Use
The Front-End Editor supports various display settings:
-
Changed lines indicator
This feature allows you to see which parts of the code have been changed during the current session and which have been saved.
-
Line numbers
This feature helps you to navigate through the code. It also helps you to notice wrapped lines, when you are in word wrap mode.
-
Protected areas
This feature allows you to define part of the document as read-only. It displays the area in a different color and an additional symbol appears in the margin.
-
Current line highlighting
This feature allows you to find the current cursor position in the document.
-
White space
This feature allows you to see hidden symbols such as spaces, tabs, and line breaks.
-
Vertical and horizontal scroll bars
You can hide or display both vertical and horizontal scroll bars.
-
Page Width indicator
This feature allows you to use the page width to check the length of your lines and to see if they are inside a defined range.
-
Structure separators
This feature allows you to see the end of high-level structures (function, subroutine, class, method and so on). It separates them from one another and facilitates the navigation.
