How do you get CodeTools to place space around assignment operator? lazarus / 9-Editor ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vfclists · 2014-08-01 00:26 Normally when you chose a property for assignment in CodeTools there is no identifier between the identfiier and the assignment operator. eg. Component.Name:=; How do you set CodeTools to do this instead: Component.Name := ; ---------------------------------------------------------------------- typo · 2014-08-01 00:42 See "Space" under Code Tools on Tools > Options dialog box. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vfclists · 2014-08-01 08:19 Quote from: typo on August 01, 2014, 02:42:05 amSee "Space" under Code Tools on Tools > Options dialog box. I have tried it and it doesn't work. Is that when you tick the colon in the 'Insert space before' panel? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Blaazen · 2014-08-01 08:32 Insert space before and after symbol works perfectly here for Code: [Select]i := 0; ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vfclists · 2014-08-01 09:01 Quote from: Blaazen on August 01, 2014, 10:32:27 amInsert space before and after symbol works perfectly here for Code: [Select]i := 0; I have got it now. I thought symbol referred to the actual character and was using the colon instead.
