Format Option missing in Selenium IDE menubar

Some people are only using Selenium IDE to prepare their test suites and run it from there. But, most of the people using Selenium RC code and run it from their favourite language editor. Usually they record the web application actions in IDE and convert the selenese table format into Java or C# or Perl or Ruby etc format. Those format can be copy & pasted into language editors like Eclipse (Java) or Visual Studio (C#) and we can run the code from there.

But, the recent issue with IDE is that we dont find any language options under Format. These options are disabled from the version IDE 1.0.11 as they declared these options as Experimental features. Because, if you convert them into any language format and make some modifications, again IDE will not be able to convert them into selenese table format if you want to revert back. If you still want those experimental features, follow the below steps in IDE:

1) Under Options menu, click on Options
2) Select "Enable experimental features" option and click on OK.



Now come back to Options --> Format. You will be able to see all the language formats.
