Features Tour
Advanced Syntax Editor
Visual Studio .NET style Syntax Editor Control provides your users with a highly sophisticated text editor control that supports advanced features such as text block grouping, syntax colorization, line numbers, font type, pre-defined color schemes, book marks, break points, and many more advanced features.
Text Block Grouping
Visual Studio .NET style text block grouping allows you to easily organize a document of text into blocks of text that can be hidden with the click of a button. Hidden blocks of text can have a message stating what has been hidden for view. This allows you to minimize the clutter of vary large text documents.
Syntax Colorization
INI file based syntax colorization allows you to specify specific colorization rules for your text documents. For example, you can specify a different set of colors to be used for cpp, h, html, asp, etc files. Color rules can be applied to specific words or groups of words and phrases.
Bookmarks
Bookmarks allow you to place a "bookmark" at any position in your text document. You can later cycle through all of your bookmarks to easily return to positions of interest in your document.
Breakpoints
Visual Studio style breakpoints allow you to place a "breakpoint" at any position in your text document. This can be used for many different reasons, for example, if you have a code compiler you could use these breakpoints to indicate where code execution will "break" and wait for user interaction.
Intellisense Help
Using various configuration files such as a C++ configuration file you can add intellisense to the syntax editor. Using the configuration file you can specify which "keywords" will use the intellisense feature. To activate intellisense press Ctrl + Space anytime during editing.
Line Numbers
Line numbers allow you to easily see how many lines are in a text document as well as serve reference to the position you are at in the document. You can use these numbers to communicate points of interest in a document.
