I do not want to permanently highlight them

I think @Ekopalypse 's suggested method is actually better than Smart Highlighting for this purpose. And…it isn’t really permanent, you can clear it later.

Plus you can make it really fast to implement and clear by using keyboard combinations rather than mousing through the menus.

And the killer feature part: Even if Smart Highlighting did what you wanted, you couldn’t quickly navigate to far apart versions of the duplicate text sections, you’d have to visually look for them. With Eko’s method, and he pointed this out, you can quickly jump to the next occurrence, even if very far away from the original.

I’m not a developer on Notepad++, but I really don’t see Smart Highlighting being changed to cross line-boundaries.

Hi, All,

I’ve just banned that account, permanently

Are there moderators on this project?
Such users must be banned for life!

Probably not extending that prompt. But how about:

Say no to the prompt - I don’t want to lose my changes Plugins => Compare => Diff since last Save Make edits / merges directly in Notepad++ Bob’s your uncle.

Cheers.

@Сергей-Друзь said in Not organized file structure in a folder! 📂:

Why isn’t there a folder 📁 for each plugin

Because the plugin authors chose not to use their own folder. Plenty of plugins (like PythonScript, NppFTP, and PreviewHTML) do use subfolders of the %AppData%\Notepad++\plugins\config folder; but there are also others (NppExec, MarkdownViewer++) that don’t.

You would have to request an update from every individual plugin that doesn’t use its own sub-folder to get that to change. Good luck with that.

This may be gaining some traction; see recent activity here.

@Eduard-castany said in Send File i-Mail:

to do an action in a Files Menu

In the Files menu? No.

However, you can add something to the Run menu. If i-mail is some application found at c:\path\to\i-mail.exe, and you could send a file to i-mail by running c:\path\to\i-mail.exe --attach "d:\path\to\file", then

Close all instances of Notepad++ and start one instance

File > Open %AppData%\shortcuts.xml

In the <UserDefinedCommands> section, add

<Command name="send via i-mail" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0">"c:\path\to\i-mail.exe" --attach "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"</Command>

Save and close shortcuts.xml

Exit Notepad++ and reload

Run > send via i-mail should now work

Of course, if it’s a different path, or need more or less arguments, you need to customize that example. Basically, you need to know the full command-line command to attach a file to i-mail, then you put that as the ___ in the <Command ...>___</Command>, using $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH) it the place of the filename; and if there’s a possibility of spaces in the path, put quotes around it.

@PeterJones Thank you for letting me know. As I mentioned, this was so others searching for the topic would know that an update was available already.

@PeterJones [Forenote: Sorry for the late reply. This will be my usual habit here, though, because I had many things to do in some other places - Well, those sorts of things. Also, I had some problem with composing this reply, kinda…]

[1] Least likely to be updated? Hmm, that is sad, but for some reasons, I can’t really complain about it.
⠀⠀⠀For the open issues and or request not getting traction, yeah, that does sound very unfortunate… Although, I am a bit curious on why. I would like to know if there’s a problem or something regarding UDL development, but this isn’t necessary for me to know, so I could pass on this one.

[2] Hoh~? I’m not stuck?

[3] Hmm, this is really interesting. Definitely gunna check those out. Thank you.

[4] Write a new lexer, hum, definitely not doing it anytime “soon”… Beg or bribe to write a new lexer doesn’t sound fun… Contract or hire might be overboard for my project(?)… Requesting code changes sounds reasonable, but I’m not sure on wha- wait… Maybe I need to request the change/extra option of separators from the puny spaces to something else and the inclusion of whitespaces identifier (Since whitespaces are ignored) on a specific section. Yeah… That might work…
⠀⠀⠀Thinking about it, the change shouldn’t be to remove space as a separator or anything altogether but to add an extra option on or for all sections. A checkbox that allows an advanced user to use the advanced feature, such as this or something else - heck, regex would be super great. And then- erm… Nah.
⠀⠀⠀Realistically, that wouldn’t happen. So eh, let’s just cut it there for now. I am a bit tired for it.

⠀⠀⠀Anyhow, great reply. +1

@DeLiXx said in Remove "yes, for all", "no, for all" when not needed:

A good strategy would be to showcase the new feature with the greyed out buttons in a single major version as it’s being done now and hide it as suggested for all following releases.

I respectfully disagree that that is a good strategy.

Works for me.

Thanks,

John

@Alan-Kilborn said in [Feature Request] Undo for Auto-Insert: tags and parentheses:

Is this any textual change? Or is it truly any change?

In the context of any change Notepad++ did that the user did not specifically do themselves. I wont say this is a hard rule though.

@PeterJones Thank you very much, I will try tomorrow

@Qasim-Ijaz

as you reference 7.4 I assume you are using this version as well,
so the obvious question would be why you don’t update to a newer
version which has fixed this?

@GowaP

You can use my AutoCodepage plugin for that purpose, available via Plugins Admin.

Interesting, thanks for the investigastion. From my experience it feels like something with getting the focus back to the file. as if “Ctrl+R” is leading to have the focus on the current file lost, after the reload it is regained. When the focus is regained, the check for modification kicks in and if the file was modified in the mean time, it asks if the file should be reloaded. If the focus is lost, maybe it is possible to reload with Ctrl+R without having the focus lost?

Reading your posting reminded me on the first posting in this thread and the sidenote: since “Monitoring tail -f” doesn’t work as I expect it.

The “eye-button” also known as since “Monitoring tail -f” would solve this issue, if it worked as I’d expect it. I experience the same as here: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/4955

Sorry, I was mistaking the Session Manager plugin with the NPP Favorites plugin, which automatically shows up on the right-hand side. This also explains why my sessions were all missing.

Thanks for the help.

You could install the XML Tools plugin and use its XSLT Transformation feature.

Open Plugins Admin and install XML Tools plugin. After Notepad++ has been restarted paste the XSLT code from below to an empty tab and save it for example as ChangeVisible.xsl. Open the XML file you want to process. Go to (menu) Plugins -> XML Tools -> XSLT Transformation. In the dialog popping up click on the ellipsis button and in the file selector dialog popping up select the XSL file you created in step 2. In the options field of the dialog type UPCid='1234'. Click the Transform button. A new document will be opened with your changes applied. Save it to the original file.

To change the value of the IsVisible node of more than one Item nodes, repeat steps 6 to 8.

The XSLT code. Please note: In line 19 (<xsl:template match="/RootNode/Item/IsVisible">) you have to provide the complete path to the IsVisible XML node, starting from the document’s root node.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:transform version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes" /> <xsl:param name="UPCid"/> <xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/RootNode/Item/IsVisible"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="../@UPC=$UPCid"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:text>False</xsl:text> </xsl:copy> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:copy> <xsl:copy-of select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:transform>

In other words, it’s known about. Note that last one is the official issue-tracker; should be fixed in the next version released (ie, whatever comes after v7.8.1)

Notepad +++ opens any text files, and the * .json extension is a text format))
Install the JSTool plugin for formatting * .JSON files, and it will become much more convenient to work with this format!
