Re: Is there a way to ignore a node in an outline

[Jacob Peck]

One way in Python would be, in a parent node to both your old and new nodes: if False:   << old node name >> else:   << new node name >> (Using << section references >> to pull in the contents of those nodes at the proper indentation levels.) The node isn’t truly *ignored*, but since the False is effectively a constant in this situation, it will never be executed. I use this pattern all the time when refactoring things. I believe Edward uses it in the Leo code base quite frequently as well.

I know I can use @ to comment out all the code in the old node so it's ignored, but I was wondering if there was an equivalent approach that could simply ignore one of the nodes in an outline so I could swap between one and the other? I couldn't find an obvious answer in the documentation. Thanks, Karthik -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
