@donho said in Notepad++ 8.1.5 RC2:

Could you download the build of Appveyor and confirm me the bug has been fixed?

YES! That PR produced AppVeyor artifact (MSVC Release 64-bit) fixes the Plugin Admin issue I reported.

Thanks for the quick turnaround!

Cheers.

@PeterJones
Thank you for your heads up!

The bug (not an easy one) has been fixed:
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/bc2e6891858cb646ce9fa54b7be206675325ed97

It’s 4:30 AM here so I’ll do RC2 rather tomorrow. In the meanwhile please try the Appveyor’s build, and let me know if some side effects that I missed. Thank you!

After the update, I lost all open documents and settings that I did .

@PeterJones
Thank you for your heads up.
A PR has been created, and it’ll be in the next (8.1.5) release:
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pull/10440

It seems this RC is quite reliable, the release will be available within 1 day.
Thank you for your test!

@Json-Park said in Notepad++ v8.1.3 Released:

Highlight means “style token” using 1st or 2nd style (blue orange yellow, violet…)

In older versions of Notepad++, the behavior was governed by fixed, internal logic to the program.
Some users found that inflexible.
Now behavior of this is governed by new Preference settings, try adjusting these:

After PR 10265 there is also the “Link” possibility in the Settings -> Preferences -> Dark Mode dialog, but the relevant translation item has not been added(?).

PR 10265 made the Preferences dialog and some other dialogs dark_modable, it didn’t add new GUI component, therefore nothing to be translated.

The translation of dark-mode page of preferences has been done in previous PR. Here is the added entries in english.xml:
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/PowerEditor/installer/nativeLang/english.xml#L853

And Dark Mode readability of the disabled text on the same dialog page is not optimal (to see: switch in between the radio button “Black tone” and “Customized tone” and compare the color-picker labels appearance). In a different place it is much better (e.g. under the Dark Mode on try switch ANSI<->UTF-8 in the Preferences -> New Document -> Encoding and check the text “Apply to opened ANSI files” beside) .

Indeed. It seems the radio button / checkbox has the different dark-mode behaviour from the label’s one. I will check it in the code.

edit:: regarding the dark mode small visual glitch, it’s how system handle it, it’s not bug in Notepad++. Therefore nothing to be fixed:

@Ekopalypse said in Notepad++ v8.1.1 is available:

regexBackward4PowerUser

great, many thanks for that

@mere-human Thanks for being prepared to give it a try but, as it was made clear above that making the entire file and shortcuts available was massively overstepping the bounds and etiquette of the forum, I immediately took down the link.

I’m sorry to say this was down to my naivety (as this is my first time posting to the forum), for which I apologise.

@donho said in Notepad++ v8.1.2 Release Candidate:

By “Search menu” I guess you mean “find dialog”. Indeed. But I cannot find another better description.

Suggestion:
Active - >Tabs Color or fix find dialog inversion of tabs.
Disabled text -> Disabled option
Edge -> Separators
Top -> Panel bar

)))

@donho ,

Thanks for this.

I can confirm that

Auto-completion performance is back to where it should be, rather than the super-slow from v8.0. Great! “Open” looks much better than “Save” in the Open dialog. ;-) Thanks! The fix for #9939, which just missed the deadline for v8.0, is correctly working in v8.1 (I can get the extension appended with Enter, Alt+S, or hitting Save button).

So the fixes that I was most looking forward to after v8.0 are all working in v8.1-RC2.

Thanks for all your effort (@donho and the rest of the v8.1 contributors)!

@dinkumoil
Thank you for your report.
It’s fixed in RC2:
https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/21337/notepad-v8-1-release-candidate-2

Hello @hmin124, @peterjones and All,

Indeed, the apostrophe ( \x27 ) should be considered as a valid character, in Internet addresses, only when not followed with a regex space char. So, if the regex \x27(?!\s) matches the ' !

Best regards,

guy038

@Alan-Kilborn ,

I brought it up in the original “Append extension” PR #9732 – Scott and @mere-human have both confirmed it as well, and @mere-human is working on fixing it. (Based on their experiments, ENTER vs Alt+S/clicking-on-SAVE button have different results, which is obviously a bug.)

RC2 is available in:
https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/21228/notepad-v8-release-candidate-2

Let’s talk there.

@CodanRaigen21 said in Notepad++ v7.9.4 released:

for braces in JSON

Not for JSON specifically, it’s all or nothing:

Settings => Preferences => Auto-Completion => Auto-indent

Cheers.
