When I double-click on a keyword img on line 37:
ST highlights matching strings and I would like to select all highlighted instances. However pressing "Alt+F3" selects also other strings that weren't part of highlighted matches:
Is there a shortcut to select just highlighted matches from first screenshot?
Don't select the word first, just hit alt+f3.

Has anyone used LineThrough text on Microsoft Report Designer within the expression value?
Example:
=Switch(Fields!a.Value is Nothing, "text here".LineThrough, Not(Fields!a.Value is Nothing), CStr(Fields!a.Value))
I need the "text here" to be strikethrough if a.Value is nothing.
You need to use an expression to show the value you want and then Harry's answer to set the LineThrough.
You can simplify your SWITCH statement for the value like this..
=SWITCH(
Fields!a.Value Is Nothing, "Text Here",
True, Fields!a.Value)
or if the expression will not get any more complex than you have then use IIF
=IIF(Fields!a.Value Is Nothing, "Text Here", Fields!a.Value)
If you need only part of the textbox then the easiest way is to use placeholders. These act almost the same way as a textbox but you can have several placeholders in a single cell/textbox each with it's own properties.
To add a placeholder click the cell/textbox first to get focus then right-click before or after any existing text/placeholders. Select Insert placeholder and set the expression as you wish, you can also format the placeholders font/color/decoration etc.
As an example I've got a small dataset with country names. If the country contains the word "Island" then I show different text and change the text decoration on one of the place holders. In the design you can see there are 3 placeholders, some text then a field then some more text.
When I run this I get the following output.
I've set strike thru on the countrydesc field placeholder but you can do the same on a text placeholder. You still have to do it in two parts, and expression to set the text value and an expression in the placeholders font properties to set LineThrough
You can set the condition on the Font/ TextDecoration on the selected report Item. There is an option for LineThrough.
For Example
=iif(reportitems!Textbox7.Value = "Cartons","LineThrough","Default")
I want to be able to edit every line of my data simultaneously, for instance put quotations in front of every line. I am wondering what the key combination is that will enable me to do this.
Four steps:
Select all the text: CTRL A
Activate multi-cursors: CTRL (or CMD on Mac) SHIFT L
Press the Home key to move all cursors to the front of the line
Press the " quote key to insert the quote.
Using the Home End and CTRL + left | right arrow keys is handy when managing multiple cursors.
On a mac, you can highlight the lines you wish to edit and use CMDShiftL, or ctrlShiftL on Windows.
On Mac
cmd+A (Select all)
cmd+shift+L (Split selection into lines)
shift+2 (Surround selection with quotes)
esc (Escape)
On Windows
CTRL+A (Select all Data)
CTRL+Shift+L (Cursor will appear on each line)
Shift+ (right or left key) (move the cursor left or right)
Press ESC to remove the focus.
In case if you want to put cursor at every string as currently selected, use Find All shortcut:
Windows/Linux: Alt+F3
Mac: ⌃+⌘+G
All Multiple Selection shortcuts
I used this instruction https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/column_selection.html
still when I cut it only cuts 2 chars instead of the whole column of "00:00" why ?
You haven't selected a column. If you look carefully, you've only selected the 00 on the first line, and the rest of them are highlighted because they match the current selection. Make sure you are using the correct key/mouse sequence for your operating system from the documentation you linked to, then select the entire column, not just the first two characters.
While holding down Ctrl + Alt, press ↓ until you reach the end of the column. It will clone your cursor down the column. Then, use Shift + → or ← key to select text. Once selected do whatever you want with it.
$_POST['daily_limit'];
$whatever = $_POST['smoke'];
$_POST['soup'] + $_POST['cake'];
to
$this->input->post('daily_limit');
$whatever = $this->input->post('smoke');
$this->input->post('soup') + $this->input->post('cake');
In this example, is there any faster way to switch from $_POST[] to $this->input->post() without writing up a regular expression find and replace? I don't care if it takes multiple steps. Writing the regex for this (find: \$_POST\[(.*?)\] replace: \$this->input->post\($1\)) takes longer than changing them all manually (maybe I'm just not good at regex). Any ideas?
I'm making a brash assumption here, that you have only one variable within each pair of brackets and that the variables only contain alphanumeric characters. ['soup'+'bacon'] will break this trick, as will ['soup-with-bacon'].
With your cursor, highlight an instance of $_POST[ - nothing else.
Hit Alt+F3 if you're on Windows/Linux (Cmd+ShiftG in Mac?)
Try to scroll through and see if everything that's selected is everything you want to replace.
Type $this->input->post( - nothing else.
Press → to move all cursors to the right of the first quote.
Press Ctrl+→ (this is the only remotely wtfh4xxy part of the process, and only if you're not used to navigating by word with the cursor) to navigate over the variable.
Press → twice to move all cursors to the right of the next quote.
Replace the ]with a ).
#nnnn I did a variation of your version to remove the wtfh4xxy part.
select:$_POST
altf3
type: $this->input->post(
ctrlshiftm
ctrlx
ctrlshiftm
ctrlv
type: )
Sublime text ftw!
I have a text file with 100's of news articles.
I need to Select All > Take cursor to the beginning of each line and have the 'multiple cursors' open so I can add some data.
Since the new articles do not have the same begging character, I can not use CTRL+F3.
Is there a way to [CTRL] + [A] (Select All) then > Go to the begging of each line with 'multiple cursors' open ?
You should select all with ctrl+A.
Then split the selection into one selection per line with ctrl+shift+L.
Then press the left arrow key.
Now you should be able to type data at the beginning of each line.
Let me add some answer, ( work in sublime 2 / sublime 3 )
i try with #Riccardo Marotti step
, but when the article have tab it will lead to the very far first line
So I make some fix , To make cursor in every front line or every end of line :
ctrl+A // select all
ctrl+Shift+L // Add cursor to all line
Shift+Home // put cursor to first word in the line
to get the end of line no need to do the first step again if you are in the first line, just do this one :
Shift+End // put cursor to end of line, then
click "right arrow" to remove the drag
or you can try this one (really an experimental works)
Just use you center of mouse, click it (the center roll of your
mouse), then drag, this will lead to add more cursor
, then just press left/right
or try to seek more here :
sublime-text-multiple-cursor-shortcut
override-shortcut-for-multiple-cursors
hope this help
I think ctrl+alt+down (or up) when your cursor is at the beginning of a line might be what you're looking for. It will put the cursor on multiple lines, and what you type will be duplicated on each.
