Start your update to JADE's latest release

Add more partial class/control name matching to the IDE/Painter

In Jade 2018, the Find Type dialog, accessed via F4, now allows for partial matches based on what is typed. Similarly for the Ctrl+6 and Ctrl+7 options on the class browser for property/method names. This is a significant benefit when you have a number of classes/properties/methods starting with the same first nn characters, for example systems that have used "quasi name spacing" by prefixing all of their classes with relevant acronyms or frequent use of 3 character identifiers on the front of control names. It would be great if this behaviour could be extended to the Define Reference dialog, to make it quicker to select the desired class for a reference.

 

Update 03/05/2018 - additional places this could also be added

The 'Load Form' dialog displayed when you select 'Edit Form' in the Jade Painter

The 'Name' combo box at the top of the Jade Painter's 'Properties' dialog, to more easily select a given control on the form.

 

Update 04/06/2018 - additional places this could also be added

The Ctrl+Q quick find dialog.
