2019-03-07 09:09:27 -0500 marked best answer Deleting/Moving Files (sorted)

I feel that I am missing something !

I am using the project manager to develop a small app and on occasions I have created variations of files to test out options. I then wish either to delete the file completely or move it to an 'archive' area that can be cleared later. Obviously I can do this using a file manager but it would be nice to be able to do it from the project tab where I can create or rename. Deleting/Excluding from the project is OK but leaves files  'lying around'.

I suspect that this can be done quite easily but I can't see how !

2019-03-07 09:03:13 -0500 marked best answer Transient/non-sticky mode - what is Hidden/auto-close

A very minor question.

I've just decided (after some years) to refresh my knowledge of Wing (Pro6) by going through the latest tutorial.

got to "Transient, Sticky, and Locked Files - Wing opens files in one of several modes in order to keep more relevant files open, while auto-closing others. To see this in action, right-click on os in import os at the top of example1.py and select Goto Definition. The file os.py will be opened non-sticky, so that it is automatically closed when hidden."

my question - What defines 'hidden' (or auto-close in this context). Having opened a a module file R/O it stays as a tab in the editor until I close it in the same manner as other files(only with a horizontal pin!) .

What am I missing ??

ps . It's a good idea to redo the tutorial - I'd forgotten a lot of detail.

2019-03-07 08:44:43 -0500 marked best answer Identifying project containing specific files

Over the last few years I have used Wing to create a number of applications but have not been good in documenting them or using meaningful project names.

Generally I have saved project files in one directory. I use both Python 2 & 3.

Is there any way I can identify the project which contains a specific file (eg myapp2.py) ?

2019-03-07 08:22:31 -0500 marked best answer Set Remote Python Version

I'm just starting to explore running Wing on a remote Rapberry Pi (3B+).

I've made a start but there's a lot to learn !1st problem - when I try to run the remote python shell it uses 2.7. How do I get it to use 3.5 as standard. ?

The project properties just says 'remote' I'm sure the answer is there somewhere but where ?

TIA

Running (X)Ubuntu 18.04I wish to use my Wing application (Wing Pro 6.0.12-1) to debug programs on my Pi 3B+.

I have connected by SSH (no login) and can edit programs quite happily. (ssh login ssh pi@192.168.0.37)

I've also established sshfs file sharing.

I'm now trying to set up a debug link.

I've performed each operation up to the 'ssh reverse tunnel.

When I enter : ssh -N -R 50005:localhost:50005 pi@192.168.0.37

the command hangs.

50005 is the port on my PC50050 is the port on the Pi

Not sure what to try next !

2019-03-06 21:50:55 -0500 marked best answer View variables in imported module

I'm importing a module containing control variables for a program and I wonder whether there is a way of interrogating them at a breakpoint (as with 'Stack Data')

from pgvars import Pgvars as pgv
.
.
if pgv.value_1 == 'A':
    pgv.Value_2 = '123'
else:
    pgv.value_2 = 'abc'
.
if pgv.value_2 == 'abc'    # breakpoint

at the breakpoint I can display the individual variables in 'debug probe'.

Is there a way of viewing all variables in 'pgv' ?

I feel that this is an elementary question but can't find an answer.

I'm running Python 3.5 on Xubuntu 18.04 using Wing Pro 6.1.2.1

2019-03-06 06:53:47 -0500 marked best answer Adding item to editor 'Right-click Editor Menu'

I am running Wing-Pro 6.4.1 on a xubuntu 16.04  Linux system.

I would like to add an option to the 'Right-click Editor Menu' which would generate the 'Super+Z' key combination.('Super' key === 'Windows' key)

This would display my clipboard manager (xfce Clipman) and enable me to paste miscellaneous clipboard data.

The documentation says that the menu can be modified using a script but I'm not sure what command to use.
