Some View menu items "should" be in Edit

#1

Stuck with a file with mixed tabs and spaces for indentation, it took me forever to find that the function to change that is under View, which is supposed to be about how the editor looks.

Indentation:

Half the items in this menu are about “view” - how many spaces do you want tabs to take up on screen.

However, changing content (spaces <–> tabs, “indent using space”), shouldn’t that be under the Edit menu?

Line Ending:

Is it me or isn’t this only about changing content?

Just saying.

While we’re at it, the “Code Folding” submenu should be in View rather than Edit!

there’s lots of weird menu placements in ST, I just override my Main.sublime-menu file and tweak it to how I like :wink: generally I guess the menu is considered a second-class citizen compared to the almighty command palette :stuck_out_tongue:

And in addition I override the Default/Default.sublime-commands to make the Command Pallet almighty. :wink:
