Block Submenu
Previous  Top  Next


Although NoteTab is not capable of drawing rectangular selections, it determines the block coordinates based on the selection's start and end coordinates. These commands are not designed to operate on word-wrapped lines. Currently, NoteTab treats tabs as a single character, so tab size is not taken into account this feature may be improved in a future version of the program. This submenu can be found under the Modify menu.
