By default, there may not be more than 10 items in the history of a development window. It means that combo boxes in the [[Main address bar|address bar]] will let you choose between at most 10 possibilities. You can change this number.
|
||||
To do so, use the [[Preference window overview|preference window]] : select '''Preferences''' in the '''Tools''' menu. Then in the preferences tree, select the "Browsing tools "sub-category in the "Tools" category. On the right part of the window, a list of preferences will appear, including "number of items displayed in the history combo boxes". Click on this item and enter the new value.

Every class in your system inherits from <eiffel>ANY</eiffel>. <eiffel>INTEGER</eiffel>, like other classes that represent basic types, is very often a supplier of the classes the user wrote. It may therefore not be interesting to display classes such as <eiffel>ANY</eiffel> or <eiffel>INTEGER</eiffel> in [[Diagram tool: Introduction|BON diagrams]] .
|
||||
EiffelStudio allows you to customize a list of classes that it has to ignore when it creates diagrams. This list is stored in the [[EiffelStudio preferences: Introduction|preferences]] . To modify it, first open the [[Preference window overview|preferences window]] by choosing '''Preferences...''' in the '''Tools''' menu. Select then the "context tool" sub-category of the "Tools" category in the preferences tree. On the right, you will then see a table of preferences, which includes "Show ALL classes in the diagram" and "Names of classes that should not appear in generated diagrams". If "Show ALL classes in the diagram" is not False, click on it and set it to False. Then click on "Names of classes that should not appear in generated diagrams" and edit the list. Class names must be separated by semicolons.

By clicking on, or by [[Pick-and-drop mechanism|dropping a pebble]] on the external editor toolbar button( [[Image:command-send-to-external-editor-icon]] ), you can launch an external editor. By default, this editor is VI on Unix and Notepad on Windows. You can tell EiffelStudio to launch another editor by editing the preferences.
|
||||
To do so, first open the [[Preferences Reference|preferences window]] by choosing '''Preferences...''' in the '''Tools''' menu. Select then the "Global preferences" category in the preferences tree. Click on "Command used to launch an external editor" and modify the command line so that it calls your favorite editor. You can use keywords that represent the filename ($target)and the line number ($line) as is explained in the [[Preferences Reference|preferences reference]] .

There may be up to 26 buttons in the [[Main toolbars|standard toolbar]] and up to 17 in the [[Main toolbars|project toolbar]] . All those buttons are not shown by default though. Only 16 icons are displayed in the default standard toolbar for instance.
|
||||
It is possible to choose which button are shown and in which order they appear in the toolbars. To do so, use [[Toolbar customization|toolbar customization]] windows. they appear when you choose '''Customize standard toolbar...''' or '''Customize project toolbar...''' in the toolbars sub-menu of the View menu or in the contextual menu of the toolbars (which is displayed when you right-click in the empty space on the right of the toolbars).

By default, [[EiffelStudio Editor Introduction|the editor]] and the [[EiffelStudio window overview|context tool]] are [[Centering tools on a component|centered]] on the same cluster, class or feature. It is possible to make the context tool independent from the editor. It has then its own address bar and can display information on a totally different component than the one on which the editor is centered.

To do so, click on or select '''Isolate context tool''' in the '''View''' menu. To go back to the previous configuration, click on the same icon again or select '''Merge context tool''' in the '''View''' menu.
