Take your pick of case-change options:

Don’t be surprised if none of them 100% ever meet your exact need (for your data).

If you are addicted to the right-click way of doing it, you can customize that menu to add the ones you use most; read about how to do that HERE.

that is really useful information which you shared , i was also facing the same problem, thanks mate!!!

@gibberishbc

the official documentation is here and no, a ^ does not mean it has to be the beginning of a line. If you think this has to do with regex, then no, UDL doesn’t support regex yet.

The ultimate truth is in the source.

@PeterJones
Ok, whatever it is, thanks, you are very helpful.
My concern was just personal taste when seeing the text in Notepad++.

@Michael-Vincent said in AutoCompletion in Dark Mode:

setElementColour

This function does not appear to be a part of PythonScript2.
I’m not sure why this would be, because PythonScript3 is still considered “beta”…it doesn’t make sense that any advancements wouldn’t be backported, until such time as PS3 is really released and PS2 can be sunsetted.

The builtin function parser is just a simple regex matcher that expects to see a { after every parameter list. Your source file would have to implement test() for it to appear on the list.

The smart detection you’re expecting can be provided by a tag parser. One of these plugins may help:

@John-Russell ,

Notepad++ is doing its best in syntax highlighting the invalid XML you are feeding it.

I confirmed with the Hive Mind that XML comments (<!-- ... -->) are not allowed inside the open tag (<GameData ... >)
b3b619ac-c834-464f-b02d-920bd0e11487-image.png
– specifically, that first match is quoting from this SO answer, which links to another one

For example:

6c647d96-da16-4a1a-8149-c5577c5c7191-image.png

So the strange highlighting successfully told you that you were doing something wrong. It’s probably time for you to go study XML some more, to better understand the rules for the language. (And this Forum is not the right place for generic XML learning/questions)

@coleg55 said in Can not see images when opening in browser:

I will right click that alt portion and will come to a page that says my file does not exist

In addition to what has been said by Peter and Terry, you also may not have included the full path to that picture, hence, as the document only looks in it’s current directory and if it’s not there, it doesn’t exist, but as the others have stated, that’s a problem of your HTML coding, it has nothing to do with Notepad++.

@alan-kilborn

Somebody helped me set up the new pc (it’s an old fashioned tower). He downloaded apps from a list I made. I don’t know exactly where or how he did it. The ‘weird icons’ were there and I doubt he fiddled around with those settings. I’m sure he accepted all the default suggestions on first install.

Thank you for your comments. Thank you all for speedy replies! I appreciate it. If I need more help I will try to be specific and not vague. :-)

@peterjones said in Find and Replace:

you might want to change to [^,\r\n]* for this token to avoid grabbing newlines as well

Not sure what the issue is. For this file type the template and header rows do not end with a comma. The first field doesn’t start with a comma but that seems to be ok as it sees it correctly as a tag and stops at the first comma. So far, these rows also always end with a comma.

If two lines where like this and did not end in a comma and ended with a tag:

DFO_129,S9_Filters,Default,XV_195401,DFO_129 CD_132,S9_Filters,Default,XV_195401,CD_132

I could maybe endup with this?

DFO_129CD_132

I think I’m ok, it seems to work and all the rows with tags end with a comma and if they did not the result would jump out at me, maybe.

Is there any easy way to stop at the comma but not include it? Seen some examples using Find and Replace to remove an end character but not just in the find expression for marking.

@michael-vincent Thanks, I got response from GitHub

Great - @pnedev is a very responsive developer, pretty sure there’d be a fix soon, if not one already (which I seems like there was).

Cheers,

@hudson4351 ,

Or alternately, column select, click-and-hold on the upper left b, then drag so the cursor is two spaces after the first bar and then drop: it will be in the new location

@patrick-o-beirne said in How to copy as extended, eg CRLF to \r\n:

I want text with the extended notation which I can edit.

I’ve found a method for this, with 8.4.2 software, but it is definitely not specific to this version (just documenting which version I used):

select some multi-line data press Ctrl+f to bring up the Find window select a Search mode of Normal run a Find All in Current Document search

Note that the Find what field now (post-search) contains text in “extended notation”, which may be copied elsewhere and edited. Note also that the Search mode has been changed to Extended.

Example:

Start with this text:

456 abc 123 def

Select text as follows:

1fc0c11f-dffc-4944-845f-85af99617ead-image.png

Press Ctrl+f. Set up this search (important – don’t change what was auto-populated into Find what):

2fc7996e-d8a4-4428-aaec-8ce73b77c587-image.png

Press the Find All in Current Document button and see how the Find what box content has changed:

74f0195b-417c-4126-8de6-f72340aa9e89-image.png

The Find what box data can now be copied elsewhere and edited, as it is now abc\r\n123\r\n.

Note also that the Search mode has been changed to Extended.

BUG:

Repeat the experiment, but this time change the Search mode to Regular expression and change one character in the Find what data to a . before running the Find All in Current Document search:

8f8d7cfe-846b-4e4a-9de1-b6e27199cfb8-image.png

The result of the search: no matches.

45a83617-4866-408a-a792-b86a8a5db8d6-image.png

There should be 1 match. :-(

This happens because Notepad++ changes my search from a Regular expression search to an Extended search, before the search happens. :-(

For more info, see https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11847.

Above code works perfectly 😁 Thank You 👍

@peterjones if it’s interesting, I finally hunted down the relevant UltraEdit wiki page as well as a screenshot of it being used

Note that although the OP in this thread has used the term “bookmark”, what is being discussed has nothing to to with Notepad++ bookmarks.

What the OP means is more tied to the Notepad++ Smart Highlighting feature – the feature that, if you double-click a word, Notepad++ highlights in light-green coloring all of the matches in the text of the document.

OP would like location in the doc of such matches to be highlighted as a small rectangle on the vertical scrollbar of the document.

This is similar to other some existing requests, to do same type of thing when a true search is run, e.g., a Find Next or a Find All in Current Document.

@terry-r ,
I agree with your analogy, but as the OP has “shown” what he starts and wants to end with, Alan’s answer is germane to the question at hand, whilst your’s evokes a new creature feature. :-)

@andi-kiissel said in How to jump to previous active tab/file with PytonScript?:

notepad.activateIndex(view, index)

You need to put this together with notepad.getFiles() as it is an iterable that returns all of the necessary information. See the help for that function and you’ll see what I mean.

Highlight and press space right ? is that not what your looking for?
