Question: How to reenter a snippet after leaving it?

#1

Hi there,

Say I’ve got a snippet that looks like this:
tag: $1

When first adding the snippet, I type my tabtrigger (let’s say “tag”), hit “tab”, and then I’m magically typing in the $1 field. Say I then move my cursor and start editing some text elsewhere in my document, and then decide to come back to make a change to the $1 field - is there a way to actually “reenter” the snippet, not just edit the plain text? In certain cases this would be very helpful to preserve formatting in snippets that automatically maintain indenting, for example.

Thanks!

Welp, figured that one out about two seconds after posting. Option + Shift + Tab while the cursor is in the snippet should do it.
