Does "Apply Source Formatting To Selection" option work for anyone? I have never been anble to get theis to work, "Apply Source Formatting" works fine.

 

I'm "selecting" the code I want to format and then clicking "Apply Source Formatting To Selection" but nothing happens, am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks

 

David

    I had to find the command first, it used to be under Commands.

    To answer your question, yes it does work.

    Select the code to be formatted and go to Edit > Code > Apply Source Formatting To Selection

    Following up on my previous post: I found that, as well as source code formatting not working, I just could not get multiple cursors to work as advertised. This was my first working file, so I had not tried it on others. Made me wonder if there was some sort of corruption in the file: hidden text, invalid character or whatever. So I selected all, deleted all and then did Ctrl-Z. That has been a solution in other app's and it seems to have worked here. Now the file formats OK and multiple cursors also work. This may be something to bear in mind as a solution in other cases where a code file displays abberent behaviour.

     


    The original poster has had the problem solved. If you still have a problem, it will be best that you start a new discussion, where you table all relevant information such as code.
