@MrE819 said in Notepad++ Convert to MSI:

Can I use the tools that come with Windows to convert it into an msi installation package

You can use the Windows Installer tool msiexec.exe to control the installation of an MSI package.

See this as a bug report

See the FAQ for how to file a real bug report.
However, I’m sure this is an already-known issue.

Hello @jeff-Michaels, @alan-kilborn, @dinkumoil and All,

Congratulations to brilliantly achieve your goal from the link provided by @alan-kilborn ;-)) You seem to be a regex’s guru, too !

Regarding your solution, I suppose that the end should be \r\n ( instead of \r\t )

Now, I think that you can simplify your regex as :

(?xs-i) <pg \x20 (?: (?! </pg> ) . )*? BAR .*? BREAK .*? </pg> \R # Delete any <pg> section containing BAR and BREAK

Indeed, no need to be sure that the string </pg> does not occur between the words BAR and BREAK and between BREAK and </pg>. Once you get the good <pg...> block, with the negative look-ahead, the lazy quantifiers, coming next, forces the correct detection of that block !

You may use \R as is stands for any kind of line-break ( \r\n, \n and \r )

Note that I use the Free-spacing mode ( (?x... ) which allows to separate the main parts of the regex and allows comments after the # char

Best Regards,

@pinuzzu99 said in add simple table (or cell spacing):

is put the cursor at the top left of the column. then with Shift+ALT click on the bottom right of the column to select it in one go.

Yes, this works, but I’d say it isn’t a common usage among Notepad++ users.

It is so uncommon that it isn’t mentioned here (maybe it should be?):

Probably “Hold Alt while left-click dragging” is the way most users would select your S02 block, if they’re going to involve the mouse in the selection action.

@Siim-Petser
see, there really is a problem. not bsing. but i have 0 positive feelings with this place here. so. its just… oh. maybe im just trolling. whatever. there is a problem. oh. ok. i try to stay away from here. its hard. crap. ban me freely. pls.

@Terry-R

The sole reason to come here in this forum was actually this issue.
I guess it is something about some MS standard way to treat it? I’m too ignorant to discuss this.
But, if there is a way to address this, make the scroll bar click+hold to ignore mouse’s left right
movement - it would actually be a good improvement.

Thing is, smoothly scrolling through 2-3 pages using scrollbar (not mouse wheel or pgup/down) - the need for this is so unique for a coding editor. My case, that is. Well, there are other cases/apps and it is solved differently.
(for example musical notation software - with their must have “navigator” thingy)

Interestingly, I can reproduce this in my daily-use N++ v8.5, even with “short” lines.

However, if I extract fresh portable versions (for any of 8.4.9, 8.5, 8.5.1), I cannot reproduce it with those.

@Johan-Taunajik said in UDL or Language of “Registry”:

It has 8 digits after dword: then is has to show green.
“HeapDeCommitFreeBlockThreshold”=dword:0002215C
If it hasn’t 8 digits after dword:, it has to show orange.
“HeapDeCommitFreeBlockThreshold”=dword:0002215

Afaik you can’t do this natively with UDL, but by installing the EnhanceAnyLexer plugin, caveat, I’m the author, you might get what you want.
Install the plugin via the plugin admin, open a registry file and run Plugins->EnhanceAnyLexer->Enhance current language.
The configuration file will open and replace the registry block with something like this:

[registry] 0x7fff00 = (?<=dword:)[[:xdigit:]]{8}(?=[^[:xdigit:]]|$) 0x009BFF = (?<=dword:)[[:xdigit:]]{1,7}(?=[^[:xdigit:]]|$) ; Note: Style 4 (HEX DIGIT) must be removed here or excluded_styles must be commented out completely. excluded_styles = 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

Maybe THIS?

That did it!

Thanks again,
Rich

I found what the problem is:

AppXSVC needs to be running… but why? It is needed to install the new shell menu “Edit with notepad++” as it comes in a *msix package but I’m not installing it, so there should be no reason for the main exe to be requesting AppXSVC to be running despite it isn’t needed anymore.

Am I misunderstanding something?

@Jeb-Swartzentruber said in Windows 10 taskbar grouping:

Greetings. I switched to Windows 10 about a month or so ago and I noticed many apps that I “pin to the taskbar” do not open next to the icon, but instead at the far right of the taskbar. I think this is a new setting, because Firefox used to do the same thing until a recent update. This only happens when “Combine when taskbar is full” is selected. Thank you for a great product!

Yes, it is a great product.

@Mark-Olson Thank you very much. it solved my problem!

oh yes, it work fine.
thank you for reply

Regards

@Ken-Rich you can check out this video tutorial that I made for DSpellCheck. Hope it helps.

The tab named ‘Comment & Number’ does not show this sentence:

Sorry, I assumed that “did you try changing the Styler for numbers” would lead you to the “Number Style” section to click on the Stylers button.

I did not tried to change anything else, I changed directly what you recommended.

For the first problem – the main text showing up inverted – that makes sense. But when you had a problem with numbers, I would have hoped that you would learn from the first lesson and generalize. I cannot possibly anticipate every problem you might have, and, as my time in this forum is just on a volunteer basis, I cannot spend all my time exploring every possible problem someone might have implementing my advice.

Which Styler button are you referring to: the one in ‘Number style’ ?

Yes.

@Ganesh-Venkat

Update: there is already an existing feature request #8300 that was requested in May 2020, and the developers haven’t implemented it yet. You can feel free to upvote that request at the link I provided, but again, I am doubtful that anything will ever come of it.

@TencentSZ

When you post about a problem, you should always start out with stating what version you are using. Also, if you had posted a screenshot rather than just describing the problem, we’d have gotten you to a solution faster.

Just some points to remember for next time. :-)
