I want to understand what changes are made to the html of a webpage when I use an image carousel. When I go to the next image in the carousel the html of the page updates. I would like to get a copy of the updated html so I can run diff and compare the changes to the original html.
I am interacting with the webpage through Chrome but only have access to the publicly-available source code at the moment.
I have been using Chrome's Inspect Element panel. In the 'Elements' tab I can see the html changing when I move the carousel to the next image. Despite watching the html update in the 'Elements' tab, each time I try to save the html I can only save the original html at best. Here is what I've tried:
Open 'View Source' and save the source. In hindsight, I realised this fetches the source code fresh instead of loading the source code of the current view I'm looking at.
Save the page directly from the page I'm on.
Go to the 'Sources' tab in 'Inspect Elements' and save from there.
Try to save from the 'Elements' tab directly, but I cannot figure out a way to do this. There is no save option and I cannot select the text to copy and paste.
I've tried Googling and found related-sounding headings but these contained unrelated content.
Tried Firefox's Inspect Element, which at appears to be built on the same functionality. I wonder if it's built on the same engine?
I am using Chrome 84 on Linux Mint 19 but I would be willing to use a different browser or other application that would work on my system.
I hope this is the correct Stack Exchange for this question. I initially looked at webapps.stackexchange but that didn't seem as good a match once I scanned through other questions.
In the 'Elements' tab of Inspect Elements right click on an html tag, for example <html>, and select 'Copy OuterHTML'. Paste the selection into a text editor.
This works with both Chrome and Firefox. Firefox also gives the option to 'Copy InnerHTML'. The difference between the two is that 'OuterHTML' copies the opening and closing tags while 'InnerHTML' only copies the contents within the tags.
Is there any way to customize sidebar in VS Code? In particular, I want to change the font size. Is there a user setting for that? Or, maybe, I can edit it somehow via stylesheet since it's an Electron app, like in Atom?
There are no user-defined stylesheets for vscode.
The only ways to scale various parts of the UI currently are through the overall zoom level (window.zoomLevel) and the editor's font size (editor.fontSize).
I created a feature request for this on the repo.
As mentioned in other answers there are extensions which allow injecting custom CSS, you should be careful using these as they directly manipulate the source code of VS Code which could lead to problems elsewhere and any modifications could break when you update.
I Found a way to change the font of Visual Studio Code Window.
First, open command Pallete, and type "Toggle Developer Tools"
This will open "Chrome Inspector".
Select any text of sidebar of app.
Search .monaco-shell class in "styles" tab at right side inspector ( Where show every styles of the current document ), then the font-family attribute.This is tab and stylesheets.
In workbrench.main.css hit right click and click in "Open Soruce Panel" Show like this
Format the css Code with this icon.
ctrl+f for found font-family attribute again, 'cause the format redirect to end of css document, and get .monaco-shell class like this in ~6371 line.
Change this font ( I have change to Droid sans Mono font ), but you change to you want.
Why i'm not change in the real document css
'Cause, when i changed the font family in the real document css ( C:\Users\${user}\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\vs\workbench\workbrench.main.css) generate a error saying "Vscode have a error, please reinstall the program" or similar
When generate a actualization of application, the font family declareated will deleted, and the document css is´t a pretty code.
This process change every fonts of visual studio code application (not include the editor font )
I found it very effective to use the general zoom settings (it's somewhere in that huge settings window). This adjusts the zoom level of the entire app. Tweak it till you like the size of your explorer window, then adjust the settable editor font to be readable with that zoom level. I three parallel code windows of 80 columns plus the explorer on a good 17" laptop monitor, readable if you are OK with 8pt code font (which is actually 11 point font zoomed two notches down).
Although there is no direct way of customize the sidebar from settings as #Daniel Imms mentioned in his answer, but I found 2 plugins which helped to resolve this issue. You can either one of them if you want.
1. Custom CSS and JS Loader
In Custom CSS and JS Loader plugin, you need to create a custom css and then this plugin will inject that code directly in electron-browser/index.html(as VS Code is an electron based editor). I use this CSS in my Mac:
".explorer-viewlet .mac": "font-size: 1.2em !important",
2. CustomizeUI
CustomizeUI relies on the Monkey Patch Extension to inject custom javascript in VSCode. Here is the settings I use (in settings.json) for my Mac:
"customizeUI.stylesheet": {
".explorer-viewlet .mac": "font-size: 1.2em !important; overflow: auto; border-left:none!important",
},
I have to write some documents that will include source code examples. Some of the examples will be written from the IDE, and others would be written in place. My examples are primarily in Java.
