I'm using Emmet in Sublime Text 3.
After executing a{display text}, you get
display text
What I'm trying to do is get the cursor to jump to after the close </a>, after I've pasted in the url. I'm trying to simulate Sublime's autocomplete $0 behavior, like
display text$0
I am looking through snippets.json, but I'm not getting it. The only "a" entry is in the "abbreviations" object, and contains only the open tag:
"a": "<a href=\"\">",
I've not edited any Emmet tags before, and I thought this might be a good first one to try.
Any ideas on how this might be possible?
There's a built-in Emmet setting that does this for all tags:
This is in C:\Users\jeffy\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\Emmet\Emmet.sublime-settings
// If set to `true`, Emmet will automatically insert final tabstop
// at the end of expanded abbreviation
"insert_final_tabstop": false
I duplicated it to C:\Users\jeffy\AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Packages\User\Emmet.sublime-settings
and changed it to true. It does exactly as I want. Well, it still goes to the display text, even if there already is display text. Then it goes to the end. But close enough!
Suppose I have a text:
This is my text!
How beautiful it is!
And I want to wrap each line within a p-tag, is there an easier way than to navigate to each line and add them manually and have them close semi-automatically?
I want them to look like this:
<p>This is my text!</p>
<p>How beautiful it is!</p>
while having to do as less as possible.
Select your lines
Code | Surround With...
For Windows/Linux: Ctrl + Alt + T
For MacOS: Cmd + Alt + T
Choose "Emmet"
Type p* -- this will surround each line with <p> tag
NOTE: Empty lines will be wrapped as well so it is better remove them in advance.
Similar/related case.
P.S.
In current versions of IDE the dedicated "Surround with Emmet" action is available which allows you to bring that popup window in one key stroke instead of having going trough via intermediate Surround with... popup menu first.
That action has no shortcut defined by default, but you can easily change that and assign any desired shortcut in Settings/Preferences | Keymap -- just look for Other | Surround with Emmet action (hint: use search box to speed up your search).
How can I replace \n in Sublime Text with real in-editor displayed new line so:
foo\nbar
becomes:
foo
bar
in the editor when I view the file in it.
Turn on Regex Search and Replace (icon most to the left in search and replace bar or shortcut Alt + R)
Find What: \\n
Replace with: \n
Use Find > Replace, or (Ctrl+H), to open the Find What/Replace With Window, and use Ctrl+Enter to indicate a new line in the Replace With inputbox.
Fool proof method (no RegEx and Ctrl+Enter didn't work for me as it was just jumping to next Find):
First, select an occurrence of \n and hit Ctrl+H (brings up the Replace... dialogue, also accessible through Find -> Replace... menu). This populates the Find what field.
Go to the end of any line of your file (press End if your keyboard has it) and select the end of line by holding down Shift and pressing → (right arrow) EXACTLY once. Then copy-paste this into the Replace with field.
(the animation is for finding true new lines; works the same for replacing them)
On Windows, Sublime text,
You press Ctrl + H to replace \n by a new line created by Ctrl + Enter.
Replace : \n
By : (press Ctrl + Enter)
In Sublime Text (with shortcuts on Mac):
Highlight the text that you want to search to apply Find & Replace
Go to Menu > Find > Replace... (Keyboard Shortcut: Alt + Command + F)
In the Find & Replace tool, enable Regular Expression by clicking on the button which looks like [.*] (Keyboard Shortcut: Alt + Command + R)
In Find What, type: \\n
Note: The additional \ escapes the Regular Expression syntax when searched.
In Replace With, type: \n
Click on the 'Replace All' button (Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + Enter)
Your literal text \n will then turn into an actual line break.
What I did is simple and straightforward.
Enter Space or \n or whatever you want to find to Find.
Then hit Find All at right bottom corner, this will select all results.
Then hit enter on your keyboard and it will break all selected into new lines.
Open Find and Replace Option ( Ctrl + Alt + F in Mac )
Type \n in find input box
Click on Find All button, This will select all the \n in the text with the cursor
Now press Enter, this will replace \n with the New Line
On Mac, Shift+CMD+F for search and replace. Search for \n and replace with Shift+Enter.
None of the above worked for me in Sublime Text 2 on Windows.
I did this:
click on an empty line;
drag to the following empty line (selecting the invisible character after the line);
press Ctrl+H for replace;
input desired replacement character/string or leave it empty;
click "Replace all";
By selecting before hitting Ctrl+H it uses that as the character to be replaced.
For Windows line endings:
(Turn on regex - Alt+R)
Find: \\r\\n
Replace: \r\n
The easiest way, you can copy the newline (copy empty 2 line in text editor) then paste on replace with.
On MAC:
Step 1: Alt + Cmd + F . At the bottom, a window appears
Step 2: Enable Regular Expression. Left side on the window, looks like .*
Step 3: Enter text to you want to find in the Find input field
Step 4: Enter replace text in the Replace input field
Step 5: Click on Replace All - Right bottom.
ctrl+h
sample :
type: </>
replace: \n
down below , find button - change to ALT+R
you see changed eFFect in color , better to use sample
nice feature
Every time I type an opening html tag (like <div>) then press the Enter key, the cursor automatically inserts an indention on the next line. However I don't want it to be indented since I still have to write the closing tag (actually I press the enter twice and write the closing tag in the third line so I can have an empty line in between). Now I have to press the back button to align the cursor with the opening tag.
I am aware of Sublime Text 2's autocomplete like when you type '<' and Ctrl + Space, a list
of available elements would appear. And when you select one item from the list, the editor would
provide you of both the opening and the closing tag. However, I'm not used to that kind of typing.
So is there a way to turn off this annoying feature of Sublime Text 2
You can disable auto-indentation by setting auto_indent to false.
In order to do this for the HTML syntax only, go to Preferences/Settings – More/Syntax Specific – User and insert the following contents:
{
"auto_indent": false
}
This will make the cursor to jump back at column 0 after hitting return.
To make it stay at the column of the opening tag, re-enable auto_indent and tweak the indentation settings in Packages/HTML/Miscellaneous.tmPreferences. If you aren’t into regular expressions, try to get rid of this file completely.
You can also just type the closing </div> tag and sublime text will automatically un-indent it for you.
As You Know ,Sublime text 2 is a wonderful text Editor .We can use the package control to install package .Zen coding is best one of these packages .But how can I change the key settings ?
Now I just know to spread out the Abbreviation .And how to wrap with Abbreviation ?
On a Mac it is CTRL Option Return that opens the Haiku bar at the bottom and you can enter the Koan code. Like: .box{Hello}*5 which will result in:
<div class="box">Hello</div>
<div class="box">Hello</div>
<div class="box">Hello</div>
<div class="box">Hello</div>
<div class="box">Hello</div>
If you want to change default zen coding key setting you should look into (in Windows) AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 2\Packages\ZenCoding folder. You have there a file called Default (Windows).sublime-keymap that consists of key mappings.
If you want to wrap with abbreviation you should select text to wrap and press Ctrl + Alt + Enter. It will open 'Enter Haiku' bar at the bottom. There you can input zen coding.
