1.11.1 Tracking of Modifications

CodeBlocks provides a feature to track modifications within a source file and to show a bar in the margin for the changes. Modifications are marked with a yellow changebar and modifications that are already saved will use a green changebar (see Figure 1.11). You can navigate between your changes via the menu ’Search’ /’Goto next changed line’ or ’Search’ /’Goto previous changed line’ . The same functionality is also accessible via the shortcuts Ctrl-F3 and Ctrl-Shift-F3.

This feature can be enabled or disabled with the checkbox ’Use Changebar’ in the menu ’Settings’ /’Editor’ /’Margins and caret’ .
