Everytime I want to work on a study, opening the code editor is a hassle. Is there a better way to edit thinkscript than clicking Studies -> Edit Studies -> Right click Study name -> Edit? Thanks.

Hi There indeed is a better way to do editing. I am an experienced professional web developer/programmer and for years have used VSCODE. Over the last few weeks I became interested in using thinkscript thanks to your excellent videos. Once I decided that I would learn thinkscript my first thought was is there an extension for thinkscript in VSCODE. VSCODE is a robust editing development tool used for Javascript, pearl, C#,VB, Terminal emulation and even Cobol. It's advantages include syntax checking, debug and terminal consoles and so many other wonderful tools. The extension come from github and VSCODE is a free complex editor with tons of manuals, youtube videos and books to learn from. I am just starting to play with the extension. Usually these extensions have syntax checking but I am not sure if this extension does. Learning VSCODE is fairly easy if you are at all comfortable with coding or EXCEL or VB scripts. I will let you know how it goes with VSCODE and thinkscript. https://www.screencast.com/t/UWQubKH1iuXQ Marked as spam

Nope, not really. I can only save you one mouse click. Which is Studies --> Edit Studies --> click the script icon. Marked as spam

Hi guys, I just found a solution :) One guy has already developed the extension for thinkscript in VS Code. So, you can install VS Code and use it: VS Code -> Extensions (left menu) -> search for thinkscript -> install. Change your file extension to tosts and use it :) Marked as spam
