Edit in Multiple Tabs in the Text Editor
You can have multiple files open simultaneously in API Designer’s text editor. Each file can be open in its own tab.
Opening Files in New Tabs
There are four ways that you can open a file in a new tab:
-
Open the context menu for a file in the file tree by clicking the three dots to its right, and then select Open in new tab.
-
Press the Command key (MacOS) or the Control key (Windows) and click the name of the file in the file tree. +[NOTE]
Clicking a filename in the file tree without first pressing either of these keys replaces the file that is open in the current tab.
-
Place your cursor in the name of a file in a file reference such as an
includetag in RAML or a$refkeyword in OAS.Then, press the Command key (MacOS) or the Control key (Windows) and click the filename.
-
Click a filename in the Location column in the errors view at the bottom of the screen.
