Re: Setting preference for Generate free-form ... in

In LPEX New Procedure wizard, the "Generate free-form D-spec and P-spec
code" and "Generate free-form C-spec" checkboxes default to not checked.

Where might I find a preference setting to change that? Or do I need to
retrain myself to check those boxes each time I create a new procedure?

RFE 57040 is about priming the name field of the new D-Spec wizard with
the selected text.

Vicki is proposing creating a prototype from the selected procedure.

Both great ideas. I am thinking that the latter would be more in demand
day to day, but your votes will determine that.

I never thought I'd use the automated wizard. But on recent project I was
refactoring code and the wizard was helpful. I too think it would be
helpful to set the defaults.

But what I would really like to see is a step-up. I recently worked on a
c# project in visual studio. Visual Studio does 2 things that would be
immensely helpful.
1) You can highlight code and extract a method/procedure. It's super
smart and even determines the parameters and return variable. I'd be
happy with the code wrapped in a stub.
Advantage- you get to do the brain dump of getting the code
on the screen and then come back and clean it up.
2) Another request would to have the ability to type a subprocedure
statement. Right click and have the option to generate a stub.
Advantage - you know you need a procedure - you know what it
needs to do but you want to iron out the details later and keep going with
your current thought process.

Thanks.

new procedure wizard (RDi 9.1.1)

New to 9.1.1 (I may be asking a few other questions until I get
acclimated).

In LPEX New Procedure wizard, the "Generate free-form D-spec and P-spec
code" and "Generate free-form C-spec" checkboxes default to not checked.

Where might I find a preference setting to change that? Or do I need to
retrain myself to check those boxes each time I create a new procedure?
