Does anyone know how to use column mode for editing source code within uVision3 IDE??? I am used to using Jens where I could insert text in a column format defined by the start and stop of the drag of my cursor. I could then right click and insert defined text on all lines simultaneously starting where my cursor orignated to the end of the highlighted segment area in a column format. Can anyone help with this??? I know how to use the Alt key and mouse to highlight text in a column format, but I can find a way to enter text on multiple lines in a column format. This is very annoying.
Yes Andrew, I do understand that. I was just giving a sense of where I am coming from. Anyhow, I am aware of the alt+drag feature that allows you to highlight and delete in column format of which I am very thankful for mind you. I do appreciate you letting me know though Andrew.
Not just delete - you can also copy, cut, and paste the "columnar" block...
ahh yes, I am also aware of those features that exist within column mode. These are all very helpful features. That's one of the reasons I felt there must also be a mode or option for adding text in a column format, but to my surprise there is not. Oh well, I will just edit the files with which I would like to use column mode to get things done more efficiently within Jens' and update the file and go back to uVision.
