Snippet Inserter

The snippet inserter can be accessed in the context of the Editor or the Shell. You can use the buttons on the toolbar or the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + i to open the snippet inserter. It will open wherever your cursor is in the script. Once the snippet inserter is opened, you can use the mouse or the keyboard to interact with it.

Using the mouse, you can simply click snippets to insert them into the Editor. If you click a snippet folder, it opens so that you can see the snippets inside it. As you browse folders, the text in the search box displays your current file path:

 

Clicking the back button for the search box returns you to your last location.

Keyboard Interaction

Deleting the text in the search box or using the keyboard shortcut Alt + ← returns you to your last location.
