Keyboard Shortcut to Toggle Un/Comment Out for Oracle APEX


For this Mod for Oracle APEX Page Designer, we are going to add a Ctrl+Shift+/
keyboard shortcut to APEX.
This shortcut does the equivalent of the Comment Out or Uncomment Out feature by toggling between the two.
It’s much faster to bulk select items with the mouse and then use the Ctrl+Shift+/
keyboard shortcut to toggle the build status than it is to popup the menu and locate the entry. For example:
Instructions
Here is what you need to do:
Install Violentmonkey by clicking on the one of the Installation options. Alternatively, If you are unable to install Violentmonkey, this method also works absolutely fine in Tampermonkey.
Open APEX Page Designer
Click the Violentmonkey browser extension icon and click the ➕ icon
Replace all the code with this code and click Save & Close
This is my 3rd Tampermonkey mod; I’ll get them all tied together soon.
ENJOY
