Go to definition in source

Postby raphael » Wed Mar 31, 2004 10:25 am

Is there any way to make it not go to the definition in the source when a widget is selected in the design view?
For example, if I am somewhere in the source code and I want to check the variable name of a widget, I go to design view, select the widget and look at its variable name. But when I go back to source it is at the definition of the widget. I have to then navigate back to where I was in the source.
This can be annoying at times. Just switching quickly to the design view and back to source loses my place.
I think it may be worthwhile to add an option to turn this off. I can always go to the definition of a widget if I want by selecting the "Open definition" button.

No, but it would be easy to add an option to supress that feature.

We refreshed the beta today and this feature is now in place.
