Do I it wrong?

You must have done it wrong, because the SaveSession/LoadSession feature works exactly as designed.

Please note that Save Session only saves real files. Files that are unnamed/unsaved (the “new 1” and similar tabs) are not saved in the session file.

Watch this video to see it in action, including seeing that the unsaved/unnamed file is not saved as part of the session:

@laurie-stearn ,

This is essential equivalent to this recent post, where I explained one of the sequences that was in that SU discussion.

@jim-birch said in [Feature request] Capacity to copy Summary info:

to be able to copy all or part of the information on the summary page

That would be great, although not for the reasons you say (for which Peter has already given you solutions).

If you want to attempt to influence Notepad++ future direction on this, you can make an official feature request, details on doing so are found HERE.

@James-Trowbridge said in Replace a CRLF with a space in Notpad++:

but I cannot figure out what to put in the “Replace with:” field to replace the CRLF with a space (in other words NOTHING).

Your first mistake is to call a space NOTHING. It is a character just like ALL other characters. To be returned it must be in the “Replace With” field. Just hit the “space bar” once and you get the space character, try that.

@PeterJones Thank you again for your suggestion, but it’s a fastidious way. Meanwhile a better solution, I use small stickers (Post-It) on tabs. It’s quick and easy to change.

@James-Trowbridge ,

Personally, I have always used the ancient Windows OS feature charmap.exe for accessing special characters – I have it saved in my Notepad++ Run menu with a keyboard shortcut to make it easy to access from Notepad++ … once it pops up, I choose “Group By: Unicode Subrange” and pick the category (“subrange”) of characters to choose from.

But I just tried @guy038’s Win+; (and I think his “or” was meant to be Win+. instead of a second semicolon-based shortcut, because that’s the shortcut that the Emojis and Symbols panel told me to use when I first invoked it by Win+;… but now it’s stopped showing me that) – I might have to try to remember this one, because it might be faster (and supported longer into the future) than the old charmap.

@jim-murray ,

Boy, wouldn’t that be nice. Too bad the Notepad++ Developer doesn’t have a budget and manpower of Microsoft-proportions helping him implement features. ;-)

BTW: HTML doesn’t have variables or functions. Are you really talking about the JavaScript embedded in an HTML document?

Addendum: one of the power users here is currently working on developing an LSP (“Language Server Protocol”) client plugin for Notepad++: LSP is what Visual Studio uses for linking to various “LSP servers” which can give it augmented right-click and code-completion features that go beyond the code-completion that Notepad++ provides by default. Assuming that an LSP server exists for the language of your choice (his examples show ones for Python, V, and D; there might be one for HTML/JS/ASP/PHP/etc or some subset thereof). So once that plugin is ready for prime time, and if an LSP server existed for the combo of web technologies that you are programming for, you might be able to get some or all of the feature set you’re looking for (eventually).

Additionally, there are a variety of HTML and web-related plugins already available for Notepad++, and while waiting for the full features of LSP, some of those might help make your development easier.

I must use the Installed Version of Notepad++, not the Portable Version as to work.

Lest other readers of this thread believe it, it is not true.

I made a Python script

Well, how exactly did you do this?

If you did Plugins > Python Script > New Script, and give your script a name and some lines of code, after you Save it for the first time you can go to Plugins > Python Script > Scripts and it will be shown there.

However, if you create a new .py file in the ...\plugins\Config\PythonScript\scripts\ folder in some other way, it will not show up in the menus until after you restart Notepad++.

Using the New Script method, there’s an automatic way for the plugin to know to modify the menus right away. Using any other method – how could it know? At startup of N++ (and thus the plugin), it scans the scripts folder to build the menus the initial time, so it finds all existing scripts at that time.

@achalk ,

Technically, it does still exist, but it is not maintained, and is only available for 32bit Notepad++ .

Of course it was stupid of me to even think that that could be not a Windows problem.

But what is peculiar is that this issue is somehow connected to the pointer color (or rather the scheme color).

I’m using Windows 10 and if it is Mouse Properties > Scheme > Windows Default (system scheme) then everything looks okay, but Windows Black (system scheme) gives me that “ugly” pointer that is shown above.

If not a zoom indicator in status bar, may be an indicator directly in the “View/Zoom” menu?
So as it is in XnView - see picture.

@Alexandre-Hagihara ,

The slashthrough U+0337 character you showed is a pretty fancy Unicode character, because it is a “combining”/“overlay” glyph, and some fonts have trouble with them. Your selected font may be different for normal mode vs Dark Mode, so maybe the font you have selected in Dark Mode has different Unicode coverage.

But also there is some other behind-the-scenes font-related magic that affects how Unicode is rendered, so even if your font is okay, there might be oddities. Try toggling Settings > Preferences > MISC > Use DirectWrite to see if it draws those characters better (more in the usermanual).

@Von-Galin ,

I second @Alan-Kilborn’s assessment that it’s a good idea.

If you put in the feature request (and if it doesn’t exist alredy, please do create the issue: I would offer to, but the developer honors feature requests from average users a lot higher than feature requests from those of us who hang out in the forums), you could suggest that the setting get saved as an attribute in the <mainView> and <subView> tags, like <mainView activeIndex="1" size="75%"> – that seems the natural place to store that setting.

@pnedev Thanks that appears to be it. I had an fopen in a library to which I was linking and it had no fclose. Seems to work now. Thank you very much for the catch!

@Von-Galin said in Show Search Results in Reverse:

Is it possible after performing a normal search to show the results (line numbers) in reverse, e.g. last lines first ?

No.

If I scroll down the results and work bottom-to-top, this doesn’t occur since the edits are below the “next” search result.

This is the solution, which you’ve already found.

@Loopbuilder ,

Without re-writing Notepad++, there is no way to change the speed or add caching.

And the “Please Read This Before Posting” links to the “Feature Requests and Bug Reports” FAQ, which explains that we in the forum have no power to make edits to the Notepad++ code.

@SimpleUser said in [Suggestion] Switching tabs using the mouse wheel:

Please develop this option.

It isn’t going to happen.
Just accept the behavior as it is.
