I've several people saying it is slow for them. That is the first priority. And I still want the colorization. Incidentially taking out the colorization did not speed editor up for one of these people. Also be sure that you can still get the ex.err statement positioned in the editor at the correct procedure and line. >- You should be able to change size of properties and tool box window. That has been asked for if you mean while IDE is running. If you want it a different size all the time, then there are 2 statements that you change in the body of IDE.exw (createOutlookBar and createPropList last 2 params in each is width and height). You would also need to change the PropertySheet and IconBar window sizes. >- Besides properties and tool box window there should be also a treeview >which would list all project files by categories. Yes a treeview has also been asked for. What categories? I've not had a chance to learn about treeview yet since working on IDE. If you or anyone want to work that up, go for it! Please, if anyone wants to contribute to the IDE do so. I'm hoping to get a new version (.9M) out Sunday/Monday. It fixes a slew of problems.
