[wc3] Tags

[Romek]

The tags are awesome, but I think there are 2 problems with them:

1. The font is far too big. I think it'd look better if it was smaller.
2. The text wrapping is quite annoying. Many actions take up multiple lines. It should simple use one line, and the user can scroll to the side.
   
   For example:
   
   • Example
     • Events
       • Unit - A unit Is attacked
     • Conditions
     • Actions
       • If (((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing ((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 200.00) damage of attack type Siege and damage type Universal) else do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing (((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 500.00) + 500.00) damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal)
   
   
   Whilst with code tags:
   

   Example
       Events
           Unit - A unit Is attacked
       Conditions
       Actions
           If (((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing ((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 200.00) damage of attack type Siege and damage type Universal) else do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing (((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 500.00) + 500.00) damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal)

Ability to copy and paste would be good too.

I am able to do it in Chrome.

It's text...

I'm guessing that you mean that the

• tags can be able to copy and paste the whole script into the WE. Am I right?

I hate the new tag; it is so ugly. I knew it was going to happen when enough people weren't content with the fact that the internet is not the Warcraft world editor.

Well, it's much more colourful than

Look at my boring, monotonous code in all its black-and-grey glory!

Anyway, you can always collapse the tag if you don't want to look at it

the internet is not the Warcraft world editor.

Ye, there's nothing to compile the code for us

A Firefox debugger extension might do that job for you.

Hmm.. It seems like people are commenting on everything except the comments in the first post. (The text-wrap maybe?)

 

[TriggerHappy]

We would be willing to hand ours over.

The font size looks fine to me: I don't have to take out a magnifier in order to read the text.

Text-wrapping is just perfect, it should also be applied to on CODE/PHP tags as well. There's nothing more annoying than having to scroll to read a long line, jump back to the beginning for the next one and so on.

We would be willing to hand ours over.

Just out of curiosity: mind telling me how many lines of code it takes you to achieve that result?

 

[TriggerHappy]

227 lines total ( I'm guessing you mean for the php code ) , though about 100 lines are for vbulletin stuff ( plugins,product )

The text wrapping is quite annoying. Many actions take up multiple lines. It should simple use one line, and the user can scroll to the side.

Adding white-space: nowrap to the spans fixes this. I'm not entirely sure that a scroll is any improvement, only real solution is to stop write code that looks like that...

 

[AceHart]

Don't fix what isn't broken please, thank you.

 

[TriggerHappy]

But this

• Example
  • Events
  • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
  • Actions
  • If (((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing ((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 200.00) damage of attack type Siege and damage type Universal) else do (Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Targeted unit), dealing (((Real((Level of Bash for (Triggering unit)))) x 500.00) + 500.00) damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal)

Is annoying

 

[enouwee]

I can't see what's annoying there. At least you see the whole code without scrolling.

 

[TriggerHappy]

Personally i don't like it, but.... oh well.

 

[Chocobo]

Currently if it was annoying it would be annoying in world editor since it's the same thing.

 

[TriggerHappy]

world editor since it's the same thing.

The world editor doesn't wrap text , it's on one line/
