Incremental resize (instead of using numbers) #141

Open matiasmorant opened 6 years ago

matiasmorant commented 6 years ago

I would like that panes could be resized be pressing hotkeys instead of entering numbers

for example, in current pane, ["command+k", "-+rightarrow"] would decrease the size of the current pane by moving the right edge a fixed amount. ["command+k", "++uparrow"] would increase the size of the current pane by moving the top edge a fixed amount.

I don't think you can use - and + as modifier keys - you can only use the normal modifier keys. I also think it would be difficult to use this multiple times in a row; i.e. you would have to press ["command+k", "++uparrow"], ["command+k", "++uparrow"], etc., rather than ["command+k", "++uparrow"], ["++uparrow"], etc. (this is a limitation of Sublime Text). I'm just not sure what a good set of shortcuts for this would be.

Gnome does it the following way for resizing windows (i don't know if it's possible in sublime)

Hotkey1 : enters window resizing mode Then any number of times: Arrows: select one of the four edges +- : expand or shrink that edge Esc: exit window resizing mode

Also I like the idea of having a shortcut for entering into "origami mode", to avoid having to press Command+k many times for doing several origami actions on a row. Vintage mode already implements stateful/modal functionality for sublime
