How to fold / collapse selected code in Eclipse & ABAP Development Tools

[Vlad_Ghitulescu]

Hello!

How do you fold / collapse a selected part of your code in the editor window in Eclipse & ABAP Development Tools?

I don't want to fold only the part specific to a statement (IF, WHILE etc.) that's already marked by a + sign in a circle but a portion of the code that I select (with the mouse or the cursor and the arrow keys).

Any idea?

Thanks!

Regards,
Vlad

Hi Vlad,

I'm not aware of such a plugin. In ADT we do not offer that kind of free style code folding.

Hi, Thomas!

Could you put it on your feature request-list please?

I'm sure it would be useful not only for me: Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, Xcode, BBEdit and other code editor have this since ages.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Vlad

Hi Vlad,

yes, we can do that. But most likely this feature will not be implemented within the next release.
