@jgmdev, first off, would you kindly double-check that Line Wrapping and Line Guide are working correctly in Pragtical? I've got both Line Guide and Line Wrapping enabled, but the text won't wrap at column 80 when I press F10 to invoke soft line wrapping at the ruler position at column 80 as specified in Line Guide (the line guide line is displayed correctly for Line Guide, but the toggle for guide in Line Wrapping does nothing for me). I have tested with Pragtical 3.7.0 and 3.9.0 and both behave the same, while ecode 0.8.0 respects soft wrapping against ruler (screenshot).
As the issue title says, this request is related to centerdoc plugin. See, I'd like to mimic iA Writer (also epy & repy readers), which is very close to "zen" of centerdoc plugin:
At the moment I cannot get Pragtical to achieve it, and I don't know if that's related to Line Guide & Line Wrapping limitation or bug.
Ultimately, the centerdoc plugin enhancement request would be to introduce an additional enhanced "zen" mode called "writer" mode with the following changes over regular "zen" mode:
- make "writer" mode work in windowed mode, both windowed and maximized, (currently it works only in fullscreen)
- allow user to specify left and right padding for "zen" mode (and word/letter wrapping) in number of columns and in % of columns, make this togglable with hotkey
- allow user to specify top and bottom margin window's viewport, make this togglable with hotkey
- allow user to toggle minimap in "writer" mode
- allow user to toggle both window frame (as shown in screenshot of the preview mode of iA Writer) in "writer" mode both for Pragtical proprietary and and system frames
- allow user to toggle highlighting of current line in "writer" mode
- optionally, allow user to specify minimum line width for "writer" mode
Here's a draft of the idea:
Proposed "writer" mode for centerdoc plugin
Default mode of centerdoc plugin
I understand that similar output should be possible to implement y specific configuration of Pragtical and maybe even having a separate application instance just for this mode. However toggling such mode will be so much more conprehansive to use it daily.
