PhpED PHP IDE :: Question - Trait and code completion

Hello everyone,

Due to PHP not having multiple inheritance, I am using Trait for complex class composition where final interfaces for composed classes bring up features of many traits composed.

Alas in PHPEd editing trait does not allow you to see code completion from other classes (like possible parent class(es) for composed class) and their traits, code completion shows nothing from them for $this / self::

Thus the question, is there any way in PHPEd to hint classes and traits related to specific trait so they can be assumed local inside that trait for code completion? Maybe there's some specific comment hints syntax for that?

I.e.

Code:

class X {
use Y;

function someX($x, $y)
{
$this->someY($x, $y);
}
}

trait Y {
function someY($a, $b)
{
$this->someX($a, $b);
}
}

When I edit class X, I obviously can see $this->someY() in code completion as trait Y is included.
But when I edit trait Y, I want to also see $this->someX() from class X, as trait is intended to be composed into X (or parent of X, or possibly with other traits that also need to be seen), but alas, I am missing a way for code completion to see it.
Thus I have to track calls that are supposed to exist in other levels of composition manually, and that's frustrating

Hi,

is there any chance to support changing text color in DBG window for updated variables?
It is a very useful feature and I use it regularly, but default red color is hardly legible, particularly for highlighted item - see screen bellow.
I did not not find any option in theme color .. did I miss it ?

Thank you.

Hello.

I just received the notification about the release of NuSphere PhpED version 22.0.0.

Nothing different from the previous one, but …

Like previous ones, this message include the following sentence:

Quote:

I like very much this sentence.

Indeed, not only has Twitter not been called Twitter for a while, but also, nothing has been posted on this Twitter profile since July 30, 2014.
