It's pretty easy when you are used to it - this may help: Using the Article Editor (without losing your hair in handfuls)[^]. It has a section on code blocks.

Thank you for the article however its suggestion as to code block formatting is precisely what I have attempted and doing so results in the entire article being so formatted not only the highlighted portion. Kind Regards - Cheerio

|
|
Yes that is my article You may go at it as you please Thank You I would be happy to learn how to properly format if such instruction is not too much trouble Thank You again - Cheerio

I have gone in and fixed it.
Basically you want to hit the Source button in the top-right of the editor, and change this
struct cpreamble<br />
{<br />
std::string m_func;<br />
cpreamble(const char* func) : m_func(func) { std::cout << fg_yellow << func << fg_white << " entry" << std::endl; }<br />
~cpreamble() { std::cout << fg_cyan << m_func << fg_white << " exit" << std::endl; }<br />
};<br />
#define PREAMBLE cpreamble _cpreamble(__func__);<br />
So one can utilize it as below.<br />
void foobar()<br />
{<br />
PREAMBLE // first line in function<br />
// full body of function ...<br />
}<br />
To this:
<pre lang="C++">struct cpreamble
{
std::string m_func;
cpreamble(const char* func) : m_func(func) { std::cout << fg_yellow << func << fg_white << " entry" << std::endl; }
~cpreamble() { std::cout << fg_cyan << m_func << fg_white << " exit" << std::endl; }
};
#define PREAMBLE cpreamble _cpreamble(__func__);
So one can utilize it as below.
void foobar()
{
PREAMBLE // first line in function
// full body of function ...
}</pre>
Or, you want to leave that Source button alone, paste in your code exactly like this:
struct cpreamble
{
std::string m_func;
cpreamble(const char* func) : m_func(func) { std::cout << fg_yellow << func << fg_white << " entry" << std::endl; }
~cpreamble() { std::cout << fg_cyan << m_func << fg_white << " exit" << std::endl; }
};
#define PREAMBLE cpreamble _cpreamble(__func__);
So one can utilize it as below.
void foobar()
{
PREAMBLE // first line in function
// full body of function ...
}
Then select it all and go to the Formatted dropdown, and select "Formatted"

Sean, can you let me know what he did, if possible - I'd like to update my guide to prevent it happening again?

I think he was trying to find a button to format the code, but the option was actually in a drop down menu.

Greetings and Kind Regards. Several times per day while working in Visual Studio (VS) the keyboard stops responding and the keyboard cursor is nowhere to be seen so I must reach for the mouse and click within the editor to bring the cursor back. This has been going on over many previous VS versions. It may be related to the speed of typing though am not completely certain. I find it difficult to believe it only occurs on my system and does not occur to the developers of VS as well and so always wonder why they do not repair it as it must be as much of a nuisance to them as to myself. May I please ask if this occurs to anyone of you? Also I am fascinated in wondering just how many developers work on VS. If any of you know I would appreciate being informed. Thank You Kindly. Finally I am glad I am not one of the VS developers as it seems amazingly complex. Incidentally I just discovered the nice feature whereby VS presents my own macro arguments when writing same. A nice touch. - Cheerio
PS The disappearing keyboard cursor only occurs in VS and no other editor I utilize.

Does it only happen with VS, or does it also happen with others editors (e.g., Word, Notepad)? If not, I would lean toward a video or keyboard driver, but I'd just be guessing.

It may be one of your installed extensions or the analysers, try switching them off and see if it still happens. I get something similar in VS code where it freezes for a few seconds.

You can hate him all you want, I like the guy for the most part.
He has done more good for mankind than not, and is continuing to do great things for space travel and exploration, among other things.

True, but he's also one of the biggest corporate welfare queens, so it's a wash for me.

I'm not saying he is an angel, but hell, I wish I was getting multi-billion dollar contracts from the Government.

At the expense of what? If this whole battery thing is factual, no amount of "good" can undo such unethical wrongs.

Don't hate the man; don't "like" his methods.
If he's willing to screw you over with a software update so you buy more of his cars, you can take your chances on his "space ship".

Shades of Apple some years back.

I don't buy anything Apple either. They've taken Planned Obsolescence to the extreme with their anti-right to repair stance.

On the other hand, I feel rather fortunate that Apple keep giving Louis Rossman enough material to be funny.

On a more serious note, It cannot come as a surprise that they have to slash the battery current as the batteries get older. Internal resistance goes up and they will catch fire otherwise.
And 620 kg of batteries per car (Model S 100D) that cannot be recycled economically. Approx. 5% is recycled today, the rest is going into landfills or "storage".
Planned obsolescence at its best.

I'm guessing they argued that in court, considering the lawsuit. Apparently the powers that be didn't buy it?