As someone who is used to LaTeX, doing this in Word is extremely painful. However, I am bound to Word for this. The only options I have seen are:
Write or copy into the document,
then use a fixed type font, arrange
formatting and hope that Word didn't
uppercase stuff for you. Needless to
say, this looks like crap.
Copy and paste screenshots of source
code from the IDE. At least I keep
colors. However, if I change my font
size, I'm screwed. I'm also screwed
across page boundaries. And let's
admit it, Word is not great at
managing multiple images on a
document.
Write HTML (not really an option
here)
Is there some better (and ideally portable) way to do this? Is there at least some sort of verbatim style similar to the LaTeX environment? Is there at least some pretty printer that I could copy-and-paste as RTF?
I absolutely hate and despise working for free for Microsoft, given how after all those billions of dollars they STILL do not to have proper guides about stuff like this with screenshots on their damn website.
Anyways, here is a quick guide in Word 2010, using Notepad++ for syntax coloring, and a TextBox which can be captioned:
Choose Insert / Text Box / Simple Text Box
A default text box is inserted
Switch to NPP, choose the language for syntax coloring of your code, go to Plugins / NPPExport / Copy RTF to clipboard
Switch back to word, and paste into the text box - it may be too small ...
... so you may have to change its size
Having selected the text box, right-click on it, then choose Insert Caption ...
In the Caption menu, if you don't have one already, click New Label, and set the new label to "Code", click OK ...
... then in the Caption dialog, switch the label to Code, and hit OK
Finally, type your caption in the newly created caption box
I recently came across this post and found some useful hints. However, I ended up using an entirely different approach which suited my needs. I am sharing the approach and my reasoning of why I chose this approach. The post is longer than I would have liked, but I believe screenshots are always helpful. Hopefully, the answer would be useful to someone.
My requirements were the following:
Add code snippets to a word document, with syntax highlighting for easier visibility and differentiation of code and other text.
Code snippet shall be inline with other text.
Code snippet shall break across pages smoothly without any extra effort.
Code snippet shall have a nice border.
Code snippet shall have spell-check disabled.
My Approach is as listed below:
Use external tool to achieve syntax highlighting requirement 1 above.
One could use notepad plus plus as described above. However, I use the tool present here - https://syntax-highlighter.k26.ch/. This gives me the option to use line number, as well as very nice syntax highlighting (Please use Google Chrome for this step, because syntax highlight is not copied when using Mozilla Firefox, as also pointed out by couple of user comments). Steps to achieve syntax highlighting are listed below:
Open the website provided above in chrome and Copy the code snippet in the text area. I will be using a sample XML to demonstrate this (XML sample from here - http://www.service-architecture.com/articles/object-oriented-databases/xml_file_for_complex_data.html).
Select the language from drop down menu.
Click "Show Highlighted" button. It will open a new tab, with syntax-highlighted code snippet, in this case the XML sample we chose. See image below for example.
To Turn off the line numbers, inspect the page in chrome. Then, under styles, deselect the "margin" property in ".dp-highlighter ol", as shown in the image below. If you want to keep the line numbers, go to next step.
Select the syntax-highlighted code and click copy. Now your code is ready to be pasted into Microsoft word.
Thanks to this blog for providing this information - http://idratherbewriting.com/2013/04/04/adding-syntax-highlighting-to-code-examples-online-and-in-microsoft-word/.
2. To achieve requirements 2, 3 and 4 above, use table in Microsoft word, to insert the code snippet. Steps are listed below:
Insert a table with single column.
Paste the copied text from step 1. in the table column. I have kept the line numbers to show how well this works with Microsoft word.
Apply border, as you like. I have used size 1pt. Resulting Microsoft word snippet will appear as shown in screenshot below. Note how nicely it breaks across the page - NO extra effort needed to manage this, which you would face if inserting "OpenDocument Text" object or if using "Simple TextBox".
To achieve requirement 5, follow the steps below:
Select the entire table or the text.
Go to Review tab. Under Language, choose "Proofing Language". A new pop-up will be presented.
