| 1 | + | # Install | |
| 2 | + | ||
| 3 | + | The package is available since Lazarus 1.5. | |
| 4 | + | ||
| 5 | + | - Go to Package \> Install/Uninstall Packages. | |
| 6 | + | - Search in **Available for installation** for *packagetabs*. | |
| 7 | + | - Select it. | |
| 8 | + | - Click on **Install selection**. | |
| 9 | + | - Save and rebuild IDE. The IDE will ask for confirmation, then it build the package, links it in and restarts itself. | |
| 10 | + | ||
| 11 | + | # Features | |
| 12 | + | ||
| 13 | + | When installed, this package replaces source editor tabs/pages with buttons sorted by package and name. It correctly places the tabs according to the "Source notebook tabs position" setting (IDE Options -\> Editor -\> Pages and Windows -\> Notebook Tabs). | |
| 14 | + | ||
| 15 | + | Both the file buttons and package titles have popup-menus with additional commands. | |
| 16 | + | ||
| 17 | + | # Recommended IDE settings changes | |
| 18 | + | ||
| 19 | + | Because the enhancement fixes the order of pages, it can be useful to remap "Ctrl+Tab" and "Ctrl+Shift+Tab" key shortcuts to "Go to previous editor in history" and "Go to next editor in history" that are by default available with "Ctrl+~" and "Ctrl+Shift+~". | |
