Barak Kinarty shares this very useful QTip regarding QTP’s IDE:
In most DEV IDE there is an option to mark text as "Vertical Segment Selection" – meaning, instead of selecting the entire text from the start point to the end point, only selecting the text in a specific vertical column.
Turns out you can "Segment Mark/Select" a text in QTP by starting to select text normally with the left mouse button and then add the right mouse while you are clicking on the left one, and move the mouse and it will select the code as a rectangle selection instead of a normal selection.
This can be extremely useful for copying / pasting data from and to a complex script.
See example in the screenshots between normal selection and the one mentioned above:
Normal Selection:
Vertical Segment Selection:
Thanks, Barak, for this excellent time-saving QTip!

Just some nostalgia, you used to be able to do this in a Word document, using the Alt key with the LMC, but they messed it up in 2007. It’s no longer exact and is now rather useless.