Select "Do not check spelling or grammar". Then, click OK.
Resulting text has spell-check disabled. Final result is shown in the image below and meets all the requirements.
Please provide if you have any feedback or improvements or run into any issues with the approach.
You need to define a style in your Word document and use that for source code. I usually have a style called "Code" which has a monospaced font in a small point size, fixed size tabs, single line spacing, no before/after paragraph spacing, etc. You only need to define this style once and then reuse it. You paste in your source code and apply the "Code" style to it.
Note that some editors (e.g. Xcode on the Mac) add RTF as well as text to the clipboard when copying/pasting between applications - Word recognises RTF and helpfully retains the formatting, syntax colouring, etc.
Source code in Xcode:
Copied and pasted to Word:
(Note: it's a good idea to disable spell-checking in your "Code" style in Word.)
It kind of depends on the IDE. Both Visual Studio and Eclipse, for example, will allow you to copy as RTF and paste into Word, keeping all your formatting.
Notepad++ has a plugin called "NppExport" (comes pre-installed) that allows you to copy to RTF, though I don't care much for Notepad++'s syntax highlighting (it'd definitely be passable though). What it does do is support dozens of languages, whereas the aforementioned IDEs are limited to a handful each (without other plug-ins).
Use this - http://hilite.me/
hilite.me converts your code snippets into pretty-printed HTML format, easily embeddable into blog posts, emails and websites.
How:
Just copy the source code to the left pane, select the language and the color scheme, and click "Highlight!". The HTML from the right pane can now be pasted to your blog or email, no external CSS or Javascript files are required.
For Microsoft Word document: Copy the the content from the Preview section and paste to your Microsoft Word document.
3 sections : Source Code , HTML and Preview
These answers look outdated and quite tedious compared to the web add-in solution; which is available for products since Office 2013.
I'm using Easy Code Formatter, which allows you to codify the text in-place. It also gives you line-numbering options, highlighting, different styles and the styles are open sourced here: https://github.com/armhil/easy-code-formatter-styles so you could extend the styling yourself. To install - open Microsoft Word, go to Insert Tab / click "Get Add-ins" and search for "Easy Code Formatter"
This is related to this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2653406/931265
Creating an object solved all of my problems.
Insert > Object > Opendocument Text
This will open a document window, paste your text, format it how you want, and close it.
The result is a figure. Right click the object, and select 'add a caption'.
You can now make cross references, create a table of figures.
If you are still looking for an simple way to add code snippets.
you can easily go to [Insert] > [Object] > [Opendocument Text] > paste your code > Save and Close.
You could also put this into a macro and add it to your easy access bar.
notes:
This will only take up to one page of code.
Your Code will not be autocorrected.
You can only interact with it by double-clicking it.
On a Mac I find this solution with vim to be wonderful:
https://github.com/zerowidth/vim-copy-as-rtf
There is an easy way if you want simple code formatting.
Open word> Insert tab> click on "Get Add-ins"
search for "Content mixer"
3.click on "Add"
Then content mixer add will open automatically and you can copy paste your code in there and click on "Insert" to insert it in word doc.
You can use Open Xml Sdk for this. If you have the code in html with color and formatting. You can use altchunks to add it to the word documents.
Refer this post Add HTML String to OpenXML (*.docx) Document
Hope this helps!
This is what i did.

You can using Plugin Syntax Highlight in Ms.Word https://store.office.com/syntax-highlighter-WA104315019.aspx?assetid=WA104315019 . i follow that step and it's work
In Word, it is possible to paste code that uses color to differentiate comments from code using "Paste Keep Source Formatting." However, if you use the pasted code to create a new style, Word automatically strips the color coded text and changes them to be black (or whatever the auto default color is). Since applying a style is the best way to ensure compliance with document format requirements, Word is not very useful for documenting software programs. Unfortunately, I don't recall Open Office being any better.
The best work-around is to use the default simple text box.
I have tried all your methods, but they didn't work for me, in fact I have created an easier method using MS Word Tables.
Pros:
More beautiful
Easier to manage & more consistent
Are less prone to problems
No need for external plugins or MS Word micro coding.
Easier to handle by simple users (such as myself).
Cons:
It will not maintain code colouring although someone could improve my trick.
