You currently have a shortcut and menu option to toggle a comment around a block of code. This adds in a single line comment to each line. You should also add in a block comment option and shortcut as well. I also think you should change your shortvut mapping. You currently have ctrl+c and I noticed that ctrl+/ also works. I suggest you take away ctrl+c and make it ctrl+/ and then for the block comment do ctrl+shirt+/ to get the block comment option. You may even want to add a phpdoc shortcut as well. I don't think you even have a menu option for that. PHPDoc comments are a common practice and a best practice and should probably have a menu option and shortcut to add them. Thanks
I think these are good suggestions.
PHPDoc comments are easy to produce. Just go above the function or variable you want to document and type: /** then hit enter. That will produce a skeleton that is intelligent about the contents of the function etc. There's no keyboard shortcut but its easy to set up a macro for it that makes it easy. I set one up with the following contents: "/**" insert-break I mapped this to SHIFT+META+C (i'm on a mac, you could use CTRL instead of META) so I just hit those keys above a function and BAM, there's a mostly-done PHPdoc for my function :) Once you have PHPDoc comments they do indeed fold just like functions and will fold/unfold when you do the 'fold all' and 'unfold all' commands. That said its annoying because folded PHPDoc comments don't show any information, just [+] /** [...] I made an enhancement ticket about showing the first line of the comment in folded PHPDocs if you're interested in voting for it :) http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=169660 With regard to your request to change the keyboard shortcuts you should probably just change them yourself in the keymapping options.
