Wish IDE : mark whole line with triple click

[rabbitBUSH]

In the IDE when one wants to copy a whole line it means you have to park at the beginning or end of the line and SHIFT left or right cursor to mark the whole line then CTRL+C it.

It would be nice if when one parks on a line, then triple click it that the whole line is selected / highlighted so that whole lines can be copy-n-pasted. Or, in fact, just delete it.

Small thing, but really useful in other editor / coding environments...

Thanks for considering this.....

You don't have to do any of that.
Just move the mouse to the line numbering until the pointer changes to the right and click it. Select the entire line.
To delete an entire line, just place the cursor anywhere on the line and press CTRL+Y.

It is recommendable the excellent documentation of @klaus: Documentation Booklets[^], especially for the part of shortcuts, B4X IDE.

I like to use Ctrl + Y to cut the current line and then paste it wherever needed or Ctrl + D to duplicate it and then move the new line with Alt + Up / Down.

I'm so used to doing it that I often try to do it in VS too!

(Maybe I dream but it seems to me that many years ago it was so also in VS; or VB6?)

VB6?

Yes, only VB6.
Not in VS nor Visual Code.

If you ever forget the short cuts (not applicable to @LucaMs) or want to memorize them, simply click on 'Edit' while in the IDE, you will see the main ones and their descriptions.
