Texmaker — setting up user tags
Sep 9, 2018 · 1 min read
Texmaker provide some useful keyboard shortcut, and also customized feature for user.
- Tags are defined with the “User — User Tags” menu.
- Shortcut to insert tags are Shift+F1, Shift+F2, etc.
In section 4.4 of Texmaker user manual (link), there are 2 useful characters as input parameter: “%” and “@”.
- To begin and end a structure, start the tag with “%”:
The example given in the user manual uses “%environment ” to insert a structure \begin{environment} … \end{environment}. - To add a “.” in between braces “{}” like normal Texmaker do to other tags, put at mark “@”:
The example, \mathbf{@},from Clueless Fundatma (link) give a clear idea to use the function.
Whenever we insert the tag, cursor will jump to the dot location. If we select text and insert the tags, text will be located in replace of first dot.
