With auto-bracketing enabled, when you entering the first of two paired elements, the matching element
is automatically inserted to the right of the cursor. Auto-bracketing works with:
- Double and single
quotation marks
- Brackets and parentheses (
"{", "[", "(")
Note the following:
- When you type a single or a double quote mark, the ending quote mark is
automatically added. If you start typing in between quote marks and add
another ending quote mark, the additional quote mark is not added.
- You can delete an ending character that is automatically added, for example
an ending quote mark, by pressing Backspace.
- If you want to insert a quote mark inside existing quote marks, type ~ and
add another quote mark.
