Is there any trick to collapse one portion of code in Zend Studio 9?
I can collapse functions and/or classes, but there is no support for "if statements" folding nor selection.
There is no a way to do it with Zend Studio 9. I continue to use Komodo IDE instead.

R# has a feature called "live templates" that seems to duplicate the "Code Snippets" feature in built into VS, although it's probably more featureful.
How do the 2 features interact? E.g. I see R# has imported its templates from VS's snippets. What if I edit a VS snippet, that also already exists as a R# template?
VS version: 2015
R# version: 10
They don't interact at all, they're completely separate features. The imported tag that ReSharper uses is a bit of a misnomer. They're not really imported, just copied from the default set of VS snippets. The tag is intended to show that they provide the same functionality as VS snippets, but are separate.
If you edit a VS snippet, it won't affect a ReSharper template, and vice versa. ReSharper will use ReSharper templates in code completion and the editor, but will also expand a VS snippet if you type it and hit Tab. You can also use the keyboard shortcuts or VS menu items to invoke the default VS snippet insertion UI and insert VS snippets that way.
Every time I type an emmet string and press tab visual studio replaces it with just the main element. Then i realized it was preferning the the snippet that it was auto suggesting. Is there a way around this or fix it? I am using Visual Studio 2013 Community edition on windows 7 64bit if that makes any difference
I found the problem, I was using another plugin called Viasafora that colors braces and makes it easier to to see your indentations it had a default option for showing completions ans you type. I had to go turn it off.
I installed Coderush express and I can see that it is installed. (I can see that Camel Case Navigation works). But I can see any other feature works. Based on this page: http://community.devexpress.com/blogs/markmiller/archive/2009/06/25/coderush-xpress-for-c-and-visual-basic-2008.aspx
I cannot see any of these feature to works:
Tab to Next Reference : no effect when I put caret on a variable and press tab ( a tab inserted at the middle of my variable name!)
Highlight All References: pressing ctrl+alt +u add a ascii character to source code.
Quick Navigation: Ctrl +Shift + Q has no effect.
Quick File Navigation : Ctrl +Alt +F brings up F# interactive
Selection Increase and Selection Reduce doesn't work: generate a beep
Declare: ctrl +` has no effect.
and ...
Any idea why this is happening? I am using VS2010.
Presumably due to your using a different version of Visual Studio.
The page you linked to is pretty clear about it being for Visual Studio 2008, but you've included the visual-studio-2010 tag.
CodeRush Xpress fully supports all language features of Visual Basic and C# in Visual Studio 2008.
Edit
Version of Visual Studio wasn't the problem after all.
It appears to just be that the tool makes very little visible change to the Visual Studio user interface, so it looks like it hasn't loaded.
It seems that your installation is corrupt. I would recommend you contact DevExpress Support directly. The support team is better equipped to resolve any issues you face with their products. They offer a very short response time and high qualification. I would also recommend that you reinstall the product.
The features you are asking about, were removed on purpose from VS2010 version of Coderush XPress. More info here:
Experience with Coderush XPress and Visual Studio 2010?
Whenever I add a tab in VS 2010, it puts spaces instead. I know you could fix this problem by going in the VS 2008 options, but I can't figure out how to fix this in VS 2010.
Tools > Options > Text Editor > All Languages > Tabs > enable "Keep Tabs".
You can also adjust this setting on a per-language basis.
Regarding the first anwser ...
"Keep Tabs" will only work until you start using linq queries.
When visual studio formats linq queries adds some spaces for paddind.
There are no built-in support in vs2010 for strict indentation using tabs.
Is there a Visual Studio extension (similar to CnPack in Delphi) that adds guide lines to boundaries of flow of controls like the begin..end of if, while and for statements?
You can try CodeRush It includes Structural Highlighting
