Netbeans IDE : How do I fold large chunks of Javascript code in Netbeans?

Question

I have taken the leap from my comfortable dreamweaver IDE to Netbeans and am missing my code folding options :(

I see with Netbeans you can fold nor

Answer 1

The shortcut key for folding all of the data in any file type is "Ctrl + Shift + - (minus sign)".
To expand fully that file, you need to do the opposite, which is "Ctrl + Shift + + (plus sign)".

To see & edit the whole Keyboard Shortcuts of NetBeans IDE, please go to the "Tools Menu > Options > Keymap Tab".

Hope it helps.

Update for Folding Code Structures other than the Functions itself:-
Follow these steps:-

• Go to this section "Tools Menu > Options > Editor Tab > General Sub-Tab".
• You will find 2 sections in there - "Code Folding" & "Camel Case Behavior".
• In the section of "Code Folding", there are two sub-sections - "Use Code Folding" & "Collapse by Default".
• Check the checkbox for the sub-section "Use Code Folding", to activate the other options of the other sub-section.
• In the other sub-section "Collapse by Default", you will find 6 options. Among them, your required option is the "Tags and Other Code Blocks". Check the checkbox of this option, to activate code folding for all code structures (like "if" & "for" logic, ...), and then restart the application (otherwise it MAY NOT work).
