The Quick Assist view supports you when executing refactorings and ABAP quick fixes, or when generating ABAP source code.
It interacts directly with the ABAP source code editor. At every position where a quick assist can be applied, the content of the Quick Assist view is therefore automatically updated according to the selection made.
As an alternative to the Quick Fix (Ctrl 1) menu, the Quick Assist view (Ctrl Shift 1) provides a permanent view of the available quick assists.
The layout of the Quick Assist view is divided into the following areas:
Before Exececution
You want to change the visibility of method drive. When you select the method name, the possible quick assists are displayed in the Proposals area. If you select one of these, additional information is displayed in the area below.
After Exececution
After double-clicking the proposal or selecting Apply Proposal from the context menu, the method definition is moved to the private section of the ABAP class.
The tree in the Proposals area is updated to the quick assists that are now available at the selected cursor position.
If the quick assist is applied without any errors, the Previous Result area is highlighted in green for two seconds. Here, also the status with the last execution date and the insertion result of the performed changes are now displayed. You can navigate from here directly to the positions where changes have been performed in the source code editor.
