Moving to contents of function

Did I just miss something or is it still not possible to quickly move to the contents of a function in the source of an object (table, codeunit etc.). It’s really a pain to move between the contents of (sub)functions in e.g. DimMgt not having some kind of search option. Seem to recall having read somewhere that this should have been fixed, but if so then how?

Hi Allan, As far as I know there is nothing for it yet. What can you do is position yourself in the code on a function name and type the first letter or the function that you are looking for. That usually works but the problem is that if there is code that starts with the same letter you have to stop and reposition yourself on a function name to continue. Maybe in 3.70?? Cristi

If we can believe the overview of the changes in 3.70, it will now be possible to search on functions. However, I always wonder why they can’t apply the code use in the developper toolkit to the Development environment. In the toolkit, you have syntax coloring, you can select functions, …

I can confirm that in 3.70 you can search for function names. e.g in C12 if you search for PostVend() you go straight to the function. Django

Can someone confirm that : - you can set breakpoints directly in code - and that those breakpoints are used in 370. If yes, how ? couldn’t get it to work.

Yes you can set breakpoints in code. Press F9. You’ll see a red circle on the left hand side of the line - like you’d see in Delphi or VB. You might have to scroll the screen to the left to see that column. Save your object and compile. Set the debugger as active. Run the object - as soon as you hit the code the debugger will open up.

HINT: Go to the Global Variable Menu / Function, add the letter Q to the name of the function, then (unless you use a lot og Qs in your functions will go straight to the one you want.

PS: This does not work to well in Tables because of Quantities, so in tables I use teh letter Z
