  In v 8.7, this option was added to sqlyog:
  
  — The Editor now has a ‘folding option’. Multi-line code and comment blocks between bracket-pairs, BEGIN-END pairs, C-style comment pairs (/* and */), WHILE-END WHILE pairs, LOOP-END LOOP pairs, REPEAT-END REPEAT pairs and CASE-END CASE pairs can now be ‘folded’ in/out (ie: hidden or unhidden).
  
  Is there a way to turn this on and off? I like to put comments in my stored procedures and this 'folding option' makes the sproc hard to read.

  There is no way to turn it off currently. But why is it 'hard to read' ?

  It is hard to read if you use /**/ as a commented out line.
  
  The folding option “sees” the /* as the start of a comment, but doesn't see the */ on the same line. So it blocks out all lines until it “sees” the next */.
  
  For example:
  
  /**/
  
  update tablea set blah = “”;
  
  /**/
  
  It treats this update statement as a commented out line when it really isn't.

  “The folding option “sees” the /* as the start of a comment, but doesn't see the */ on the same line. So it blocks out all lines until it “sees” the next */.” is not reproducible witj the latest internal development build I use. If you build has this it is a plain bug. What version are you using?
  
  Please *report a bug as a bug* and don't *request a workaround for bugs*.
  
  If i enter this
  
  Code:
  
  /* */
  
  */
  
  .. the folding symbols don't appear what means that this “/* */” is seen as 'matching'.

  Issue confirmed with this
  
  Code:
  
  /**/
  
  */
  
  (no space in “/**/”). We are checking the code now.

  Hi S. Lines,
  
  The issue is fixed now and will be available in the next public release. It was a bug in syntax highlighting and not with the code folding. This happens when you have a comment /**/ with nothing in between /* and */. Thank you for reporting the issue.
