Don Keating | Two Wishes on Tue, 13 Jan 2004 17:06:50 -0500 Hi Y'all, Two features from MultiEdit I've not found in VX editor that I miss are: 1. CtrlAltC gives several options for changing text case. 2. ShiftF7 allows Mark Column. Neither are show stoppers but sure will be nice when they make their way into the features of this editor. Or, maybe they're already there and someone will tell me where. TIA, >don< | |

I'm working in my Assembly environment at the moment, so can't switch to VX env, but... ..heck, I switched envs just for you . From the help: When Alt+Shift is pressed, navigation keys are used for column marking instead of row marking. Note that the configuration switch Tools-> Editor Options-> Editor Tab-> Cursor beyond EOL should be selected for proper column marking. I don't know about case switching.

Don Keating | Re: Two Wishes on Wed, 14 Jan 2004 08:56:21 -0500 Thanks Steffen and Phil, Found the Shift-Alt and its just what I was looking for. In the process discovered two pages in the Help file, Useful Hints For Editing and Common Shortcut Keys, that had somehow escaped me. Will study both before asking more questions on those subjects. Y'all keep up the good work! CU, >don< PS Glad to have you back Phil.
