Is there a tool that would allow the user to highlight a section of code manually for on screen analysis? When you make a syntax error, it hightlights the error, I'm talking like if you have a few code blocks/lines and you want to fill the back of the block so that line sticks out for reference and then obviously be able to toggle it off.
Right now I print out the code blocks and manually highlight the lines in question which helps me solve the variable issues I'm looking at. I searched the help file "highlight" and it just returned the automatic highlighting for syntax.
I wasn't sure if there was a plugin that someone knows about since people develop modules like I2C and such.
Thanks
You know when you print out your code on 8 1/2 X 11 sheets of paper and you troubleshooting code, in my case I use a liquid highlighter to focus on troubled variables or sections of code that need "attention" out of the hundreds of lines of other code.
Some programs have the ability to use the mouse to highlight:
a line of code a block of code
I'm wondering if there is a plugin that when I select with my mouse that I could use an "electronic liquid" highlighter to maintain focus on the text that I'm interested in troubleshooting on the screen itself, to prevent me from having to print it out every time and waste paper.
Right now when you "select" or use the mouse to grab text blocks on the .c file, it highlights blue, but when you click somewhere else, that highlight goes away, I'd like it to remain (in pale yellow or some other use selected option) so that as I scroll up and down the page, it would be like a quick reference to that section of code I'm interested in troubleshooting.
Does that help?
