We have the Eclipse COBOL and PL/I editors to handle Eclipse behavior. Thanks.
The main problem here is that all the other text editors in Windows work consistently, but RAD redefines this behaviour and forces for a Windows user limitiations on how things work in the editor.
Now with some limitations you can live, but with next 3 mouse limitation it's really hard and it's really annoying.
1. Mouse doesn't behave as it should.
• If you select the text with mouse and move windows so that the selected text is not visible anymore, the selection vanishes.
• If you start selecting text and you scroll down with middle button, all the text from the selection point to the end of the selection should be selected. Now RAD resets starting point of the selection when you scroll down.
• When all the text is selected, left mouse click must deselect the text.
Now the only way to deselect the text when you are in 'Select All' mode is to press the Ctrl-U which is a deselect text command.
Best regards
