The Quick Assist support helps you to rapidly access search and refactoring actions. If one or more actions are available in the current context, they are accessible via a yellow bulb help marker placed on the cursor line, in the editor line number stripe. Also, you can invoke the Quick Assist menu if you press Alt + 1 keys (Meta + Alt + 1 on Mac OS X) on your keyboard.
Two categories of actions are available in the Quick Assist menu:
- Actions available on a selection made inside an attribute that contains an XPath
expression:
-
Extract
template - Extracts the selected XSLT instructions sequence into a
new template.
-
Move to
another stylesheet - Allows you to move one or more XSLT global
components (templates, functions, or parameters) to another stylesheet.
- Extract local variable - Allows you to create a new local variable by extracting the selected XPath expression.
- Extract global variable - Allows you to create a new global variable by extracting the selected XPath expression.
- Extract template parameter - Allows you to create a new template parameter by extracting the selected XPath expression.
- Extract global parameter - Allows you to create a new global parameter by extracting the selected XPath expression.
