'Multi Select' for CodeRush

Warning:

This plugin now ships natively with CodeRush 11.2 and higher. It remains here as an example only.

Introduction

This awesome plugin allows you to define and use multiple selections instead of the normal singular selection supported by Windows natively.

Additional Configuration

You will need to bind some shortcut keys to make this plugin useful.

We suggest binding...

• Ctrl + NumEnter = MultiSelectAdd
• Ctrl + NumDel = MultiSelectClear
• Ctrl + NumMinus = MultiSelectUndo
• Ctrl + NumPlud = MultiSelectRedo

Usage

Assuming that you've setup the keys as directed above..

• Defining Multiple Selections.

  • Highlight come text
  • Use Ctrl + NumEnter to add a MultiSelect selection.
  • Repeat the first 2 steps as needed.

• Use Ctrl + NumMinus to remove the most recently created selection.

Once you have defined your selections, you may either Cut or Copy those selections to the clipboard.

This clipboard content may be pasted anywhere in Windows where text could normally be entered.
