Corona Editor 1.6 Released

Corona Editor 1.6 Released

Corona Labs is happy to announce the availability of Corona Editor 1.6. This is an update for the add-on package for Sublime Text 2 and Sublime Text 3 that provides code completion, syntax highlighting, documentation, and debugging to Corona developers.

The release of 1.6 includes the following updates:

 Debugger improvements

  • Fixed an issue with a hanging after pressing Shift+F10.
  • Fixed a bug with spaces in project pathnames.
  • Current status is now displayed in the “Console” pane.
  • The “Console” output is now cleaner.
  • Generally improved reliability.

Corona Editor Project improvements

  • On OS X, Corona EditorRun Project now uses the most recent daily build in the /Applications folder by default. It will fall back to the public build if there are no daily builds.
  • Removed project “build system.” The menu command Corona EditorRun Project or the Cmd+F10(Mac) Win+F10(Windows, maybe mapped to FN+F10) key sequence is much more reliable.
  • Added Clear Build Panel command to main menu and context menu.

Editing improvements

  • Fixed indentation of elseif blocks.
  • Latest code completions are up to date to daily build 2016.2803.

    How do I update Corona Editor to 1.6? Does it auto update when I open Sublime Text?

    I wish Corona Editor had a Code Outline feature. Both Lua Glider and ZeroBrane Studio have it, and I find it invaluable.
