Improvement Suggestion

I'm finding coding using DeisgnScript quite tedious when I have written lots of code (see image for an example). The code block cant be resized, and when I zoom in to see my code, the scroll bar is out of view...so I have to zoom out, move it, zoom back in. Its very disruptive when coding and problem solving. I end up simply selecting the text to nudge the view across to avoid this behaviour.

The other issue is simply finding the right block of code to do updates or troubleshoot definitions...where is it...more zooming in and out. No find tool. Its arduous to say the least.

My suggestion is to have a dockable text editor panel which is capable of 'collecting' all the DesignScript defs. Should then be easy to implement a find/replace tool. Anonymous code blocks can remain put to avoid 'muddying' the text editor.
