Twistpad hints and tips - Part 5

Posted: 2007-10-27 20:18

Block Selection

Block (rectangular) selections are available in Twistpad by pressing the [ALT] key on the keyboard and select the text with the mouse.

Alternatively you can make a block selection only using the keyboard. Press the [SHIFT] and the [ALT] key, and use the arrow keys to make the selection you wish.

Copying the block selection text to the clipboard, and pasting will make the pasted text be aware that the it must be pasted in block, aligning with the current text.

Formatting functions like uppercase, comment/uncomment and indent block will only be applied to the block selection and not to the line like a normal selection.

Please note that block selection is not available when the editor is in word wrap mode.
