Feature Showcase: Snippet that Prompts for Input

Create a snippet that prompts for input. This showcase uses an interpolation shortcut to prompt for a string that is interpolated into the snippet.

Before you start: If necessary, display the Toolbox tab (View|Tabs|Toolbox).

Click in the Add button to create a new snippet in the Toolbox.

Configure the snippet. The %ask segment is an interpolation shortcut that prompts for an entry when the snippet is used.

Double-click the snippet. A dialog box is displayed prompts for the "Company Name" value.

The value is interpolated into the comment configured in the snippet.
