Casual questions

Hello there,
I think I'll buy this product because it's much more complete than Sublime or whatever.
It reminds me good the old times of FlashDevelop.
However I have some questions (about the windows version)

1) Is there a way to remove the scroll down and scroll up animations of the editor? You'll notice it more if you press pgup or pgdown.

2) Is there a way to change the color of the highlight of the current line in the editor? I've tried by looking for "current line", "highlight" and so on in the settings but probably I've missed the correct setting.

3) Is there a way to associate (for example) the key F1 to open a browser with the google search of the current word under the caret? For example on Flashdevelop if I press F1 over the word "MouseEvent" it opens a browser windows with a search of "actionscript 3.0 flash.events MouseEvent MouseEvent help.adobe.com livedocs.adobe.com".

4) Is there a way to hide/remove the "collapse"/"expand" little buttons on the editor?

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

1) Is there a way to remove the scroll down and scroll up animations of the editor? You'll notice it more if you press pgup or pgdown.

Settings | Editor | Smooth scrolling ?

2) Is there a way to change the color of the highlight of the current line in the editor? I've tried by looking for "current line", "highlight" and so on in the settings but probably I've missed the correct setting.

Settings | Editor | Colors & Fonts | General | Caret Row

3) Is there a way to associate (for example) the key F1 to open a browser with the google search of the current word under the caret? For example on Flashdevelop if I press F1 over the word "MouseEvent" it opens a browser windows with a search of "actionscript 3.0 flash.events MouseEvent MouseEvent help.adobe.com livedocs.adobe.com".

Settings | Keymap | Other | Search with Google (but you may need to select the word/text first)

If it's not a random text but specific class/function/etc and it has external documentation link provided in the stubs .. then try "View | External Documentation" (works fine for PHP stuff that have @link defined, e.g. ob_end_flush() or CSS stuff, e.g. box-shadow: ; not sure about other languages). For this one no need to make any selection as it works on element under caret.

4) Is there a way to hide/remove the "collapse"/"expand" little buttons on the editor?

Settings | Editor | Code Folding | Show code folding outline
