    @Warren60
    I’ve been doing a bit of research on old posts here and found one that can easily line up the columns for you. Look at
    https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/14717/column-aligning-jagged-data/5

    So I’d firstly use the comma to replace that with a number of spaces say about 10 or so. The actual number would depend on the maximum size of your number range used. You have 27 characters in ExperiencePointsForLevel[]= alone. Then you just need to add the length of the largest number to be assigned inside the [] and also the one after the = sign. Say you have 5 and 7 respectively, then you’d have 39 characters as the maximum length. You then need to figure out how far apart would the columns be, would it be say 40 (1 space minimum) or 45 which gives 6 spaces minimum. Let’s go with 6. So 45 less 29 (27 +1+1 minimums) give 17, so replace , with 17 spaces (not actually spaces in my example).

    Once that has been achieved use the 3rd regex in the link above
    ^(.{12}) +
    but replace 12 with 45, being the number we picked above. Replace all and that will align the 2nd column. Then replace 35 with 90 and repeat the replace all. Again change 70 with 135 and… you get the idea.

    Thanks for you reply.

    The “Update Notepad++” option pops up “No update is available”.

    Here’s the debug info:

    Notepad++ v7.6 (32-bit)

    N++ updates are not immediately available via the updater feature. Just after some time and if no major issues arise. This is a decision of donho, when he activates the deployment of a new version.

    @Jaroslav-Daníček ,

    And the reason why Shift+DownArrow works but Shift+END does not: if you use Shift+END, you are just selecting to the end of the current line, so the selection doesn’t contain any of the collapsed data (none of the data is before the end of the current line, after all). Using Shift+DownArrow, you are selecting from your current location to the beginning of the next visible line; since the next visible line is beyond the end of the collapsed data, your selection includes all the collapsed data.

    @Brian-L

    for the first question:
    jump to first tab, second tab, etc. yes
    ctrl + numpad 1
    ctrl + numpad 2 and so on
    but jump to last is currently not a built in feature

    you’ll find a modifiable list of all built in keyboard shortcuts that currently exist for tabs if you go to:
    settings > shortcut mapper > main menu
    and then enter the word TAB into the search filter at the bottom

    i didn’t find a built in feature for moving tabs to the first/last position, pin tabs as first/last tab or keeping/duplicating style tokens across multiple tabs.
    if you just want to copy paste a tokenized word/section after the style has been set, currently you have to set the style again for one of the instances of this word/section after pasting, or it will be displayed with the default font settings
    maybe someone else has experience with tab related plugins or style token workarounds?

    @Lothar-Bongartz ,

    I cannot replicate your results. If I take the list that you posted (noticing there are multiple instances of _header and _title that alternate), and I run Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines Lexicographically Ascending, then I get

    CDSRATINGWIDGET689 CDSROWLOGO689 CDSSCROLLINGRAVE CDSWIDEXCLOGO CDSWIDWRL Hangout SkypeButton SkypeButton_paraElement _bol _bom _bor _contact _cover _cover _cover _cover1 _cover2 _doci _doci _email _fbc _fbc _fbd _fbd _fbl _fbls _fbm _fbor _fli _fli _go _go _good _good _grav _header _header _header _header _header _header_100 _icons _iconsep _imed _info_open _ins _ins _link _link _link _map _map_dir _mapw _menu _mm _mm _pan _panh _panh _phone _photo _pin _pin _pr _print _purl _qr1 _qr1 _qr1 _qr2 _qr2 _qrc _reviews _slide _slids _soc _space _title _title _title _title _traf _trip _trip _tumblr _tumblr _tweets _tweets _twid _twid _update _url _view _wea _weads _weat _weather _wel _wmenu _yelp _youl _your addc audioOff audioOn currencies google_translate_element google_translate_element_100 gplus modesel-button modesel-menu pApprec pHeader pLink pList pPage pPlacePic pQRCode pRatings pcover pcover1 pcover2 pfbd pgood pmap ptwid q viewsel

    … showing that now, all the underscore words are also properly sorted, with the multiple _headers all adjacent, as they should be.

    As Scott asked, what’s your ? > Debug Info ? Mine is

    We don’t have awards around here, but if we did you’d get one for rolling up your sleeves, using the resources available to you you, finding your own solution, and posting a follow up with the solution. Nice job.

    @Unknow0059
    it can be used when programming. For example I have a small python program, a line can be indented with respect to the one above (in much the same way as a for loop for example has indented code within it). This ‘column’ can then be used to hide that indented code.

    If you don’t want it, consider
    Preferences - Editing - Folder Margin Style and select “None”. That removes it for me.
