Hi!
I'm not sure if I'm right, but according to what I remember from my school days long time ago the meaning of horizontal and vertical is inverted in some places of U++.
Let's take the window splitter in TheIDE. Splitting horizontal should be from the left to the right of the screen (Horizontal is along the horizon, which is where the sun rises and sets.), but it shows a split from top to bottom, which is vertical in my opinion.
The same I find in the RectTracker for horizontal and vertical line and maybe some other places.
Am I right or wrong?
Actually not a big issue. I just came accross when playing with Splitter during the weekend.

Well, with splitter, I think it is quite a debatable what is vertical and what horizontal.... If I remember well, the question asked was "How it splits the area?".
|
I remember that when I started to use the splitter first time I had the same feelings about it as Zaurus now. And I still have  . I prefer thinking about splitter as line on screen not as "How it splits the area?". That's my opinion.

OK, ok. Perhaps I made a mistake.... (not for the first time).
In this very case, I am afraid we will have to live with it 
|
Too many existing apps to fix ? Anyway, like Zaurus said it is not a big problem. Perhabs if it could be possible to add splitter in layout editor (in visiable way) it would be easier for newcomers. But I suppose it is not so easy to implement that..
