Do you use the line numbering panel?

Question

IDE

Hello. Do you use the line numbering panel in your favorite IDE, and if so, what is the reason you can't opt ​​out of it?

Answer 1

Sorry, but your question is right out of the category: "Those who write from left to right answer. Why can't you give up such a habit of yours? I have Arab friends and they say that writing from right to left is much more convenient" :)
It's just designed that way IDE. It seemed to some creators that it was a good idea to number the lines, while others felt that it took up extra space and displaying the number in the status would be enough.
Also, do not forget about the very specifics of programming in different languages. For OOP languages, it is considered bad manners when a code listing is more than one screen (and there are less than a hundred small files in the project directory). At the same time, for 1C at the time of 7.7, only one module was available, where EVERYONE wrote, and in recent releases there are many common modules, but their sizes often still go off scale for hundreds of thousands of lines of code. Those. a 2-character side panel doesn't seem to interfere much, but with a width of 6-7-8 it's somehow not very good, especially at the beginning of the module, where most of the panel is completely empty. And if you consider that for 1C you almost always need to look at other additional side panels (metadata tree, property panel, syntax assistant), then the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe struggle for workspace becomes clear.

Answer 2

Yes. Remembering approximately the line number so that you can return to it in a second is much easier than sticking bookmarks and then getting confused in them.
