I would like to make some suggestions from the VB6 IDE
Please add a Rapid Developer mode, that would be toggled (so people who don't like it, don't have to use it) and would change the behavior of the UI

-When setting the event handlers (ie: OnClick) instead of bringing up a prompt to choose which string points to the event handler code:
if the event handler has already been set: Go to the line where the code starts
otherwise: Make the Activity_Objectname_Event string, set it to Objectname_Event, and create the first and last line of code for the event ( public void Objectname_Event(View view) { } ) then go to the line where it starts

-When setting any property that uses an XML value, automatically create it for that property and just set the values.

-Add 2 combo/dropdown boxes to the top of the class for an activity
One lists all available widgets on the activity
The other lists all available events triggered by the currently selected widget from the first combo box. Any event that has an event handler will be in bold text to differentiate them from the ones without handlers
Upon selecting a widget from box #1, it automatically selects the first event with a handler from box #2 if one exists
Upon selecting an event from box #2, if it has a handler it scrolls down to the line where it starts on, otherwise it would create the event handler automatically (like the first suggestion)

This would be especially helpful for beginners or those used to Visual Studio

Reproducible: Always
