Saving a code block as a snippet
A code snippet is a block of code or content that you store for reuse. You
can comment your snippets just as you would any code block.
To create a code snippet:
1. Before adding a snippet, you must create a folder. To do so, click
the Snippets tab in the Resources window, right-click in the Snippets panel,
and select Create Folder.
You can create additional folders as needed. The default location
for snippets is the \UserData\Snippets folder below your root directory.
2. Enter a name for the folder.
3. Right-click in the Snippets pane and select Add Snippet to open the
Snippet dialog box.
4. Enter a name for the snippet in the Description box. Note that
snippet names cannot contain characters that are illegal in filenames, such
as slashes, special characters, or double quotes.
5. In the Start Text window, enter or paste an opening code block. You
can set a default spacing between the blocks by pressing the Enter key at
the end of the start text and at the beginning of the end text.
6. In the End Text window, enter a closing code block.
7. Click OK.
Because snippets can be created as start and end blocks, you can use them to
surround other tags and content. This is handy for inserting special
formatting, navigation elements, and script blocks. Simply highlight the
content you want to surround, then insert the snippet.
To insert a code snippet, do either of the following:
* Double-click an entry in the Snippets panel.
* Right-click and select Insert into document from the popup menu.
To edit or delete a code snippet:
* Right-click the snippet and choose the appropriate command (Edit or
Delete) from the snippets shortcut menus.
To manage code snippets and snippet folders:
* Use the snippets shortcut (right-click) menus.
Sharing snippets
You can share code snippets with other developers by giving them access to a
shared folder on your computer or on another network computer.
To create a shared snippets folder:
1. Open Options > Settings > Locations.
2. In the Shared Snippets box, click Browse and navigate to the shared
folder location and click OK.
3. In the Snippets panel, right-click, and select Create Shared Folder.
The folder toolbutton changes color to show that it is shared.
Anyone with access to the shared folder can now add, edit, and delete
snippets.
Assigning a shortcut key to a snippet
Open the Options > Customize dialog box and select the Snippet Shortcuts tab
to enable a keyboard shortcuts for a snippet. Select a snippet and press
keys to enter the combination in the box at the bottom.
If a combination is in use, the current command appears below the shortcut
box. To overwrite a combination, click Apply.
