Re: Visual Studio vs. RDi.

@Brad
To open a member twice you don't really <open> it, instead when a member is
already open and selected you just click the specific icon on the right
upper corner, it looks like a small rectangle with a vertical line in the
middle.
It's not dangerous at all, as it's not a second, or third and on, copy:
it's the same file which can be seen in different tabs so you can see
different portions of it. The moment you make a change in one line it will
reflect in any tab with the same source file open. I find it extremely
useful when I write c specifications while coding variables' declaration at
the same time. This is a VSC feature. It works with any open file.

@Jon
Yes, I agree with you that VSC logic of managing files and projects it's
tricky, especially coming from other coding environments, but as far as I
know it's common among a certain class of IDEs , like NetBeans, rather
than a MS feature. Basically VSC is just an editor with lots of generic
functions, what makes the difference are the extensions you install.

Hope it helps.

Brad,

"the nesting lines for loops". On reflection, it's probably not Ruler,
but in settings search for "guides.indentation". It's a standard VS Code
Setting.

**free code, if you have Rpgle Indention Enable it helps keep the
structure of your code clear. And With Ctrl + [ and Ctrl + ] you can
move a line or selected lines left and right by a tab stop. If the
lines really bother you, you might searching VS Code settings for Ruler.
Thought I have not experimented with this.
