Hi there,
Your 4.1 (m2) JavaScript editor looks promising. I think it will be a high quality feature. I’ve been using it for a while now and have a set of improvement suggestions (If this is not the right place to post please move the post).
1) Code formatter (finally)
– Could it be configurable. I like a empty line between my functions
– Could it insert JDoc like headers for functions
– It needs to take care of functions in objects:
var myObj = { xxx : function {} }
2) Support for custom objects (That is hard I know)
a) objects should be shown as objects not variables in the tree
b) when I type myObj{dot} I would like the list of my properties/functions
3) Running the debugger: could the window optional sit inside the IDE instead of a popup.
4) A DOM inspector mode (a la Advaark) would be nice
5) Objects awareness for variables:
var t = document.getElementById() returns a DOM object. The editor should be able to show the dom properties/methods on t{dot}
6) RUN: configuration like Java run: specifiy the file to load, so you don’t need to navigate all the time
7) Debug: Edit the dom and edit variables on the fly
Just my 2c
