Use the Script Editor

The Script Editor provides Python file editing, completion, checking, review, formatting, fixes, and external-editor synchronization.

Contents

• Script Editor Interface
• Open a Script File and Save a Script File
• Basic Editing and Find and Go to Line
• Code Completion and Parameter Hints
• Check and Review Scripts
• Format and Fix Scripts
• Use the Output Panel
• Use an External Editor

Recommended workflow

Open a tool or file, write with completion, run Check, optionally Review/Format/Fix, save, and then run. Inspect the application Output window for runtime records. Code intelligence and runtime are separate: a temporary completion or formatter failure does not necessarily prevent execution.
