I don't know what the current state of the purpose of the Outline plugin is, but it looks extremely buggy.

If I open the code below & activate the "Outline" plugin, it outlines the wrong lines, lots of <div aren't properly recognized, like the line containing "<div id="logged_in"> (line 7) and many other irregularities.

Someone can reproduce what i mean please ?

Code here : pastebin

You can make the Outline plugin do what you want:
* open the outline plugin, e.g. via "Tools > Plugins"
* right click into the plugin panel
* chose Properties
* see EmEditor Help - How to - Plug-ins

and perhaps that for an better understanding:

(scroll down to 'Outline')

Thanks for the reply Stefan.

I'm really staying quite a noob at using EmEditor.
Perhaps i've missed it somewhere, but is there actually some kind of "Syntax Highlighting and Syntax Folding" for HTML files like in Notepad++ ?

For example, i've nowhere found an option in EmEditor (nor do i know it's actually possible in EmEditor) to highlight closing tags, including nested ones like the example below. So when the cursor in over some<div...> element, EmEditor will automatically search & highlight the corresponding closing </div> tag.

Example:


.... which works out of the box (and wonderfully well) in Notepad++ , a free editor btw.

I have always been glad to have bought this editor, but the lack of usable improvements is starting to make me regret my purchase.

I know what you mean:




but i don't know how EmEditor will aid you here.

Off topic...

Stefan,

What utility are you using to create your animated GIF demos?

Thanks

My current simple method is just this:

* screen shots: Alt+Print
(for including mouse cursor and auto-save: WinSnap's last freeware version, or IrfanView too)

* picture modification(paint/text): IrfanView's Paint-plugin or just msPaint

* Gif Anymator:
currently Gif-X 2.5 (free, portable, simple)
Workflow: New, Import all pics, set delay ms, export as GIF, done!


In the past i had used:
- Ulead GIF Animator 2
- Microsoft GIF Animator
They are both very old and can be found via google too (tip: encoderX forum)

It is currently not possible, but I believe Yutaka said in other posts that he had being working on that and maybe someday we will get this function.
Meanwhile, you can install Zen-coding on Emeditor, which allows you to use ctrl+[ to go to macting pair, or Ctrl+Shift+D to balance tag.
