Re: blockShiftLeft and blockShiftRight not working -- WDSCI-L

Another thing, some WDSC parsers now have reformatting capabilities, which may kick in after the shift and restore the text to what it was before (which is most probably the case if you see the changes being incremented)!?

Also, just as a reminder, it's *rectangular* selections (Alt+R) that are shiftable...

Several WDSC parsers (such as RPG) have a column-sensitive editing option (settable from the Preferences), which would prevents changes from going beyond a field's limits. Try a C/C++ file, opened with the Remote Systems LPEX Editor, see if the block shifts work in there.
