Zend Studio
Posted: Tue Jul 25, 2006 1:46 am
I downloaded a trial version of Zend Studio professional, and I plan on using it for the trial period and purchasing it if I like it. There are two things bugging me about it though, and maybe I can clear them up in here.
1. The main reason I am considering switching to it is because it has code folding that isn't broken. Quanta is quirky with code folding. The problem (with Zend code folding) is that sometimes when I am editing a function in a class, it will unfold every function below where I am typing. It's a pain to fold them all back up again. Anyone know what would cause that?
2. The fonts aren't hinted. I feel like I am looking an a very old computer program. I have MS Cleartype turned on but apparently this has no effect on Zend Studio. That might be a deal breaker right there. I don't want to stare at ugly text all day.
I realize there is already a favorite editor thread, and that is not what this should become. I'm only looking to hear from people who have used the Zend editor or can answer these questions.
