[CLOSED] Multiple selections editing / extensions access #10714

Hi! I've tried 2 extensions (1, 2) to proceed changing to lower/upper case. None of them could operate in all selections, but only in first or last. The same issue occurs when I want to replace in selections. Seems like Brackets doesn't serve multiselections for extensions.

@RafaelOlivra It's the responsibility of Extension Authors to build in multiple selection support into their extensions. I added multiple selection support to my Brackets Quick Markup extension. Closing.

OK, thanks. I wish that Brackets has native features for replacing or case-toggling in multiple selections...

@RafaelOlivra Yes, I could have used built-in case-toggling recently.

But, replace works. Once you have multiple selections you can simply type or paste to replace all selections. There is also a subtle behavior where if you select N items and copy, then select exactly N (or a multiple of N) items and paste, it replaces each item in order from the copy.

Thanks! Clever trick :)
