    the number of file & find history is more than 70

    Isn’t this achievable with regular N++?

    less binary size

    Can’t imagine why this could possibly be important

    TextFX is sort of deprecated, and continuing to give answers that use it is probably not the best idea (for future readers of these threads/posts). Especially when other viable options exist, and especially when the same things can be done inside Notepad++ (meaning no plugin needed).

    With the Explorer plugin I’m using, right-click context menu shows:

    New File... New Folder... Find in Files... ---- Standard Menu > NppExec Script(s) > Open Command Window Here --- Add to 'Favorites'... Full File Path(s) to Clipboard File Name(s) to Clipboard --- Cut Copy --- Create Shortcut Delete --- Properties

    Using the “Standard Menu” expanding menu item, I get pretty much all the other stuff as if I just do a right-click context menu in the Windows Explorer app. This includes Tortoise Git which I have installed so I get “Git integration” with N++.

    Have a look.

    Cheers.

    Sorted thanks, found the appropriate setting and duly changed inactive text to black, which is fine.

    P.S: 3 minute deadline on editing?!

    Actually, to be fair, some of the PR shown in the OP’s original link are closed without being merged into master sources, but the majority of those shown in the view presented by that link were actually merged.

    @Lee-Allen

    It’s currently a problem with Notepad++ (7.8.4 and earlier) as you’ve discovered.

    It appears there is a change coming in the next release which will prevent this from happening; details.

    But meanwhile, left-click and drag your taskbar from the bottom (presumably) of screen to one of its sides. This should allow you to grab the Find window with the mouse and move it back more central. Then you can put the taskbar back to being along the bottom.

    Alternately, in the Notepad++ main window, press ctrl+f then hold the Alt key and tap and release the spacebar. This will popup a menu with a “move” option showing. Choose that move option and then use the arrow up key to bring the Find window back above taskbar level. Press Enter to release the Find window from “move mode”.

    So, you get into this situation by moving the Find window (with the mouse) really “low” on the screen, and letting it go when most of it is offscreen and the part that remains is completely behind (but still showing through) the taskbar. Try to avoid doing this. :-)

    Actuually, looking deeper at the code change on github mentioned above (actually by running the executable provided with that change), I see that nothing about it will prevent you from “losing” the Find window again in this same way. :-(

    However, it appears that the NEXT ctrl+f press will bring the Find window back to a location where you can again work with it, instead of having to resort to “tricks/workarounds” to do so. :-) So in the future if it gets “lost”, just press ctrl+f and it should appear again.

    @wS-Стас said in c++ syntax for all files:

    And there are times when the highlighting does not work at all and in order for it to work, you need to restart the program or close the file and open it again.

    That is actually one thing I would expect if a lexer is used which is not written for that kind of file.
    I never experienced this if the correct lexer for the current file did the highlighting.

    In order to make this work, that every programming language file, as far as notepad++ knows it,
    displays its comment in the same color and font you have to go through each defined language
    and reconfigure there comment line settings.

    Another alternative might be to explicitly mark those lines like here

    Might be possible by recording a macro - didn’t try it.

    Or using a scripting language like @PeterJones mentioned.

    One possible scenario, you built a debug version instead of a release version.

    @Raul-A-Ocasio-Gonzalez said in Delete everything after a value.:

    Notepad++ has the option to reverse a search

    What does that even mean?

    If I’m doing a regular expression search mode search, my Backward direction checkbox is disabled. Clearly earlier you were talking about a regex search. Hmmm.

    @aajez

    I can’t tell for certain because your screenshot is small and doesn’t reveal all, but…

    It appears your search expression may match complete lines. If this is true, you can copy the matches with the following technique:

    Switch to the Mark tab of the Find window. Tick the Bookmark line option. Probably also tick the Wrap around option. Press the Mark All button. All of your matches will be highlighted in red, and a bookmark symbol will appear between the line numbers and the text of the lines that hit. Go to the Search menu, Bookmark submenu, and choose from that Copy Bookmarked Lines

    In the event that your search expression does not match entire lines, there are some more involved techniques for copying the text, but I’ll leave that alone for now, unless we hear back that that’s really what you need to do. Also, it appears there is an open issue for copying red-marked, without using the bookmarking method; see “Marked text needs to be copyable”.

    Cool. Thank you for the update.
    I tried to search this forum to prevent any duplicative posts but didn’t find it here.
    Looking forward to seeing it fixed but it is not critical.

    it was in focus i just did not use the keyboard to cycle trough options, i could no get the “artifact” using the mouse,and you are correct ,once you get to the “artifact” you can cycle it with “space bar” so not useless after all :D
