2012b Editor missing features "Change Case"?

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi.
Am I the only one that's missing the possibility to change case of text in the 2012b MatLab editor? Or is it still there and I just don't find it? No infos in the help and doc...
In earlier versions there has been the Text Menu with functions "Change to Upper Case" and "Change to Lower Case".
Greets, Heiko

Hi,
it's there, or better it needs to be enabled again. Go to the ML preferences => Keyboard => Shortcuts. There you will find "change to lower case" and "change to upper case". Give/assign both a shortcut and it works again.
Seems like by default no shortcut is assigned to it.

Thank you very much. This actually works, although I had to unassign other shortcuts to get the old ones back.

Indeed this seems to be reomoved as also the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl U and Ctrl Shift U are not working. I will see if I can find out more.
Can you describe me the use case where you use(d) this feature? I personally can't think of a use.

Thanks for the fast response!
When writing help comments in my functions I used this for instance to repeat the function name at the beginning:
function out = xyz(in)
% XYZ function for doing stuff
Also, it helped me to see dependencies between functions if I repeated function names in upper case letetrs in m-files with multiple functions.
I could work without these functions just fine; I was just wondering...

OK. I contacted Development. At the minimum, this is an enhancement request now.

This is kind of a kludgy workaround but it should work pretty easily for you:
hEditor = matlab.desktop.editor.getActive; %get active editor
hEditor.insertTextAtPositionInLine(upper(hEditor.SelectedText),...
hEditor.Selection(1),hEditor.Selection(2)); %insert upper version of selected text.
Then hit delete to remove the current version. You could make a shortcut for each of these (upper and lower) so that it's a one button click on the shortcuts tab or Quick Access Toolbar, and then one hit of the delete button.

Thank you for your answer. I will give it a try, and maybe it is possible to delete the selected text as well. Right now I prefer the shortcut solution by Friedrich.

Friedrich's answers is certainly the best!
The editor API doesn't allow for removing text easily.

Use a 3rd party editor such as notepad++ which already has Matlab m-file syntax highlighting as default. Also has advantage you can continue to browse m files while Matlab scripts are running, unlike the built-in editor. Don't save files though while they are in use or likely to be used by active script - that just results in Matlab crashes/hangs!
