How to install a font in Windows 7 - windows

I'm trying to install Source Code Pro and the Windows documentations says
Open Fonts by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button,
clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and
then clicking Fonts.
But I don't see fonts listed.
I was able to install Anonymous Pro by clicking on the downloaded .ttf file and choosing install, but Source Code Pro is a little different.
-- Edit 1
I was able to get to %windir%\fonts but the next line of the documentation says:
Click File, and then click Install New Font.
And when I click File, I don't see an "Install New Font" menu option.
-- Edit 2
I just downloaded the font binaries from sourceforge and installed it by clicking on the .ttf file.

Just press start+r on your keyboard and then type fonts. Press ok and that's it.

How to change or add dark theme to CodeBlocks?

I have just installed Codeblocks in my Windows.
When I launch the application the background of the screen where we write the code is white.
I would prefer black or any other color.
I am not sure whether we can change the color/theme OR add more themes.
Follow this tutorial. It will only change the code editor area though, not the menus and toolbars.
First, you need to download some syntax color schemes, so I recommend you to download this file: colour_themes.conf. Then you will have to install it. Follow these steps:
Close the program Code::Blocks.
Run the program cb_sharing_config.exe (for Windows users, so it's your case). For Linux or Mac users, run the command cb_share_config from the tereminal.
This program has 2 columns. In the left column, you have to load the downloaded file: colour_themes.conf. In the right column, you have to indicatae the file default.conf (it will find the path automatically).
Select the themes you want to import to Code::Blocks. Then, click Transfer to transfer them to the file default.conf. Finally click Save. You probably want to select them all to use them later.
Now, the color schemes are installed, so it's time to select a new one:
Open the program Code::Blocks.
Go to the menu: Settings > Editor and select the tab Syntax highlighting.
You will see a select box with the label colour theme; select one.

How to open a file in the current editor panel from the Explorer in Visual Studio Code?

I can select the explorer tab in Visial Studio Code by pressing CMD+0.
From there I can open a file in a new editor tab by pressing CTRL+Enter.
Enter starts renaming
CMD+o shows the open file window
But how can I just open the file in the current editor panel without creating a new tab?
We can see in the screenshot that the "selected" (silhouetted) file in the Explorer panel was able to be opened via CTL-Enter: but it is in a new editor panel to the right :
![enter image description here
Let's open another file now using CTL-Enter: we can see there are now three editor panels:
That's clearly going to get problematic pretty rapidly..
Its "SPACE". At least in my installation.
The corresponding setting is filesExplorer.openFilePreserveFocus

Xcode11 Editors (via "Add Editor to Right") are disabled

It has been working all this while since I upgraded to Xcode11.2. A couple of days back noticed it and now it's not allowing me to add an editor to the layout. Similar to Editor changes introduced in Xcode 11.
Tried:
Restarting Xcode
Rebooting MacBook
No Xcode update pending in AppStore
Any other suggestions to try before reinstalling the Xcode?
Current State for Xcode:
Disabled Editor add option
Disabled Editor option via Menu->Editor
Update A:
After using "Adjust Editor Option"
This Assistant is not the same as regular editor.
An editor would allow the user to independently open any file (and not always show to counterpart files). Plenty of visual space as using external monitor 24".
Update 2:
It seems to be an issue with the current project only (perhaps some messed up .xcodeproj setting?). Opened another project, and I'm able to see the "Add editor on right" just fine.
Unfocus the Editor
Turned out to be that Editor was in focused mode. As soon as an editor is in focused mode, Xcode hides the other editors and disables "adding editors to right" option on the menu and right bar.
Use the following key combination to toggle the focus-unfocus the editor.
Control + Shift + Command + Enter
Or use the
Assistant Editor
Assistant is now under the editor option menu (left itme).
Also you can use control+option+command+return shortcut
Add Editor
The other one that is disabled is Add Editor on Right. Some times its getting disabled because there is not enough space to show another editor. You can change the position of it to below by holding option and click. This will convert it to Add Editor Below

