Ah amazing thank you! I pulled the latest and reloaded GMEdit and it works great.

I did initially try the "reload" link for the plugin in Preferences, but it just brings up a blank white window and nothing happens. Might be an Electron problem?

One thing I did notice is I cannot close the Aside that comes up (via Peek Aside) after creating the script, as there is no Hide Aside option in the right-click menu as there usually is. Worked around it by closing the tab for the script. Normal Asides can be hidden fine.

“reload” is supposed to unload-load the plugin (it does not check for updates), but this plugin does not implement that correctly. It would take a few paragraphs to explain how that ends up opening a popup window.

Peek Aside’s asides do not have a context menu entry - they are closed by pressing Esc while they are focused.

Yeah that's what I'd expect reload to do but it's no biggie :)

Is Peek Aside different from the Show aside context menu option? Those can't be closed by Esc but do have a Hide aside context menu option. Maybe I misunderstood that this was different from what this plugin uses.

Looking at the shortcuts for Peek Aside it seems they don't work on Mac. Alt + F1 (Opt + F1 on mac) opens the Displays part of my Preferences application instead. I have been using the context menu this whole time, but perhaps that's different. I expect this belongs as a comment under that plugin - sorry for getting off-topic.

Esc works for this plugin's version of Aside though so thanks for that! All sorted.

Edit: Ah yes I see it's show-aside that's adding the context menu.

Peek Aside is separate from Show Aside - its usual function is to open a resource for quick inspection, kind of like “Peek Definition” works in other editors or how Inspector now works in GM IDE.

You can change the keyboard shortcut in preferencesю
