::Collect-Content : This is the first step. Collect the content of your presentation in a text file. Order the content of the steps in the desired sequence in the text file. Three or more lines separate the steps. The steps must be separated by three consecutive blank lines or more. Make sure the content of any step does not have three or more consecutive blank lines lest the step will be split into two steps when loaded by CodeDemo. //Load-Content : Load the content file in CodeDemo. Open the file in CodeDemo using the 'Open File' buttom near the top left corner. You can reload the file by clicking on 'Refresh' button. You can also press F5 to reload the file if you make any changes to it. --Paste-Content = CodeDemo will assign unique ids to your steps. You will type the id of the step you want to execute in your favourite IDE followed by a 'Tab' key. The content of the step will be pasted at the insertion point in your IDE. The ids are case-insensitive. Try it right now. Open your favourite IDE and type A01 (or a01) followed by the TAB key. --CustomKeys You can specify custom ids for your snippets in addition to the ones automatically generated by CodeDemo. This is how it works : The first word (upto 15 characters) of the first line in your snippet is used as the custom id. If the first word contains non-alphanumeric characters, CodeDemo will use the first 15 alpha-numeric characters of the first word of your snippet. For example, if the first line starts with //Test1 - This is the first test. The custom id will be Test1. There are many examples of specifying custom ids in Quickstart.txt file. This file is automatically loaded the first time you run CodeDemo. ::ZoomIt integration Double-Tap on CTRL Key to launch ZoomIt "Zoom" Double-Tap on SHIFT Key to launch ZoomIt "LiveZoom" Double-Tap on ALT Key to launch ZoomIt "Draw" Works with any IDE where you can paste using CTRL+V CodeDemo works with practically all Integrated Development Environments, like Visual Studio, SQL Server Management Studio, PSE, Eclipse, WebStorm and almost all Text Editors where the text can be pasted from clipboard using Ctrl-V keyboard combination. ////Tips - Backspace all the way and retype the entire key, or Select the entire mistyped key and hit delete. Do not type over the selection. If the id is not recognized or if you unintentionally press some keys while typing the id in the IDE/text editor, just back space to clear the wrong key and type it again. You can also press Ctrl-V in the target window to force paste the content of the step you just tried. Steps can be repeated by typing the ID or the custom key. >> Tracking - CodeDemo shows you which step is next in order and which ones have been completed. The steps can be executed in any order. When the step is executed, a green check mark will appear in the box next to the step and the next step in the sequence is highlighted. The previously executed steps can be repeated by simply typing the id again. ::Window // Windows stays on top. TIP - Move the window to a second monitor and leave it there. Or size it really thin and move it close the edge. CodeDemo window always stays on top of all the windows on the screen. You can minimize CodeDemo window by clicking on the 'Minimize' button or by pressing the 'Escape' key when the window has the focus. You can move the window by dragging the title bar. You can resize the window by using the grip at the bottom right corner of the window.
