Describes the editor feature in the IDE, in particular the intelligent code completion that is aware of OPL syntax and OPL model structures.

Editor features
Provides a table of the features available in the IDE editor.
Keyboard shortcuts
Lists the keyboard shortcuts available to you in the CPLEX® Studio IDE.
Code completion
Describes the features of the IDE editor that provide assistance when you enter OPL code.
Highlighting all occurrences of an OPL element
When you select an OPL element in a model, all occurrences of the element are highlighted.
Finding and removing references to an OPL element
When you select an OPL element in a model, the OPL editor identifies all references to the element. You can remove some, or all, of them.
Renaming elements globally
When you rename an element in a model, all occurrences of the element are renamed.

The code formatting function allows you to correctly format a selected block of code. This is particularly useful if you receive a file containing unformatted code.
LP viewer
Export a model using the CPLEX solver to an LP file, and view the LP file in the IDE.
Export a model using CP to a CPO file
You can export a model that uses a CP solver to a CPO file to help you debug the model.
Model templates
Describes how to use the model templates feature in the IDE.
Local History and its related features
How to track and compare different versions of your files as you edit them in the CPLEX Studio IDE.
'Compare With' features
