There are open issues on this: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/215 https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/2535 https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/1927 , but daylight saving seems to be a new aspect.

I’ve only noticed it with N++, but of course, that’s not to say it isn’t an MS issue. I am still looking up other occurrences and trying to replicate the issue elsewhere. So far though, only that one area of N++ does it.

@Edmond-Mullins Note pad starer is what? If it is notepad++, then it would be nice if you could let us know what the message is otherwise we have to guess and guessing mostly doesn’t work in such cases. Cheers Claudia

Never mind, I found another thread where people had the same problems, and was able to fix it by deleting the Notepad++ directory from my Roaming profile.

@John-Pilge Nice find - so have to toggle NppCalcs active state. Standard shortcut is CTRL+SHIFT+C. Cheers Claudia

@Claudia-Frank Thanks. Sorted.

@Claudia-Frank Thank you for confirming.

@Chrissy-Morrison-Graham How did you record the macro? Can you post what is inside shortcuts.xml file? (Which is either in you installation directory or under %APPDATA%\notepad++) Cheers Claudia

Do you mean like this? http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/Keyboard_And_Mouse_Shortcuts

@Barry-Karas Font can be changed globally or per language under Settings->Style Configuration Cheers Claudia

@Ru-Esteban sorry, but your post doesn’t make sense. You do not open npp with MS Edge, you open the script. So what exactly are you doing? Step by step. Cheers Claudia

@Robert-Hemingway dropdown box with suitable words, as you type therefore you need to provide an API file with the same name as your UDL is. See plugins\APIs directory for examples. The keywords within udl are just for syntax coloring. Also what is the understanding behind “instre1” “type1” …“type4” in the langs.xml file <Keywords name= ? That is basically a link to the stylers.xml to provide the information which style should be used for which keyword group. Please note, that not every language supports the same amount of keyword groups and even not the same keyword group link names. Cheers Claudia

@Robert-Shiffman said: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caPbaB219bQ The video you referenced is actually pretty good as far as the pure mechanics of setting it up go. You are missing a $ in front of (FULL_CURRENT_PATH) in your post; it should be $(FULL_CURRENT_PATH). That part is the “magic” which allows you NOT to have to change anything to run different .pl files that you edit with Notepad++, contrary to what you said about “change the command each time…”. You can find the text of the existing commands of the Run menu in the shortcuts.xml file. It’s location can vary depending upon your Notepad++ install; easiest way to find it the first time is probably a search for it.

@RedstoneFuture-TV and to be honest, it is only half the truth as you need to wrap this all in a plugin. But may I ask you why there is a need to have more than 8 different keyword group styles? Does this really makes sense? Cheers Claudia

@Frank-Wang not the newest infos but a good starting point. http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/Plugin_Development#How_to_develop_a_plugin In addition, check some of the other plugins code to learn. Most of them are open source on github and sourceforge. Cheers Claudia
