[QUOTE] and [CODE]

Question
-
The formatting commands [quote], [/quote],[code], and [/code] are supported by most forums concerned with software, but not here. The "Insert Code Block" function here is pretty much useless. Please consider adding support for quotes and code.

We don't have plans to change to markup. Thanks for the suggestion though, this has been something we have looked at in the past but I don't think we are very close to making this change.

Hello Again,
If you don't plan on changing that, how about fixing the "Insert Code Block." The code block does not clearly delineate the code. And when I "Edit" to fix an error it adds a host of blank lines. If I insert a new line in the code block, it creates new code blocks and really messes up.

edit: add a code blockvoid CMFC_App_SDI_V02View::OnDrawRed() { // TODO: Add your command handler code here int columns; int rows; int index = 0; int intensity = 0;
// insert this line
// TODO: Add your command handler code here for( rows = 0; rows < BMAP_WIDTH; rows ++ ) { for( columns = 0; columns < BMAP_WIDTH; columns ++ ) { m_image_array[ index ] = 0; m_image_array[ index + 1 ] = 0; m_image_array[ index + 2 ] = intensity; index += 3; } intensity += 4; if( intensity >= 0xFF ) intensity = 0; } InvalidateRect( NULL, FALSE ); }Now go back and insert one line with copy paste then save
Look at all the blank lines. They were not there before the edit.

Hello Again,
I am back and complaing again about lack of ability to mark quotes and code. Add in functions such as [code], and [/code], and the same for quotes. The lack of this significantly detracts for forum use.
I suggest that you (You understood meaning the group) a poll in a couple of forums where people will see it and discover what they think. I suspect that most people do not cruise this section very often.
