The following GIF demonstrates both selecting a set of insertion points as well as removing erroneously set points.On every new project I try to change one or two tools and/or techniques. Once you have all of the carets located where you would like them, stop pressing the ⌘⌥ keys and start typing.
If you insert a caret in an incorrect location, you can remove the caret by continuing to hold ⌘⌥ and clicking in the same area again.
You will be in insertion mode as long as the ⌘⌥ keys are held. To use the mouse to insert multiple carets, you must press and hold ⌘⌥ and click where you would like the carets to be entered. Once the carets are set, each will echo the key entries you type on your keyboard. While the keyboard shortcuts are bound to matching strings, you can manually insert a caret anywhere in the document with the cursor. This command can be invoked multiple times.īy using your cursor, you are able to free select specific insertion points for your multiple carets. Likewise, if you invoke the command "Insert next matching caret" (⌥⇧.) then a caret will be placed at the next instance of the word "name". For example, if the caret is at the start of the word "name" and you invoke "Insert carets at all matching" (⌥⇧ ) each instance of the word "name" in your current document will have a caret inserted at the start of the word. The following table provides the keyboard shortcuts available to enter specific modes of multi-caret editing: HotkeyĮach of these behaviors are anchored to the current position of the caret when you invoke the command. You're able to enable multi-caret mode via the keyboard in several ways. Multi-caret edit mode can be disabled via the ESC key. The primary caret is denoted by a red cursor, while the secondary carets present in a light-blue color. When in multi-caret mode, you can add additional carets to your document either via mouse clicks or via keyboard commands. Multi-caret editing allows you to add n number of insertion points at a single time.
