- Click on a 4D command, no need to highlight it all, in the method editor and press F1 to open the documentation page for the command. This is automatically version specific so if you are in v14 you get v14 docs. (Remember on macOS you probably need to press and hold the "Fn" key and then F1 for it to work.)
- Need a quick reminder of command parameters? Just hover the mouse over the 4D command name and wait for the tool tip to appear. - Need a quick reminder of parameters for a method, hover the mouse over the method name. If you have something in the method "Comments" tab it displays the first few lines; otherwise it shows the first few lines of method comments in the method code. So stop the old habit of beginning all your methods with "If (false)" and putting comments inside. That kills this feature. Always start your method with comments that include the list of parameters. - Always put parameter info at the top of the "Comments" tab for shared component methods. Then when you hover the mouse over a component method name it shows the first few lines and you will know about the parameters. - Right click process or IP process variable in a method and choose Rename. Does what it says with the option of doing it everywhere in the database. - Right click a local variable and choose "Rename" to do that in current method only. - Right click method name and choose "Rename" to do that everywhere in the database.
