Customise automatic selection - cpmcgrath/codealignment GitHub Wiki

This page was written for Code Alignment 6. Some of the names have changed since v5 and some of the features aren’t available in v5.

The automatic selection logic of Code alignment can be customised to suit the type of files you work with and even your coding preference.

From the Align by String screen press the Options button. On the left hand side select Automatic Selection.

End of scope line values (separate with space)

Here you can add values which when found on a line alone tells the Automatic Selection that it is the start or end of a block. For more details on this logic see _______

End of scope line ends (separate with space)

Very similar to above, but instead of having to be on the line alone, a line only has to end in it to consider it the start or end of a block. This is useful for developers who don’t put their braces on a new line – Simply add { here.

XML Types

Lists the files which the XML automatic selection logic should be used in.
