Hi. I'm trying to insert a code fold in a Java comment because I am hoping that using this feature will be a convenience that help obscure bits of the code (and comments) that one wouldn't wish to copy to another document using ctrl-c for instance. Have I understood the use of code folding correctly?
Anyway, I try to inset a fold into my comment. It is bounded by the lines: //<editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="comment"> //</editor-fold> When I try this, I do not see the lines I wish to be obscured disappear, nor do I see a fold control ([+]) appear in the left margin of the editor window. Is this a known issue with Netbeans 8.2, and if so, has it been solved in later versions? Do I need to turn a setting on somewhere? I've closed and re-opened the Java file, and this makes no difference. Because the fold is in a comment, the fold would be nested within the fold that appears for the whole comment (fold controls for the whole comment do appear). Is this a bug? Help appreciated... Thanks, Owen.
