I'm trying to get used to this new editor having been used to PE5 for so long and running across a few things that I'm stumbling over, making things take longer than they should to do:
1) Quitting the Serial Terminal asks me if I want to quit, can't find out how to stop asking me every time.
2) If you try and syntax check (F4) or program a chip (F5) and there's an error in the code, the resulting popup window can't be closed by simply & quickly pressing space or return like the Syntax Check Successful popup window. I have to press OK with the mouse or press tab first to highlight the OK button and then press space or return.
3) I prefer the indentation of my code to be done with single spaces, this editor automatically puts a tab in when you press return to make a new line within a nested piece of code, I can't find any option to make it a single space instead of tab which takes up the equviilant of 6 spaces. This is perhaps the most annoying feature of the new editor. Nevermind, found the setting
4) It would be nice if the editor recognised you put "#picaxe 40x2" in the code and so adjusted the Workspace Explorer to select the 40x2 rather than having to manually go in and change it to 40x2 (or whatever type you put in the code).
