Description Victor Porton 2015-11-11 17:29:54 UTC
Please consider to allow setting of persistent selection mode per buffer view.

A use case: I split a window vertically, set a persistent selection mode (if I could I were set it in one view only), select a part of text with which I need to work, and using the other view do "replace all" in the buffer with persistent selection several times.

Reproducible: Always

Dear user, this wish list item is now closed, as it wasn't touched in the last year and no contributor stepped up to implement it.

The Kate/KTextEditor team is small and we can just try to keep up with fixing bugs.

Therefore wishes that show no activity for a years or more will be closed from now on to keep at least a bit overview about 'current' wishs of the users.
If you want your feature to be implemented, please step up to provide some patch for it.

If you think it is really needed, you can reopen your request, but keep in mind,
if no new good arguments are made and no people get attracted to help out to implement it,
it will expire in a year again.

We have a nice website https://kate-editor.org that provides all the information needed to contribute, please make use of it.

Patches can be handed in via https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
