Well, I'm talking about the feature of the IDE can hide the content of a function, having a plus signal, most commonly, on the left side together with the number lines. When we click on the plus signal we can hide or show the lines of a function. With this and with a big source file would be very usefully to navigate through the file.

Oh you mean code folding No ide dosn't support this yet. I know this is popular but frankly I've never found it too useful. First thing now we want to add to TheIDE is docking engine, new assist and some quick tabs improvements.
Note that when new assist (which means, new C++ parser in fact...) is finally available, the very first thing I plan to do is left bar in editor listing all importnat points in file (functions, global variables, macro definitions). Clicking will bring you to it.
I believe that it will be much more useful than folding....

Actually, this ignited more of my thinking about the topic and I seem to have found nice heurestic approach to the problem - so it is quite likely you will see this much sooner than with new assist
