Quick Tour
After installing NB Figlet create or open a text file, type a header on a line then press Ctrl + Alt + F, you should get something like the following:
Alternatively select some text, right click on it to bring up the context menu and choose Figletize (should be after Paste item) as in the following image:
- If no text is selected the entire line is figletized
- If some text is selected the text from the beginning of the line up to the selected text is repeated on every generated line: this is particularly useful to maintain comment characters (e.g.
//in Java) - Figletizing words in javadoc comments is not recommended because they are re-formatted by default: either use line (
//) or block (/* ... */) comments or disable comment formatting in Tools > Options > Editor > Formatting > Java > Comments.
