Add Position Indicators

Use position indicators to mark an exact position within the Editor that you can return to quickly. Position indicators differ from bookmarks because they identify an absolute location within the file (line, char) and not just a line number. Position indicators are also more temporary than bookmarks and are automatically removed when you return to their position in the Editor.

This feature is a useful if you need to return to a position in the Editor once or if you are using the indicator in conjunction with Code Snippets.

To add a position indicator

Place the cursor at the exact position in the Editor where you want to add a position indicator.
Press SHIFT+ESC.

Tip: To move the cursor to the location of the last indicatorthat was added, press ESC.
