A pythonscript solution could look like this

from Npp import notepad, editor, editor1, editor2, NOTIFICATION, SCINTILLANOTIFICATION, STATUSBARSECTION def check_zoom_level(): if notepad.isSingleView(): zoom_level = 'zoom level: {}'.format(editor.getZoom()) else: zoom_level = 'zoom level view0:{} view1:{}'.format(editor1.getZoom(), editor2.getZoom()) notepad.setStatusBar(STATUSBARSECTION.DOCTYPE, zoom_level) def on_zoom(args): check_zoom_level() def on_buffer_activated(args): check_zoom_level() def main(): notepad.callback(on_buffer_activated, [NOTIFICATION.BUFFERACTIVATED]) editor.callbackSync(on_zoom, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.ZOOM]) on_buffer_activated(None) main()

@massimo-la-terra ,

hai ragione me lo ha riscritto in inglese e non capivo grazie
= you’re right he rewrote it in english and i didn’t understand thanks

Sorry, I am not sure what you are trying to say there.
Scusa, non so cosa stai cercando di dire.

I will use deepl.com to translate my last post to Italian for you.

Avete copiato nel posto giusto per la nuova installazione? Vi siete ricordati di non avere Notepad+++ in funzione mentre facevate la copia? Avete guardato nel menu Macro? Se guardi %AppData%\Notepad++\shortcuts.xml sulla nuova macchina, contiene le macro.

Ci stai facendo fare un sacco di congetture. Cose come mostrarci le ?-menu Debug Info di entrambe le macchine, e dirci i percorsi dei file sorgente e di destinazione ci aiuterebbe - così come rispondere alle mie domande di cui sopra.

Until you can give us the information I requested in my last post, I cannot provide any more help.
Fino a quando non potrete fornirci le informazioni che ho richiesto nel mio ultimo post, non posso fornirvi altro aiuto.

@Ekopalypse said in How to replace only in rows with a special text?:

5000x5000(?=.*?projectID: 1234)

Thank you. That worked.

@Ahmed-Mujtaba said in Error Code2 ShellExecute-ERROR:

I get This error every Time.

You haven’t said whether you tested what @Meta-Chuh posted earlier
or if it is related to what the OP asked for? Can you post your debug-info from ? menu?

@Harry-Nelson

Worth noting N++ behavior is now just like all other Windows applications. It’ll add the extension of recognized file types but otherwise you need to do as @PeterJones suggests. I much prefer it this way … predictable and like other Windows applications.

Cheers.

@PeterJones FIND = (?-is)^.+~\h*(?=\d+km) I hope I got it right in the reply, Peter just this command resolves to, thank you very much. GL

Hi @daniel-lysk, @michael-vincent, @ekopalyse and All,

An other useful little trick :

Let’s imagine that our previous table has the size file values left justified, as below :

ACP5191 *PGM CBLLE 5120000 RELEASEID: ITI 19.045.004 06/12/15 14:12 ADS0130 *PGM CBLLE 3137536 VERSION 9.0.1 02/20/17 14:00 ADS0910 *PGM CBLLE 18124800 VERSION 10.1.5 02/11/20 00:38 GUY0000 *PGM CBLLE 123456789 RELEASEID: ITI 3.020.074 08/15/17 10:30

Now, in order to get the same values right justified, move the caret right before the left-justified numbers and note its column number C, in the status bar. Then, use the number C-1 in the regex S/R, below :

SEARCH ^.{42}\K(\d+)(\x20+)(?=\x20)

REPLACE \2\1

Click on the Replace All button

And… voila ! Even, if you have 1,000,000 records, it would have been the same !

ACP5191 *PGM CBLLE 5120000 RELEASEID: ITI 19.045.004 06/12/15 14:12 ADS0130 *PGM CBLLE 3137536 VERSION 9.0.1 02/20/17 14:00 ADS0910 *PGM CBLLE 18124800 VERSION 10.1.5 02/11/20 00:38 GUY0000 *PGM CBLLE 123456789 RELEASEID: ITI 3.020.074 08/15/17 10:30

Note that the regex S/R, below, does the opposite. It left-justifies the size files. So you get, again, the original file !

