Editor: Goto Subroutine Right Click Menu

Post by JRL » Tue Aug 02, 2016 2:45 pm

Good morning,

In the editor if I have a big script I often use "Variable/Code Explorer" found under the "Tools" menu item to find a particular subroutine. However, there is also a very handy tool found in the right click menu that is "Goto subroutine name". This is available at the bottom of the menu if one right clicks on a script line that is a GoSub> line. The issue is when the GoSub> has additional parameters, the "Goto subroutine name" menu item does not work. It will display the subroutine name and all of the parameters but selecting the menu item does not "Goto" to the subroutine.

I'm wondering if the right click function could be made to ignore the subroutine additional parameters and run even when parameters are present.

Thanks for listening,
Dick

Very cool!
I never knew about those options.

Is there any way for it to work across files?
ie; FileA includes FileB and the subroutine is in FileB
