Erel, you really should give us a Christmas present.

I just happened to notice a peculiarity of the IDE, which I'd like you to change.

I won't write what it is; I'd rather ask you to...
search all the "Wish" list about the IDE and implement the requested changes, the ones you consider most "interesting," obviously.

I know there are a lot of them and I imagine modifying the IDE is one of the most difficult and "tedious" things to do, but they would really come in handy.

[In Italian, I wrote "rognose"; I didn't know the English translation and it was translated as "tedious," but it's not very accurate]

I won't write what it is;

I changed my mind, that's what I didn't know:

That's what we see; but this is what the Windows clipboard will contain if we copy those logs:

clspagLogin - 32: Unknown member: username
B4XMainPage - 73: Unknown member: username

It's true that if we click on one of the rows, the editor will position itself on that class's row, which is very useful, but it would also be useful if that log window were a table with columns and headers.
Imagine it like this:

Click "Module" and the errors will be sorted by module (there are only two there, but when there are many, they are not sorted by module).


More generally, I think there are many "Wish"(es) regarding those windows; for example, even the "Quick Search" results would be better displayed in a table, with resizable columns, so that the entire module name can be read:

(it's simple in the image, but if you have multiple modules whose names start with the same letters, you wouldn't understand).
