Qlik Script syntax highlighter for code samples in the Qlik Community

Vegar — Fri, 07 Feb 2020 22:06:28 GMT

I use the _Incert Code_ quite often when helping others. It is a good way of distinguish code from text, but it could become better with some Qlik Sense syntax highlighting.

I know Matthew Fryer (I can not find his community username no more) have a Git project that is parsing script into qlik syntax colors. https://github.com/MattFryer/Qlik-Web-Highlight

It would be great if this or similar become available in the community forum.

In addition I would also love to see the "Insert Code" button avialable when posting on a mobile device.

@Sue_Macaluso Did you ever get any feedback from your team on this. It would be really nice having Qlik Script Syntax highlighting in the code sample sections.

Qlik syntax highlighting is missing from the list of possible syntax highlightings.

Hi Vegar,

Thanks for following up on this. We've looked into this feature request, but it is not on our roadmap for development at this time.

Best regards,

Jeremy
