Have Wrapping Snippets now been completely disabled?

[Jon Fritz]

When Adobe introduced the keyword shortcuts for Snippets, they disabled the ability to make Wrapping Snippets in that version of the program (I think CC2017.0). However, any wrapping snippets I had transferred from the old version still functioned correctly in the new, though I couldn't make a keyword shortcut (no big deal).

That seems to be gone now.

I was playing around making a wrapping <code></code> tagset snippet, as a possible work-around for another thread. I pieced it together in CC2015 and after transferring it to 18.1, it doesn't wrap. Neither do any of my old wrapping snippets that used to function on double click.

I'm wondering if I have an install glitch or if Adobe has finally killed all wrapping snippets entirely in CC2018.1.

Wrapping snipppets has been removed.

Please leave a vote on below enhancement request to request the feature.

Thanks

I had already voted for that one some time ago. I also started this thread in the Ideas section of the DW forum back in 2016 when the ability to create them was removed.

Removing the ability to create, and now the ability to use, wrapping snippets was and is a mistake by the development team.

You are right. This feature has been removed, and was confirmed by the team. I will let the team know of your opinion.

Thanks,

Preran
