On github page you say "If you have any previous version installed, unregister and register/compile the new ones.", do you mean to use regsvr32.exe to unregister the dll?

So "I don't have any plans to keep working on them..." then means they are "up for grabs" to make my own improvements, with small risk of code conflicts from from future upgrades/updates?

Thank you very much for your contributions.
I also use them every day.

Yes. I recomend that cause they have different names and to avoid any conflict between version or having duplicates. But I dont really know what happen if you just register/compile the new ones cause the class id of the AddIns are the same as the older versions.

So "I don't have any plans to keep working on them..." then means they are "up for grabs" to make my own improvements, with small risk of code conflicts from from future upgrades/updates?

No. I took a break from vb6 for a while to work on other projects (not vb6 related). Big chances are that when I'm back to vb6 coding I will want to enhance them or fix any bug left.
Feel free to experiment with them and if you have any suggestion just post it here.

The AddIns only work in the MDI environment? I have no experience with AddIns. Is it difficult to adapt the functions to the SDI environment?

I never tested them on SDI so probably some of them will have problems with positioning. Document map and Form Resizer should work fine I think. Also not sure about support for high DPI or multi monitors (need more tests for this)

Hello. Thanks for addons, but on the page "https://shagratt.github.io/VB6ideAddins" I can’t find links to download. Can you help?

Look again. There's a link near the bottom of the page that specifically says "DOWNLOAD". Not sure where the confusion lies.

-Document Map (v2.2)

Thanks for these shagratt !!! the Document Map has proven indispensible for large projects.
Recently I was looking for ways to denote sections in giant pages of code besides just a

'--------------------------===========================================================---------------------------
'--------------------------===========================================================---------------------------
'//                                             STATUS BAR
'--------------------------===========================================================---------------------------
'--------------------------===========================================================---------------------------

Which got me thinking about ASCII art. I tried every AI ascii art generator and they simply won't write the text you specify.

So I went old school and found this on github.

I picked a few different styles you can actually read from the Document Map, and it adds an element of fun to the code.
Cheers

I'm so glad that you enjoy it as much as I do. There is a lot of AddIns that I dont use much and ended disabled over the time, but Document Map its a must! I'm really proud of how it ended being so usefull and it was my first try at Addins!

I use Shagratt's primarily for the map. I tried the other functionality, code folding &c and they were all good but the only indispensible add in, for me, was the map.
