Rendered view for DocStrings and Comments in editor #153984
Open
Description
opened on Jul 2, 2022
Sources with a lot of documentation in it, it is real paradise but there is one HUGE trouble - all that mess is completely unreadable.
VSCode has a nice feature - 'Popup hints' which shows DocStrings(for example) already auto-formated and with syntax highlighting:
Rendered_Docstrings.mp4
...but all that code-mess is still there, occupies a lot of space but still is completely unreadable!
But why not to show something like this:
So i'd like to propose this new feature (well... in JetBrains' it already for a year approximatly) - Rendered Comments.
and to specify some Main Peacularities:
- Global Rendered Comments/DocStrings/etc mode toggling
- ability to toggle (with keyboard binding) Rendered Mode as for one concreate comment and for all other in the current editor
- collapse/expand rendered/raw docstring/comment with hotkeys in the current editor
- Block with Rendered Comments in editor should has the same coloring, highlighting as the existing PopUp (in regards with the current Theme)
- attempt to modify smth in the Comment Block should autoswitch it from Rendered to reggular (editable/text) mode
