Moving column blocks

Top  Previous  Next

The IDE allows one to move text conventionally through standard Windows copy, cut and paste operations.  It also allows one to operate over column blocks of text.  This again employs standard Windows copy, cut and paste operations.  However in order to do this the column block must be designated.  This is done by identifying the column block of text with the mouse or the keyboard by holding alt and shift down then moving the mouse or the cursor with the arrow keys.

In turn copy, cut, and paste can be done with the Edit menu or with control c, x and v respectively as in normal windows.  Control insert also pastes.
