Binding a key to a succession of commands

[wledoux]

Hi everyone,

While the Find panel is opened, I wanted F3 to close that panel before going to the next match.
The only thing that I got to work was this:

Code: Select all

import sublime,sublime_plugin
class findNextHidePanelCommand(sublime_plugin.WindowCommand):
   def run(self):
      self.window.run_command("hide_panel")
      self.window.run_command("find_next")


Code: Select all

keymap FILE:
   { "keys": ["f3"], "command": "find_next_hide_panel", "context":
      [{"key": "panel", "operand": "find"}, {"key": "panel_has_focus"}]
   },

Is there a simpler way to do this, for example inside of the keymap file ?

Thank you for you help
William.

You can always record a macro (ctrl+q)...
Take a look at the Default folder and .sublime-macro files.

This is the first solution I tried. Since I did not find how to store a recorded macro in a file, I created a .sublime_macro file containing the following:

Code: Select all

[
   {"command": "hide_panel"},
   {"command": "find_next"}
]


But when I tried it, I had errors in the output

Code: Select all

Unknown macro command hide_panel
Unknown macro command find_next

After you record a macro, you go to tools->save macro.

I tried the save macro menu, but no explorer window appeared, and I understand now that it was because the macro failed to record.
So how do you proceed for recording such a macro ?
I tried:

• Open the Find panel and make a valid search
• press ctrl+q (status = "starting to record macro")
• press F3 to find the next match
• press echap to close the find panel
• press ctrl+q (status is "starting to record macro" again...)

Should I conclude that this was the easier way to do it, after all ?
I was expecting something like the code below to work, but It executed only one of the commands (the last one if I remember correctly).

Code: Select all

{ "keys": ["f3"], "command": "find_next", "command": "hide_panel", "context":
      [{"key": "panel", "operand": "find"}, {"key": "panel_has_focus"}]
},
