Re: Ctrl/ behavior

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Doug

This is interesting - I've always used Ctrl-\ to undo comments. I don't 
think I've ever tried to add additional // to something I've already 
commented this way.

I have seen where, if I press Ctrl-/ on a block that contains // 
comments already, that the // is prepended to everything. But that's not 
what you are describing, right?

Personally, I'm not sure I'd try to add multiple comment // on a line - 
but maybe you want a visual cue more then just 1 pair. One of our 
developers likes to put several asterisks in old-style comments to mark 
what was changed, and make it easy to see.

There are a few settings for comments in Preferences - like do you 
insert or overwrite in a blank area. Maybe you could submit an Idea (new 
name for RFE) for the behavior you want.

Cheers
Vern
