A snippet is a small container of re-usable code (math, text, regions). Ordinarily, it is intended as an unit to incorporate into larger programming modules.
Snippets in SMath Studio are simple *.sm files that are placed into the special "snippets" folder.
How to use a snippet
Every snippet can be inserted into the page:
- using the Dynamic Assistance;
- pressing TAB will insert snippet inside the collapsed Area Region
- pressing Shift+TAB will insert just all snippet expressions without Area Region
- directly from the "Snippet Manager" of the "Tools" menu group.
In the
Snippet Manager it is possible to download snippets made by other users and shared through the
Relase Manager; to do this, change the top-right button target from
Local storage to
Online gallery
These snippets are stored in the user's folder
%APPDATA%\SMath\extensions\snippets
How to make a snippet
To make a *.sm file a snippet, follow these steps:
- go in the File > Properties > File attributes menu and setup a Snippet Shortcut;
- save the file in the snippets folder (in Windows 7 this is usually C:\Program Files (x86)\SMath Studio\snippets);
