Multi-line editing

[jamie]

Disappointed that I can't edit multiple lines at once - it's such a useful feature and I sometimes end up copying text into a different editor, making the changes, then pasting back.

Example:

Code: Select all

blah blah

blah blah

blah blah

If I could indicate that all three lines needed editing, I could put the cursor at the start of just one of the lines and type <p> and get:

Code: Select all

<p>blah blah

<p>blah blah

<p>blah blah

Hello Jamie,

Starting from 18.0, the stand-alone oXygen has a rectangular selection feature, and it seems to me that it can prove to be helpful to you.

You can find some information at the following links:

- https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/ ... Cselection

If you are using a stand-alone oXygen, please let us know if this is sufficient for you. If it's not sufficient, please explain to us your use case in more details.

All the best wishes,
