It would be nice to be able to quickly filter out inherited methods, properties, events, and config params and just show unique to that class items.

For example, on Ext.form.NumberField provide a toggle checkbox "show inherited" or similar. When not checked we could see just the 12 items that are from NumberField. When checked, the API would show the 150+ other items it inherits from TextField, Component, Field, Observable, and BoxComponent.

It would make it alot easier to see what a class does and quickly determine if it's the class we are looking for when poking around trying to find the right item to do a job.

Thanks

This feature has been there since V2 of the API docs was released!

Don't you go round clicking and right clicking on everything you think looks like it might do something?

As Nige said, it's already there.
