Description (last modified by Nick Draper) (diff)

Investigate the use of autocomplete and call tips (perhaps even code folding) for use in the immediate window and python editor.

Initially we should include in the list all of the algorithms and the mtd.??? commands. Do not worry about pure python commands at the moment as that could be opening a can of worms.

(In [3958]) Added code completion, call tips and code folding to the Python environment. This is implemented via two keyword files: one pre written and the second dynamically generated by the simple API. Re #713

(In [3959]) Fix test. Re #713

(In [3991]) Fix for MantidPlot scripting autocomplete bug under Linux and earlier versions of QScintilla. Also update autocomplete sources so that it uses the current document as well. Re #713

comment:14 Changed 11 years ago by Martyn Gigg

(In [4136]) MantidPlot scripting autocomplete now inspects objects to update auto complete information after each execution. Required that each tab + the interpreter have different dictionaries so that the autocomplete only sees information for the current script. Re #713
