Return to Top of Document After Format about nova-beautify HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi Chris

Thanks for your issue report. I share your pain with the missing beautifier for Nova – I would have expected that they include something so fundamental themselves. But no, they didn't and don't plan to do so. That's why I ported the Beautify-Formatter I was used to from Brackets to Nova.

Unfortunately I'm currently a bit under water with my normal work but I will have a look at the issue as soon as I have time.

Hi Chris

Actually you don't have to "select all" and then "format", you can directly "format" without a selection which formats the whole document. But I've seen that the scroll position is off when doing so.

I now released a new version of the extension with format on save option. This also optimizes the cursor position after formatting. When you do a format on save or a format without text selection it keeps the cursor position within the document so you can just continue typing where you left off.

Hope this serves your needs.

Updated to latest version. Can't seem to get to work, maybe I have to restart? Also in settings don't see PHP which I presume is one the most popular use cases, so I imagine checking "HTML" includes PHP documents which is most all WordPress files, the most popular CMS in the world. Can try uninstalling and reinstalling maybe?

I'm sorry but PHP is not supported. JS-Beautify is not built to format PHP so I can't guarantee that when applying HTML formatting to a PHP-HTML file (a) everything will still work and (b) the format will make sense.

But I'm thinking about an option to manually specify further file/syntax types which then would allow to also add php-html at one's own risk.
