Multi-line Comments in Standard Function (Opus/External)?

[PYCHBI]

Is there a way to write multi-line comments in a Standard Function (Opus or external)?

I know that in JScript-type, you can use:

/*
  multi-line
  comment
*/

The issue is that I often write longer descriptive text inside Standard Function buttons, and those texts can get quite lengthy.
However, the command editor doesn't auto-wrap based on window size, this forces me to manually break long text into multiple lines for readability, and then prepend // to every single one, which is tedious.

Agreed.

Standard function block comments

Block comments should be supported within a standard function along with the existing single line comment (//). Who wants to single line comment several lines and then later potentially remove the comments? Sure there are other ways to go about it li…

I think adding multi-line comments to Standard Function would be quite useful. Has this been considered? For example, selecting a few lines of text and then pressing Ctrl+/ to comment them out? Or add something like /* <multiple-lines> */ syntax?

I think the editor's functionality comes mostly from a third‑party library (brainchild) and is limited by it.

@lxp

a third‑party library (brainchild) and is limited by it.

But it can be done when the function type is set to 'Script Function'. If it's really not possible then at the very least a shortcut could be added to toggle single-line comments to selected lines as a whole.
