Remember the current procedures positions on the right panel

Hello!

This is an important feature request.

While I am working on my projects, I have them separated in different include files which I have more than one open in the PB IDE.

However, every time I click on a different tab in the IDE, the position of the procedures in the panel on the right is reset to the top.

Can't a variable be used for each tab to store which procedure is at the top of the list, so that positions never change when we click around the tabs?

Thanks!

This is extremely annoying on large projects, and I definitely hope it's implemented.

If an IDE feature is so important for you, why don't you implement it yourself? The PureBasic IDE is open source since December 2019 and is awaiting your pull requests on GitHub. Please don't wait for others to do the work for you - please try to do it yourself...

Love to do that, but have no idea how GitHub works. Maybe a tutorial on making an addition to the IDE is needed?

I, too, don't know how to submit patches to GitHub.

All I do in the open-source projects is to commit the full files to GitHub.

This is the kind of small UI improvement I would be happy to implement and submit

I haven't tried yet, but I think the hard part is needing cross-platform functions to get/set the scroll state of a ListViewGadget.

PS. The PB IDE is a great excuse to practice Git and GitHub! I've submitted patches that are just a few lines of code.
