Is there a way to comment out selected lines ? The /* */ break when used multiple times 

Thank you

As William stated above, but I use the "#ifndef" instead!

#ifndef COMMENT // or any word of your choosing

        // ignore this section

#endif
 

Thank you guys .

I am extremely stupid though , they actually have it hidden in a context menu ... 

how embarrassing ... sorry

Sorry, but I don't follow you! Your question was about nested /* */ comment blocks, not about single line // comments!

But, if that solves your issue, than good for you. Then it's resolved.

it was a mix , i was not clear . I had a big code segment , heavily commented out with /**/ as i tend to do , so i wanted to comment it all out to not see the errors from it but wanted to keep it in place to see how some things were done . So the #ifndef solution kept firing errors