SEARCH ^.{42}\K(\x20+)(\d+)(?=\x20)

REPLACE \2\1

Cheers,

Here’s a new feature request ticket
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/8568

It turns out this has been requested several times before dating back to 2016. Interestingly, @donho (I think he’s one of the devs?) stated in an old ticket https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pull/2243 that this was already implemented, and the ticket was closed. I don’t know if this was supposed to be implemented back then and got removed for some reason (or he made a mistake?), but there have been more tickets since then requesting the same thing.

@Guus-Ellenkamp

Notepad++ is developed using the Win32 api and is solely dependent on it. A native Linux version would require a nearly complete rewrite of the application…and you’d have to be crazy to want to do that.

@Alan-Kilborn

May be you are not so wrong after all, and the key word in the manual is could be “periodically”, which is not very precise.
What does it mean exactly? (did not find what is the delay between 2 checks, neither where it can be configured)

Best regards.
Olivier.

@Globalcom-Santo

What makes you think that it isn’t macro-recordable?

@Jon-Peterson

Verify this setting:

@Haqim-Zuhari said in My 2 cents about Notepad++ (i really2 love notepad++):

Change this icon from workspace to a better one or remove it

This topic has already been asked by me, and the author of Notepad ++ does not want to delete these curved icons))

That was extensive. Thank you. For real.

Now, turns out Npp was right and notepad and github are wrong.
That’s what I get for copy and pasting code from random sites.

Glad it was sorted. Saves me a bunch of time.

@Frank-Posa ,

Since v7.8.7, even the new-style applies an extension based on the selected file type in the save/save-as dialog. If you type no extension, it will take the first extension from the Save as type box:
d4585943-5e2b-4801-9c57-a82459467aef-image.png

Knowing that typing your own extension (like blah.ext) will override the auto-extension, I tried a trick of typing blah. to try to convince it to use an empty extension: as shown in the screenshot above, it still appended .txt to the filename, making it blah..txt, which isn’t what I wanted. However, if you then change Save as type to All types (*.*), and don’t type an extension, it will save the file with no extension.
bd742425-f9dc-495f-b454-321fa4f5af73-image.png
It’s a little extra work, but that will enable you to save a file with no extension. (Alternately, change your workflow slightly: create the file in Windows Explorer with no extension, then right click and open-with Notepad++ or drag the file into the open Notepad++.)

Unfortunately, we’re finding that no matter how the save-options are defined, someone will think that NPP has done it completely wrong and not given the option they want.

@Hassan-Iqbal

the second part sounds like a feature request.

@SlamJammington

My first guess is that you use notepad++ from the windows store, could this be? If so, this is NOT the official application which is available from here.

If this is not the case, may I ask you to explain in detail what you are doing? Step by step so that one can replicate what is happening.

In addition, please post the debug-info from the ? menu.

@Best-Sellers

Your steps don’t really “repro” all that well.

Click on New

What does this mean?
Toolbar button for new document?:

cf4d7b55-b723-4bfe-a740-99b251424448-image.png

That is the only thing on the UI (without doing more actions that you haven’t described) that would give a “New” behavior.

Right Click on the new sheet and click on Save As

If I right click on the new “sheet” I get no option to Save As:

69ad2e1c-ebd7-4c9e-afbc-eee4a554c0c1-image.png

However, if I right-click on the tab of the sheet (but you didn’t say that, so I’m confused) I get that option:

f595a5ab-6a35-45bc-8a03-b67b73aa768c-image.png

But choosing it I get no crash, I get:

2cbbb86d-c36d-470a-a5c4-f9bfc4a48c6f-image.png

And then continuing on to save the file I still get no crash, thus to:

Observe that Notepad++ app crashes.

I say “I can’t reproduce”.

I’m doing all this on N++ 7.8.8.
Does it make sense that you should have also told us what version you are using?

At this point I have to point you HERE.

@PeterJones Sorry, I hit the link and … sorry again.
