On the overview ruler in the right part of the editor window, the locations of errors such as those that have occurred during build are indicated by rectangles in different colors representing error categories. Selecting a rectangle on the ruler displays the relevant source line.
The COBOL editor supports the following display items:
Errors
Tasks
Bookmarks
Breakpoints
Warnings
Search results
Debugging of instruction points
Debugging of invocation stacks
Changing the display settings
To change the display settings of the overview ruler:
Select "Window" > "Preferences" from the menu bar. The Preferences dialog box appears.
Select "General" > "Editor" > "Text Editors" > "Annotations" in the left pane. The "Annotations" page is displayed.
Select a setting item from "Annotation types". The setting indicating whether to display the selected item on the overview ruler can be changed, as well as the color used to display it.
Note
Setting information is shared among editors; therefore, changing the settings in the NetCOBOL Studio Editor changes those settings in the other editors also.
