Maran23 / script-ide

Script-IDE is a plugin for Godot. It transforms the Script UI into an IDE like UI. Tabs are used for navigating between scripts. The default Outline got an overhaul and now shows all members of the script (not just methods) with unique icons for faster navigation.

Add button to toggle all types in the outline #45

It would be helpful to toggle all off/on in the script outline

I don't see any usecase why you would toggle all properties off. Checking other IDEs, I don't see any that has this feature. So this does not seem like a usecase that people will often need, and it is easy to 'workaround'.

Hi @Maran23

Sorry if I wasn't clear in the use case, and maybe the initial suggestion isn't the best solution.

I want to be able to only toggle one at a time. Currently I have to unclick everything and then re-click it when I am done looking at that one specific type. While doable, it takes a few more clicks than most would like.

The suggestion of a toggle all off/on would provide a two click approach (turn all off, then turn one on) to get to the desired state, and then one click to get back (toggle all on).

Maybe a better solution would be to provide a shortcut ctrl+click to "only enable this type" and "enable all" if only that type was enabled.

I enjoy this plugin and how simple it is and appreciate you sharing/open sourcing it! Happy to help work on a solution as well

I see, thanks for the example. I'm not yet sure how do that in a way that is obvious for all users. AFAIK, no other IDE has this kind of functionality, but the needs in Godot are also quite different from other, regular programming languages. I will think about it, maybe someone has an idea UX wise.

Could a right click be used to disable the others but enable a single filter? Then a new button doesn't need to be made, left click to toggle an individual filter, right click to disable all others and enable only the one that was right clicked on.

I believe right click is the standard for this. I cant really think of any IDEs that have it because I dont typically use filtering, but it can be seen in other software. In FL Studio for example you can mute individual tracks or you can solo a single track (which mutes all other tracks). Left clicking will disable/mute the track. Right clicking will mute all other tracks. Right clicking on the same track again will unmute all the tracks

Alright, since more and more people like this idea and proposed a right click, I will implement this as you guys discussed.

That is: Right click -> Enable the selected filter button, disable all others

If already enabled (and the other disabled), the right click has no effect. Or other buttons are enabled again.

So I downloaded and checked out FL Studio and can verify the behaviour as mentioned by @Changryy. I think this makes sense, therefore I implemented it the very same way. :)
