Bracket Matching |
A handy feature of the Understand editor is syntax bracket matching. Use this feature to find the matching ending bracket of syntactically used braces, parenthesis and brackets. Symbols matched are (,),{,},[,]. Matching isn’t done inside comments.
Pressing Ctrl+m jumps the editor to the matching end or beginning brace. Ctrl+m isn’t active unless over a symbol that it can match. Another Ctrl+m takes you back where you started.
Pressing Ctrl+Shift+M selects all the text from the bracket to its matching bracket.
Another variant of bracket matching is that when enabled each time you type one of the bracketing symbols the editor quickly highlights the entire region being bracketed. This too is handy for quickly and efficiently entering syntactically correct code that does what you hope it does.
