ABAP Doc, auto close tags

Hi community,

is there a short cut or function that closes automatically open tags like <strong>, for example like STRG+1?

Thanks.

Hi Volker,

nice idea. Code Completion within ABAP Doc is definetly a feature we should support in AIE.

I will create a backlogitem for this.

Actually we are working on the sync between short texts and ABAP Doc and the generation of offline documentation based on ABAP Doc. When we have finished that we can improve the editing capabilities.

Regards,

Thomas.

PS: Maybe you can share some more experiences with ABAP Doc with the community.

Hi Volker,

a quick solution might be to create own code templates for tags you want to use in ABAP Doc.

E.g., you could create the following code template for the tag strong:

<strong>${cursor}${word_selection}</strong>

P.S.: By using the variable ${word_selection} in the tempalte, also existing text can be surrounded by tags:

Select some ABAP Doc
Press Ctrl+Space
Select the template

Hi Michael, thanks for the hint. I solved it with that generic template:

<${tag}>${word_selection}</${tag}>
