Script Editor

When you add a script, an icon appears in the Editor column, allowing you to open the script in the script editor. Here are some key features:

1. Helpers: Save time by using built-in code snippets. Click the appropriate snippet, and it will automatically add code to the editor field.

2. Keyboard shortcuts:

   • Ctrl + F: Find syntax in your code (text will be highlighted in yellow).

   • Ctrl + G: After finding text via Ctrl + F, use Ctrl + G to select the next syntax in the script.

   • Shift + Ctrl + G: Select the previous syntax.

   • Shift + Ctrl + F: Replace syntax in a script with another one (choose one by one if needed).

   • Shift + Ctrl + R: Replace all syntaxes in a script at once.

   • Ctrl + Space: Auto-detect code and suggest commands. Write the first letter of a command, then select the correct one from the list.
