Below is a Python Script, which will change ALL occurrences of Damage to 50% of their value,:

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET def is_float(value): try: float(value) return True except: return False root = ET.XML(editor.getText()) for damage in root.findall(".//Damage"): if damage is not None and damage.text is not None and len(damage.text) > 0 and is_float(damage.text): value = float(damage.text.strip()) * 0.5 damage.text = "{:.6f}".format(value) editor.setText(ET.tostring(root))

@cisco779k

You have asked several regex data transformation questions on the forum. Give us all some “tanxs” by putting in the effort to learn why @astrosofista 's technique worked on your data, so that in the future you can maybe solve this type of problem (a fairly simple one) without coming here for help.

Some nice resources are found HERE.

Wow ok this looks good, thank you for the pointer to the post.

many tanxs (again) for your explanation!

@guy038 said in remove duplicate urls:

Am I missing something obvious ?

I made no assumptions about the list, I just wanted to keep the order that did exist in reverse. The OP had pivoted my solution suggesting it worked for them.

Terry

Thanks! That clears things up for me. I’m a bit richer now!

@guy038 said in Poor-man's "regex favorites" in Notepad++:

Your search regex|(*F)\Q REPL:Your replacement regex

Nice, one Guy!
I’d like the original (?#...) one better, because it is more readable (once one knows that it is a “comment”), except for the problem I noted with the closing parens.
Because of that limitation, |(*F)\Q is definitely better here.

I had a thought that it might be valuable to better state the precedence of options that I mentioned earlier. Let me give it a go, in the form of a pseudocode flowchart:

Count option rules: if "In selection" is ticked Count will be occurrences within the selected text (of a single, non-column-block) selection else if "Wrap around" is ticked Count will be occurrences within the entire document else if "Backward direction" is ticked Count will be occurrences from the start of document to the (main) caret else Count will be occurrences from the (main) caret to the end of the document

The use of “(main)” is important if you have multiple carets active at once (i.e., multi-editing enabled).
You only have one “main” caret, which is the most-recent one you created.

Hi @Terry-R

You’re right, my bad. I misread the whole thing. Hope that OP wasn’t fooled by my post.

@Ekopalypse said in Perl subroutine calltips - with PythonScript:

Just to make clear, this function is not really needed.

That worked!

@PeterJones

It was a wishlist item and my wishlist doesn’t trump pressing needs. Too often the perfect is the enemy of the good.

I don’t know what’s involved in ongoing Notepad++ development, and whether it would have been a, “hey, good idea, I’ll whip that together in 10 minutes and be done with it” or if it would be, “hmm, we’ll put together a committee to do a needs analysis prior to committing it to the product roadmap and tasking several developers to develop the unit tests and blah blah blah.”

Either way, my life is 90% workarounds, so I’m fine with it.

@Justin-Tolearn said in Updating version looses cached documents in the editor.:

I don’t know if this is a common behaviour I’ve not noticed before, but all documents that were in the previous version of the editor but NOT saved, were lost.
Is this normal?

It’s not common/normal, but we have heard instances of that before, so it’s not unheard-of, either.

As @Alan-Kilborn said, anyone who tries to upgrade any software package without saving any active work first is just asking for trouble.

@Ekopalypse Thanks. I removed and reinstalled XML Tools and that fixed it.

@JasonJDooley ,

You already asked that and I already answered.

If you need more help, reply in the other thread.

ok , ty for guidance.

Hmm…
Don’t know what I did , but now it works .

@PeterJones Thank you for your heads up.

@mattesh Does it work now for you?

@Belteshazzar-Diaz said in Where do feature suggestions go?:

suggest a “favorite fonts” feature

IMO developers aren’t going to spend cycles on such a feature.
Font is something you change probably once and then forget about it.
Devs want to spend time on “bigger wins”; feature improvements and bug fixes that will impact many users as they constantly use N++.

But, go ahead, by all means, you are free to request what you’d like to see. :-)

i fix but i disabled all
