In versions of Spyder after 4.1.5 all my ### {Whatever} separations in my code to make navigation easier have been removed from the Outline.  I liked this feature way more than the #%% {Whatever} method because the ### could be nested under functions and would offer more resolution to the outline.  Please add this feature back!

Hi,

The new convention for those kind of comments (called special comments) is this:

    # ----

We commit to maintain that convention from now on.


Cheers,
Carlos

Hi,

How does one now define a cell as it used to be done using #%%. It cant seem to work with Spyder 4.2.3

Thank you

Hello Tebogo,

`#%% Works for me` creates a code cell in Spyder 4.2.3 that is also shown in the outline.

Kind regards

Guess it was my machine. Worked fine after updating the machine. 

Thanks

Tebogo, You could share your code. Or try again.
