BenHayat @ SUPPORT; It would be VERY helpful if we could add "Comments" in the rule section and also be able to "Comment out" and rule line. Lots of times during development and testing, I need to comment out a line or two for testing. Any line (or part of a line) that starts with "//" should be ignored by rule engine. Thank you in advance!
BenHayat weblike wrote+1 very useful. Instead of deleting a line/rule we could activate/deactivate. We are in 2016 and in 1976 (40 years ago), I was able to have comment lines, in my Fortran, Cobol, RPG, Basic, and assembly programs. 😃 :mrgreen:
BenHayat pbrad wroteJust put in a condition that will never be met like 0=1 Rules are not always conditional. and sometimes there are multiple lines of actions to disable and enable during testing. Getting around it, wasn't my question/request in this post.
pbrad Rules always have the option to apply a condition and adding a condition of 0=1 effectively rems out any rule and will rem out a rule or process no matter how many lines of actions there are in it.. I have been doing it for 10 years quite successfully but thank you for clarifying for me why you posted your thread and why my response was inappropriate. Perhaps there are users that are not as senior as you that might benefit from my advice however.
customaware I would like to be able to disable (not delete) any Action(s) but have the Rule itself still execute. Also, to be able to have a Comment Action row would be really helpful at times.
tford I would like to be able to disable (not delete) any Action(s) but have the Rule itself still execute. And if this feature is added, it would be very helpful to search and find all places where "disable" is used.

And if this feature is added, it would be very helpful to search and find all places where "disable" is used. My original request was to be able to comment out a single line or multiple lines. The word "disable" triggers a better idea or feature adding to the code editor to "disable" a section of code not to execute, and then be able to search "disabled" codes as Tom suggested. This is a real needed feature during testing and diagnosing problems.
