Could you please explain that? How have you setup your clippings so
that tabbing between parameters works?
Charlie
BBEdit includes a feature called "placeholders". Placeholders are any
text surrounded by <# and #>. When you select "Go to Next
Placeholder" from the Search menu, the text (and the markers) are
selected. In the example below, the "width" parameter would be
selected and you could immediately start typing its value, replacing
the placeholder with the actual required value (which in a real-world
scenario would probably be a variable).
<cursor position> imagecreatetruecolor ( <#int width#>, <#int
height#> )<#;#>
Placeholders have keyboard shortcuts assigned to them. Using this
technique you can navigate from one parameter to the next, adding the
required values, without the need for a mouse and with an absolute
minimum of keystrokes.
Does that help?
I'll probably add this to the instructions page as well if it does help.
