How to use Coffee-Bytes code folding

Firstly, you’ll need to configure Coffee Bytes Java folding as the folding scheme to use, and then enable User Defined Regions, as shown below.

Secondly, you’ll need to configure the start and end identifiers that will be used to identify the beginning and termination of regions in your code. In this case, I’ve chosen {{ and }} as it fits well with the Apache Isis templates that I use.

Finally, I use the same start and end identifiers in my code to demarcate regions and to trigger the Coffee Bytes folding plugin to recognize the same. After saving the preferences, your user-defined regions should immediately take effect (although you may need to close and re-open any open code files).
