Hi all,
Please help me...I'm working on an SDK programming guide, and I have
some sample code lines that are just too long. I am told I need to
indicate that the lines are breaking with some kind of an carriage
return arrow icon, and then indent the following line.
Does anyone have any
Neil,
Are the code lines individually in table cells, or are all of the lines
really in a single table cell? Must be a pain if it's only one large
cell...
I presume each line is a separate paragraph. If not I have no idea how
to automate this at all.
If these are not numbered, you could
I put each line of code into a single cell -- if you're doing that,
just set an indent for the subsequent lines. I've never put anything
at the end of the line and never had anyone fail to understand that a
hanging first line and indented following lines indicated that the
line wrapped.
Manually
Oops - too hasty a reply.
Autonumbering at the end of the paragraph is truly at the end - at the
right side of the last line. So my suggestion won't cut it unless you
create two different formats, one for the first line only w/
autonumbering, and another for subsequent lines without that is

Put the code in a cell or leave it in the body, makes no difference to
the user.
Code in the body of the text is easier to maintain

Thanks for the replies everyone! All I was asking about was lines that
wrapped...sounds like most

Code in the body of the text is easier to maintain in docs.
Indent the line continuation.
Do not put any character at the end of a broken line.
Coders know that lines

Of course. This is a new low, though... I mean, you expect programmers
to be incapable of putting themselves in their users' shoes, but this
one can't even put himself in his OWN shoes.
