Thanks, applied.

I also took the opportunity to tidy up the menus a little and add access keys for accessibility.

One change I made was to make the Edit and Clear menus not have a default option - e.g. instead of a button with a drop-down next to it, they're now a single dropdown button with icon. I think this works better as there are no obvious candidates for the "default" option for those menus. I'm not overly enthusiastic about the look of those buttons though, so if anyone has a better idea how they should be styled, please yelp (CCing Chethana for his input as well)...

Just a FYI,

You need to run yarn bundle for this to be working as Surinder has moved all the CodeMirror code into bundle package.

Hi,

PFA patch which will add functionality to allow user to comment/uncomment code in query editor.

RM#2456

This is cool, but I'm not sure it's right as-is:

* I prefer SQL style commenting, e.g.

-- This is a comment

Should we make that a config option if CodeMirror can do it? Or a different hotkey?

 

I'll check the extension code and update you accordingly, and It will be good idea to keep the both the options because with large code block current style works the best.

Right.

 

* You've added it as an option to the Clear XXX dropdown, which really isn't the right place in my opinion. Should we add a new drop down for this, and include some/all of the other Editing options on there? E.g. tab/shift-tab.

I thought that is misc options dropdown for our editor, but I don't see any point adding new drop down for one single option, Can we add new button instead? 

I think you missed this bit:  "and include some/all of the other Editing options on there? E.g. tab/shift-tab.". Essentially, we'd be adding an Edit menu...

 

* I think the docs should say Ctrl+Shift+/ rather than Shift+Ctrl+/, and be ordered in the table to reflect that. It seems more natural to me.

Initially I wrote ctrl + shift + /only but when I saw all other shortcuts starts with Shift , then I changed it to shift + ctrl + / :)

No they don't - Ctrl+Alt+Left for example. I believe it's normal to put Ctrl first, then Shift as it's a modifier.

 

Thoughts?
