| 4.22 release of Eclipse. They are grouped into:</p> |

| <li><a href="#TextEditors">Text Editors</a></li> |
| <li><a href="#StylingThemes">Themes and Styling</a></li><!-- <li><a href="#Preferences">Preferences</a></li>--> |

| "../../org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/whatsNew/platform_isv_whatsnew.html">What's new</a> document in the plug-in |
| developer's guide.</p> |
| <p>We also recommend to read the <a href="../tips/platform_tips.html">Tips and Tricks</a>.</p><br /> |

| <td class="title"><a href="#external-browser-default">External browser used by default</a></td> |

| <td class="content"> |
| The new Launch Configuration View allows quick access to all your launch configurations without the need to |
| enter the launch dialogs. |
| <p><img src="images/launch-config-view2.png" alt="" width="600" /></p> |
| <p>You can launch (run, debug, profile, etc.) as well as terminate and/or relaunch running configurations |
| directly from the view.</p> |
| <p>The view also provides API which allows third party contributions to hook into the view and provide |
| "launchables".</p> |

| <td class="title"><a href="#defaultShowIn">Double click on Problem without File shows in default view</a></td> |
| <td class="content"> |
| Double click on Problems executes "Go to Resource". But there are cases where no File (column "Path") is |
| associated with the Problem. In those cases "Go to Resources" cannot be executed. Instead the default "Show |
| In" action is now executed. |
| <p><img src="images/Problems_Default.png" alt="" /></p>This default depends on the perspective. |

| <td class="title"><a href="#multi-selection">Multiple text selection</a></td> |
| <td class="content"> |
| Support for multiple selection has been added to Text Editors. Multi selections allow most edit operations |
| (text replacement or insertion, extend selection to next word or to next line, copy/paste...) to apply |
| simultaneously on all ranges. |
| <p><img src="images/multi-carets.png" alt="" /></p> |
| <p>Multiple strategies are available to enable multi-selections:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Turn a block selection into a multi-selection using the <i>To multi-selection</i> command,</li> |
| <li>Add a caret with <code>Alt+Click</code>,</li> |
| <li>Use the new <i>Select All</i> button on the Find/Replace dialog.</li> |