Increasing fonts in Netbeans 8.2

I have a problem with increasing fonts in Netbeans 8.2. I tried to use screenshot form editor .but Im not able to find Fonts & Colors option in tools or menu.
I also tried to press down Alt+z and scroll up or down (mouse wheel) and also use command + but nothing happens.
With third one --fontsize (I have no idea where I should put it...). Could you help me with making fonts a bit bigger?:)
I just solved problem:) On Mac settings are in a different place:preferences in Netbeans
fonts a color changing. Netbeans
You have to go to the left up corner, near to the apple mark, there you have NetBeans preferences. After clicking on Netbeans preferences just search for 'font' and here is font size changing option.:)
edit: And if you didnt start a project, you need to create a new project on Netbeans then Fonts&Colors section will be available in options menu.
I think you are a mac user.
You need to look at this for config file location.
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqNetbeansConf
And I also found this. Try this one too.
1.Use Command + , to open the options
2.Select Fonts & Colors tab
3.Click the button in the Font section (button is next to the Font textbox)
4.Change the Font, style and size as needed
In Mac
simply click on the netbeans (upper left corner)
then-> preferences...
a new window will be open and select the font&color Tab
then on right side there will be a font option then click on the "..." option
and then change according to your wish

How do I activate the Zen coding key bindings in Sublime Text 2?

I just downloaded the Zen coding package for Sublime Text 2, but I can't figure out how to activate it.
I already have it in Netbeans, and here you just have to press CTR+ALT+N, but this doesn't work in the Sublime editor.
Google didn't yield any results, so I'm asking here.
Can someone tell me how to activate the Zen coding function?
press Ctrl+Alt+Enter and you'll get a text input box at the bottom of the screen, titled: Enter Koan:. as you type the zen expression into the box it will simultaneously unfold on the screen.
Alternatively, you can type the zen expression in the editor and press tab to expand it. Be sure not to leave any spaces inside the expression or after it.
I have been using Sublime Text 2 beta, build 2139 on Windows (but I'm also pretty sure this should work on Mac OS and Linux too) and here's how I got it to work:
After installing Sublime Text 2 itself, install Package Control
for Sublime Text 2. This is an add-on that allows you to easily
manage another add-ons.
I couldn't get the first installation option to work so I went for
the manual method. On my installation there was no folder called
"Installed packages", instead I've used "Pristine Packages" folder
which seemed to contain other, already installed extensions.
Restart Sublime Text 2
With Package Control installed open Sublime Text 2 editor and choose Preferences -> Package Control -> Package Control : Install Package from the menu. Hit "Enter" and there should be a list of packages available for installation displayed on the screen. Start typing "Zen" and Zen-Coding will be presented. When selected hit "Enter" again, status bar on the bottom of the screen will be showing installation progress.
When it's done - restart Sublime Text 2 one last time. Now, you can expand Zen-Coding abbreviations with 'ctrl+space' or 'tab'.
Remember it will only work in the saved file, with extension "html". (in particular - it won't work on the new document you've just created).
I hope this helps
To expand your zencoding, just press TAB. However, for a full list of all the keybindings, look in your Zencoding folder for a file called "Default (NAME_OF_YOUR_OPERATING_SYSTEM).sublime-keymaps". To get to the package, go to "Preferences > Browse Packages > zencoding".
Ctrl + Opt (Alt on a PC) + Enter. Check out the video.
See this post : Zen coding downloading trouble
and my comments for detailed instructions.
Also, after an upgrade, just replace the folder with the original one from
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1292831/ZenCoding.zip
Good Luck ..
Download this one; https://github.com/sergeche/zencoding-sublime
It works on SublimeText2 2.0.1 build 2217 windows.
After install Emmet package, remember to restart sublime editor and save a file first to try it!. I thought it wasn't working after install, but it just needs a saved file to work on it.
