| <conbody> | |
| <p> The Snippets view can be extended based on additional objects that you | |
| define and include. To view or collapse the objects in a specific drawer, | |
| click the drawer name.</p> | |
| <p>The Snippets view has the following features: <ul> | |
| <li>Drag-and-drop to various source editing pages: You can drag items from | |
| the view into the active editor and the text will be dropped into the document | |
| at the cursor location </li> | |
| <li>Double-click support: You can double-click on an item and have it inserted | |
| at the current cursor position in the active editor </li> | |
| <li>User-defined drawers and items: You can define, edit, and remove items | |
| from view drawers as desired.</li> | |
| <li>Plug-in-defined drawers and items: Plug-in developers can contribute a | |
| default list of items to their own drawers.</li> | |
| <li>Variables in insertions: By default, items will be edited using a dialog | |
| and, when inserted, you will be prompted for values for each of the variables.</li> | |
| <li>Customization: You can select which drawers and items are shown in the | |
| Snippets view.</li> | |
| <li>Custom insertion: Plug-in developers can customize the behavior of items | |
| so that when they are dropped during a drag-and-drop action, both the text | |
| that is inserted and the insertion location are strictly defined.</li> | |
| </ul></p> | |
