How to change internal text editor setting for guard and action fields in Rhapsody

Question & Answer


Question

How do you change internal text editor setting for guard and action fields in IBM Rational Rhapsody?

  1. Right click on the editor and select Property in the context menu

  2. Select Misc tab

  3. Change following settings and then click OK

    For example:
    Clear Show left margin
    Check Confine caret to text
