Hotkey's in Netlogo

[Wannes...@hotmail.be]

Hello all,

I recently stumbled upon some new hotkeys I could use in Netlogo but can't find any documentation showing a complete list of what options are available and what exactly they do. A few examples:
Ctrl + D : deletes current line
Ctrl + J : deletes the newline at the end of current line, thus joining this line and next line

Ctrl + K : highlight the selected text and all identical text throughout the code

If anyone has a complete list, please let me know.

Best,

Wannes

Wannes and I both want to know:  HOW TO YOU STOP "CTRL+K"?  Seems like once you use it to "highlight all instances of the current selection" there's no way to turn off the highlight.  I found that you can highlight "end of line" and that's less annoying. But what cancels "highlight" mode?

[Wannes...@hotmail.be]

Hello all,

I found a way to cancel the "highlight" mode although I dont' know exactly why. Putting your cursor at the very end of the code and clicking "ctrl+k" removes all the highlighting. Subsequently putting the cursor anywhere else in the code (without selecting anything) brings the last highlighting back.

Best,

Wannes

Great detective work!

To clarify (i hope) and expand:

CTRL+K  or CTRL+SHIFT+K

USUAL BEHAVIORS

(some text has been selected) -- all instances of the selected text are highlighted. the cursor jumps to the *next* or (with SHIFT) *previous* instance of the text, and that text is selected. If there is no next or previous instance, the computer makes a warning sound.

(highlights are ON)  -- the cursor moves to the *next*  or (with SHIFT) *previous* instance of the highlighted text, and the text is selected. If there is no next or previous instance, the cursor stays where it is, and the computer makes a warning sound.

(anywhere in the code, nothing selected, CTRL+K has never been used to turn on highlights) -- computer makes a warning sound.

(anywhere in the code (except see above), nothing selected, CTRL+K has previously been used) -- the previously highlighted text is highlighted again, the next or (with SHIFT) previous instance is selected.

SPECIAL BEHAVIORS:

(at the very *end* of the code, nothing selected) -- CTRL+K - The highlights are removed, and the computer makes a warning sound.

(at the very *end* of the code, nothing selected) -- CTRL+SHIFT+K - The highlights are applied, and the last instance is selected.

(at the very *beginning* of the code, nothing selected) -- CTRL+SHIFT-K - The highlights are removed, and the computer makes a warning sound.

(at the very *beginning* of the code, nothing selected) -- CTRL+K - The highlights are reapplied, and the first instance is selected.

(after loading another, entirely different model) -- CTRL+K -- the matching text in this model is highlighted, etc. (!)
