Folding in the JavaScript Editor

Folding, which refers to collapsing/expanding portions of code in the JavaScript Editor, can be accomplished manually by selecting the + / - icon in the left margin of the JS Editor or from the Editor's Context menu (which offers more ways to collapse/expand folds faster than you can do manually). Use the following steps to collapse/expand a fold from the Context menu. (The procedures to perform the other folding actions are similar.) Navigate to the page that has the desired JavaScript Editor, and select the first line of the desired fold. Note: You need to select the first line in the desired fold. which lines are distinguished by a +/- icon in the grey margin of the JS Editor (previous graphic). If you do not select one of these lines, the Editor does not collapse/expand the fold. You can see how many lines of code are in a fold by moving the pointer into the grey margin below a +/- icon, which action reveals a bracket that extends from the icon down to the last line of the fold.

Using the Auto-Completion Popup in the JavaScript Editor

The Auto-Completion popup simplifies channel coding, eliminating the need to go back and forth between the JavaScript Editor and the User API or even the Message Template list on the same page as the Editor by putting all coding variables (e.g., code templates, classes, functions, variables) in one popup within the Editor itself. Accompanying the Auto-Completion popup is a descriptor window that displays, depending on the selected item, its name and various traits. To display the Auto-Completion popup, select on the beginning/end of a line in the JavaScript Editor, then hold down the ctrl / control button, and select the space bar. On the list, double-click the desired item to add it to the code in the Editor. Note: When adding classes in the JavaScript Editor, double-click the desired class on the Auto-Completion popup, and type a period after the class to reveal a list of its methods (that perform specific actions), then double-click the desired method to add it to the Editor.
