Paste as comment

[kenmo]

This was already implemented as a right- click option in the IDE previous to it going open source.

You made me install 5.71 again to check

I think you're thinking of "Insert comments" (to existing text) which is not the same as "Paste as comment" (with comments pre-injected)

select all,Ctlr+B . doesn't work?

1. That's multiple keyboard or mouse steps compared to 1 hotkey press

2. Re-read the original request... if you paste THEN insert comments, your text is reformatted by the IDE, for example words inside strings may be wrongly case-corrected.

I was referring to the option on the pop-up menu when you right click in the editor window that says 'Paste as comment Ctrl+Shift+V'. When I have a little more time I'll check which version it initially showed up in. I only discovered the option within the last six months. Before then I had been using a custom IDE tool already posted in this thread to do the same thing for about four years.

While I got your attention, I want to thank you for your updates to the open source IDE code. It is much appreciated.

Yeah, unless I'm mixed up, that was new in 5.72 with the first bunch of open source submitted features. I just posted in this thread so it can be updated as [Implemented]

I have a long want-to-do list for the IDE but unfortunately very little time for it in the past 3 months
