Description
With text selected in an Editor window, select this option to change all selected characters to
uppercase.
With text selected in an Editor window, select this option to change all selected characters to
lowercase.
With text selected in an Editor window, select this option to invert the case for all selected
characters.
With text selected in an Editor window, select this option to re-arrange the selected text to make all
numbers in the code (i.e. device numbers, channel numbers, etc) fall into ascending sequential
order.
With one or more lines of text selected in an Editor window, select this option to toggle the selected
code to and from being a comment (by inserting two forward slashes at the beginning of the line
containing the cursor).
Note: Since the Block Comment-Uncomment command is a toggle function, to "uncomment" a
block the first character set must be a double forward slash (//). Without the double forward slash,
the selected block will be commented (rather than "uncommented).
With the cursor on one brace in an Editor window, select this option to move the cursor to the other
(matching) brace in the set.
Select this option to display dots in the Editor window to indicate "whitespaces" (spaces and tabs) in
the code. By default, this option is disabled.
Select this option to toggle the display of the end of each line of code (indicated by the characters
"CRLF"). The CRLF text displayed on the screen is the inverse of the color associated with the
"Space" character that is defined in the Preference dialog. By default, this option is disabled.
Select this option to rescan the active Source Code file, in order to rebuild the symbol information
utilized by the Auto-Complete/Auto-Suggest feature (see page 81).
Select this option to launch the Code Wizard. The Code Wizard presents a series of dialogs that
help you quickly generate various types of NetLinx code segments.
See Using the Code Wizard on page 83 for details.
Select this option to edit in Unicode. See Working with Unicode on page 97 for details.
