView component to emulate the grid, if it turns out to be easier to customize that component.
I am looking for some guidance on what need to be done to get that functionality.
Thanks,
Thomas
VirtualTreeView in Listbox mode would be nice, because of it's speed, great documentation and ease use in MVC-like patterns. Delphi tempts to store data in the visual components themselves, which letter causes troubles. While VTW allwos the same, it also allows to acutally separate data from GUI, and i like it.
But i am surprised by your claim "which when clicked allows some action.".
Even most basic components allow it:

So could you make more detaiils, why you cannot use standard components ? with screenshot and editors, how u want it rendered, where you want to click and what kind of action should happen ?
does any one know if there is an example available for sliding panels in jquery? If so, can someone send me a link? This is what I want to accomplish.
On my main screen I want to have three divisions. One right column that covers half the screen and then the left column divided in two rows. I want to expand and/or shrink the right column and/or left column and/or the top row in the left column and/or the bottom row in the left column.
Think og it as an IDE with the left side of the coding area and right side as project explorer and the properties. The coder would like to see any three of the sections at once or would like to expand each working area.
I am looking for a jquery solution for such!
Thanks
Sounds like the way jsfiddle.net works
This is available as a plugin. http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Resizable
You could also use the jQuery splitter plugin: http://www.methvin.com/splitter/
Also see (2011): http://jcubic.wordpress.com/2011/03/06/jquery-splitter-split-container/
Flexigrid is a new (2012) option: http://flexigrid.info/
The most robust solution for this is to use the jQuery layout plugin. You can find it here: http://layout.jquery-dev.net/
