Using Smart Quotes

By default, Flare adds straight quotation marks when you type them in the XML Editor. However, you can select an option to automatically use single and double curly smart quotes instead when you work in the editor. This option is disabled by default. If your project is using a language that does not use straight quotation marks, Flare replaces quotes based on your project's current language. Additionally, if you are using a different language in a specific topic or tag, Flare will use the correct smart quote for that language setting.

How to Use Smart Quotes

  1. Select File > Options.

  2. Select the XML Editor tab.
  3. Click Replace straight quotes with smart quotes.
  4. Click OK.

Note Selecting this option does not automatically replace all of the straight quotes that you already have throughout your project. In order to do that, you should use the Find and Replace in Files window pane to find all of the files in the project containing straight quotes and then enter smart quotes in their place. See Finding and Replacing Text.
