      @cfroehle Thank you for the solution to a problem that has made Notepad++ unusable for me. The delay caused by the autocomplete feature has been an intermittent pain for YEARS. I am guessing that this feature gets reenabled upon some action such as an update but I am not sure.

      Thanks again.

      Remove four specific lines in Notepad++ without delete similar lines

      @ric12g

      Select those four lines in Notepad++ and press Ctrl+f.
      All of the line data will appear in the Find what box of the Find dialog, but it will appear to run together.

      Pressing Find Next at that point should find the block of four lines.

      From there you can proceed to a Replace operation, where you replace with nothing to effectively delete the lines.

      You probably want to make sure you get the line-ending on the 4th line in your original selection.

      If you’re trying to match similar but not exact matches (as your lower example hints at), then this is a slightly different problem. But rather than answer something you didn’t ask for, I’ll wait until that’s asked for. :-)

      @mere-human said in Notepad++ stuck in administrator mode [Solution]:

      Should we add this somewhere into the user’s manual?

      Interesting thought. Selecting Administrator mode or not, and whether your shortcut or executable have that selected, is really more of a Windows OS question, not a Notepad++ - specific question.

      But if you had a good idea where in the manual to put it, I wouldn’t immediately reject an issue to add that (especially if it came with an accompanying PR).

      @mplusplus

      You say “after”, but then your example shows deleting everything before and including. I will assume your data, not your description, are correct.

      FIND = (?-s)^(?:.*?/){2} finds two groups of anything (zero or more characters) up to a slash and the slash itself
      REPLACE = leave empty
      SEARCH MODE = regular expression

      @PeterJones Thanks I got it. I had to nest it and I was able to have numbers stay blue instead of turning purple along with the delimiter.

      @cll142 ,

      Please note that UDL is not an infinitely-configurable solution; there are times that your desired styling for a language goes beyond what UDL can offer.

      At that point, your choices are to write a full lexer plugin which can be distributed as a DLL or through the Plugins Admin; if that’s beyond your scope, you might get the extra highlighting you want by using the Python Script plugin and the script EnhanceAnyLexer.py that @Ekopalypse shares in his github repo, which allows you to add extra highlighting to a builtin lexer (like the HTML lexer) or to a User Defined Language (UDL) using regexes.

      So if you cannot get the UDL “good enough”, do as much as you can, then try Eko’s script. If that still doesn’t cover your needs, writing a lexer plugin is the next option.

      @cll142 ,

      The UDL provides multiple keywords lists so that you can style different groups of keywords with different colors, similar to the way that the builtin lexers have multiple lists of keywords (like C has one style for commands like case and if, and a different style for data types like int and double)

      read the docs: https://ivan-radic.github.io/udl-documentation/

      Does anyone know why keywords are being highlighted in non keywords? | UDL

      @PeterJones Thanks for helping me get a better understanding of how the different folding style works and why keywords were being highlighted in non keywords.

      @plasmaster09 said in File tab on menu bar suddenly way too large:

      But all of a sudden, the File tab covers half the screen when clicked on for seemingly no reason, making things quite a bit harder. What do I do?

      Best to do would have been to paste a screenshot of it, so people don’t have to guess at what you’re talking about.

      @Hellhavens ,

      I’ve never tried that intensive an applicatino of the tail-f monitoring feature in Notepad++.

      You might want to play with various options in Settings > Preferences > MISC > File Status Autodetection to see if there’s a combo that makes the tail-f mode work better for you.

      Another thing that has been done via PythonScript for years, not sure why Notepad++ sees the need to add that now…

      Thanks to both @Steven-Smith and to @PeterJones as I had exactly the same question.

      I changed my username slightly with the new system and so, although I had copied session.xml, it was silently failing due to the different username in the file paths.
