Code snippet question
Hello,
I am closed to buy PHPStorm but there is something that really bugs me, without this it is going to cause me to drop the software.
I am used(with another interface) to have a librady windows on the left side of my screen with categories like:
PHP
MYSQL
JQUERY
BOOTSTRAP 3
Below each category there are subs like:
PHP
->mysqli Insert
->mysqli update
->echo date
->How to do this
->How to do that
and so on...
This enables me to read it before typing it and also edit my code on the fly, by simply dragging the sub to the screen, the code shows up.
I tried the template in PHP Storm but there is a big problem with it, sometime it might not be a code but a whole solution with various explanation to get from point A to Point B and you might need to read through this before implementing it.
I just cannot find a similar feature in PHP storm apart from the templates but the templates have to be typed with short codes first which do not enable you to read through the actual code because hand....
I hope you understand the issue, do you know any ways around this please?

Unfortunately, currently there's no such a feature in PhpStorm. There's a feature request though: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEABKL-7575
Also, there's a third party plugin, but I am not sure to what extent it can cover your needs: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/4456-quick-notes
Thanks Eugene,
