1.11.10 Code folding

CodeBlocks supports so called code folding. With this feature you can fold e.g. functions within the CodeBlocks editor. A folding point is marked by minus symbol in the left margin of the editor view. In the margin the beginning and the end of a folding point is visible as vertical line. If you click the minus symbol with the left mouse button the code snippet will be folded or unfolded. Via the menu ’Edit’ /’Folding’ you can select the folding. In the editor you see folded code as continous horizontal line.

CodeBlocks provides the folding feature also for preprocessor directives. To enable this feature select ’Fold preprocessor commands’ via the menu ’Settings’ /’Editor’ in the folding entry.

Another possibility is to set user defined folding points. The start of folding point is entered as comment with a opening bracket and the end is market with a comment with a closing bracket.
