  Selection
   
The Selection menu contains menu items that work on the selection. Multiple elements, events and commands can be selected at once by using the Shift key to extend the selection or by dragging over a range.

  • Breakpoint: Sets a breakpoint at the selected Event or Command that will force the debugger to stop at that line when it is executed. Breakpoints are marked with a small stop sign icon.
  • No Breakpoint: Clears the selected breakpoint.
  • Comment: Disables the selected event or command so that it is ignored when testing, checking or at runtime. Commented objects are marked by an icon with a small horizontal line.
  • No Comment: Clears the selected comment.
  • Lock: Locked elements ignore all mouse events in the Layout window - so their position can only be changed in the Outline window. Locked elements are marked with a Lock icon.
  • Unlock: Unlocks the selected element.
  • Mask: When mask is selected, a shown element is hidden in the layout window. This is in the editor only. To remove the mask, select Unmask from the Selection menu.
  • Unmask: When unmask is selected, a hidden element is shown in the layout window. This is in the editor only. To remove the unmask, select mask form the Selection menu.
  • Put First: Moves the selected element, event or command to the first in its container's outline.
  • Put Before: Moves the selected element, event or command up one in its container's outline.
  • Put After: Moves the selected element, event or command down one in its container's outline.
  • Put Last: Moves the selected element, event or command to the last in its container's outline.
