Christian Lenz commented on NETBEANS-436: ----------------------------------------- So this works for scss/css and html, because it will wrap around with CSS: /*whatever*/ and HTML: <!--<div>-->. It would be better to add spaces after /* and before */ and between <!-- <div> -->. > Please change behaviour of commenting lines > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: NETBEANS-436 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-436 > Project: NetBeans > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: editor - Formatting & Indentation, editor - Other > Affects Versions: Next > Reporter: Christian Lenz > Priority: Major > > Atm, if you hit a shortcut to comment a like, it will end up this: > {code} > if(whatever) { > if(again) { > console.log(42); > // System.out.println(42); > } > } > {code} > I know it is not the same lang but it doesn't matter. As you can see, it will > comment the line, but it will start the comments still on column 1 and not > where the code is. This is a pain in the ass, because if you reformat the > code, it looks like this: > {code} > if(whatever) { > if(again) { > console.log(42); > // System.out.println(42); > } > } > {code} > and if you uncomment the line, it looks like this: > {code} > if(whatever) { > if(again) { > console.log(42); > System.out.println(42); > } > } > {code} > and you have to reformat it again or move it into the right direction. I know > that it was easy to add the comments in column 1 but no editor or IDE does > this. In VS Code and the JetBrains family it looks like this: > {code} > if(whatever) { > if(again) { > console.log(42); > // System.out.println(42); > } > } > {code} > Which is more right, it only adds "// " in front of the code and removes it > again. So in my opinion this is way better and even correct. It keeps the > indentation too so no need to worry after you reformat the code. > Cheers > Chris -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