Steps:
Insert a 3x3 table, in my case I always make the total width of the table equals the free page's width (3 rows minimum to test the tables style).
Use invisible borders ("No Borders" option), and activate "View Gridlines" option. it should have this aspect.
Be ware that those lines are for you to see the table's grid, and the will not be printed.
Make the adjustments to cells' spacing and columns' width to get the aspect you like. (You will have to get in "Table Properties" for fine tuning).
Create a "Paragraph Style" with the name of "Code" just for your code snippets (check https://stackoverflow.com/a/25092977/8533804 to get the idea, you don't have to follow all of it)
Create another "Paragraph Style" with the name of "Code_numberline" that will be based upon the previous created style.
In the newly created "Code_numberline" add the numbering style that you like (this will automate line numbering).
Apply "Code_numberline" to the first column, and "Code" to the 3 column.
Add a fill in the middle column.
Save that table style and enjoy!
So I've found the majority of answers on this question to either be only semi-functional or broken entirely (eg the website used is down). This solution is entirely self-contained in Word, works across multiple pages, and keeps your syntax highlighting.
Here's the steps:
Temporarily set your IDE's theme to a light one, so that the text will fit in with the rest of your document.
Copy the required code (HTML colourising info will be copied with it).
In Word, hit Ctrl+Alt+V and choose HTML Format to paste the coloured text.
Select all your text and then expand the styles gallery on the home tab of the ribbon.
Choose "Create a style". Use a name such as "Code"
Right click your new style in the gallery and choose "Modify".
Under the formatting section, change the font to Consolas or your choice of monospace font. Also set the line spacing to Condensed (this option is next to the text alignment options).
Under the format button in the bottom left, choose "Language", then enable the "Don't check spelling or grammar" option.
If you want this style to be available in future documents, change to the "New documents based on this template" radio button.
Optional: for line numbers...
Back in the Modify Style dialogue, choose the format button again and choose "Numbering".
Choose the "Define new number format" option.
Remove the dot after the number '1' in the number format box.
Choose "Right" as the number alignment.
Hit ok, then select your new number alignment option. Finally, hit ok on the Modify Style dialog.
Finally, select your code, and set it to be the Code style, which should apply all the required formatting.
Is there a plugin to allow users to create <code/> or <pre/> blocks?
If I pass in some html that includes <code> </code> blocks the contents shows up, but with no visual indication that it is different from any other text. Thats inconvenient, but I can't seem to find a way that a user could select a block of code they typed that they want to appear literally and click a button to indicate that.
I'm still pretty new to the CKEditor, but I know Telerik has a pretty graceful implementation of this. (just click the upper right toolbar button titled "Format Code Block").
Does this editor support that? Are their any plugins that add this functionality?
As for pre-elements, there is this plugin by wwalc: http://ckeditor.com/addon/insertpre
It is also available in GitHub: https://github.com/wwalc/insertpre
The only issue is that it hasn't been updated in a while - It officially only supports CKE up to version 4.1 - so there might be some ACF problems at least. You can search for alternatives at http://ckeditor.com/addons/plugins/all using keywords like code and pre, this will always show the most up to date results.
For code blocks you can also use the Text Formats feature - by default it is available in the Standard and Full presets, though you can also add it to your custom build.
When the Format plugin is enabled, it adds the Format drop-down list to your toolbar. Check the Formatted text format - it wraps the active text block with <pre> tags. Note that it works on block-level, so you don't even need to perform any text selection. However, this also means it's not appropriate for inline formatting.
You can also add some custom styling to the Formatted format by adjusting the config.format_pre definition. See the Applying Block-Level Text Formats sample for demos of both the default implementation and custom format definition (scroll down the sample page to get the complete source code for both solutions).
As for inline code formatting, the Styles drop-down list contains the inline Computer Code style that wraps a text selection with <code> tags. Likewise, you can (and actually should) customize the styling that is applied with this feature.
Additionally, for some really fancy code formatting, see the optional Code Snippet plugin. It lets you insert code snippets with syntax highlighting into the editor. These snippets look great (you can also choose a theme that you like) and since they are implemented as widgets, they have all advantages of CKEditor widgets: a code snippet is treated as a single entity inside the editor, you can select it as a whole, delete, change its position with drag&drop etc. See the documentation and sample for more information and examples.
