F2 Syntax Highlight

Embedded languages and text elements in F2 Process configuration files are highlighted with the appropriate language theme.

Ruby

<Script> elements in taskguide files and <Source> elements in taskguide script files contain ruby source code.

With F2 Syntax Highlight the ruby script becomes more readable. Additionally, the language context becomes ruby instead of xml. This enables ruby snippets and correct comment-command style.

Regex

<Regex> elements are used to define a valid set of characters as input for selfservice and taskguide fields. This is done with a regular expression.

Regular expressions are often complicated, but syntax highlight can help make sense of it all.

TextMerge

Some text elements and attributes use the TextMerge engine to allow dynamic replacement of values in the text.

In TextMerge contexts, syntax highlight distinguishes between ordinary text and merge fields.

SQL

Expression

Many elements and attributes in TaskGuide and SelfService files are expressions that can include identifiers and methods.

Syntax highlighting can make it easier to get an overview of the expressions.
