    @liyanggang said in File sorting problem in folder workspace:

    Can you optimize the sorting order of the working folder file list in subsequent versions?

    I cannot. As I tried to make clear, this Forum is not the location for official feature requests; if you read the FAQ Desk: Feature Request or Bug Report link that I included in my previous message, it explains exactly where and how to make feature requests.

    Ummm, because when you have column data in the clipboard, it pastes as a column?

    The solution is to not select text in column mode before you do the copy. Select it in regular (stream) mode.

    There is probably a way.
    if you provide a sample G-code and pdf file with transcript. And the text from this pdf is better.

    Well, it is definitely a different directory. The previous directory would list the files in multiple columns and this one doesn’t. When I type in the file name it doesn’t finish filling it in either. I still think I’m now getting a DOS directory instead of the notepad and it has brought up the file in the browser a couple of times but I can’t repeat the problem. thanks Terry, I guess the problem wasn’t due to a notepad update but I will keep that in mind.

    @PeterJones, yes true about my phraseology. It wasn’t intentional. I noticed it might have come out as aggressive but forgot to change it after rereading the whole post.

    Thanks for the information. I’ll check FAQ Desk: Feature Request or Bug Report.

    I will also have a go at this and see if I can update this on the base image and it will not prevent the update from running manually. Will do some testing

    Thanks

    @Psotny-Chochlik ,

    I am sorry, I cannot replicate the problem. When I have Notepad++ closed, and run notepad++ -quickPrint filename.txt from the command line, it prints with margins, line numbers, headers, etc.

    Could you share the contents of your ? menu’s Debug Info and paste in your reply? Could you Alt+PrintScreen the Print Preferences page and paste in your reply? Could you show us exactly the command line that you use to run the -quickPrint?

    Doing that immediately closes N++ with no reloading prompts, for me.

    Weird.

    @Philippe-Malacher

    The function list has undergone a major change between 7.9 and 7.9.1.
    Suggest reading the documentation.
    Some further info is HERE in a post I made about my experience with function-list. It isn’t related to a UDL, though.

    @Toze-Cerdeira

    You would have to script a solution to that.
    A similar discussion that would show you how to do it is HERE.

    In your case your “find” expression could be: p2,(\d+), and you could replace with 'p2,' + str(int(m.group(1)) - 1) + ',' or something close to that; there are a few different ways to write these expressions.

    @Faizal-S ,

    I’ve never seen that behavior, but I’m having trouble understanding exactly your circumstances. If you provide us with more information about your configuration , it might help us understand what you’re asking about:

    go to the ? menu, Debug Info, and Copy Debug info into clipboard, then paste that into your reply if you have config settings (like “my own global cache”), you might screenshot that setting dialog, because I don’t understand what you’re asking, just paste them in the forum reply are there other screenshots to help us understand

    @ToastyBread3736 ,

    simply linking me to that article is of no use to me.

    Of course not. You have to read and comprehend what’s on the other end of the link.

    you could tell me that this post doesn’t belong here

    That’s what the FAQ article does. It tells you that your post was off-topic for the Notepad++ forum.

    link me to another [forum] where I can ask this question and get a better response

    We in the Notepad++ Forum cannot be expected to know every other forum on the internet, and what would be the best forum to answer your question. Especially since your question showed such a lack of understanding about the subject – both from a technical standpoint, and where to ask it. (From a technical standpoint, you don’t “put [your website] on Google”. You upload your website to your webhost, and then if people link to your website, it may someday show up in Google searches; or you can pay someone for SEO and services to get Google to see it sooner.) But, in general, if you don’t know the specific forum where a question should be asked, you could Google for “forum for website development” (or whatever your question actually relates to), or for virtually any technical question, assume that somewhere in the Stack Overflow family of forums, there’s probably one on-topic for your specific question.

    neither you or the article you sent me advances my knowledge of coding

    This is not a coding forum, so this is not a forum whose purpose is to advance your knowledge of coding. This is a forum on how to use the Notepad++ editor. The only on-topic reply for your question in this forum is to “use Notepad++ to type the code, then publish your code to your website.”

    We point people to the FAQ, because it tells you everything you should need in order to figure out that you’ve asked the question in the wrong Forum, and it saves us the time of responding in detail to every coding question that pops up incorrectly in this forum. Unfortunately, replies like yours then require us to say the same thing in a different way, because you apparently didn’t understand the point.

    @Trey-Hargrove-0

    Fairly easy, however you’ll need to use Notepad++ 7.9.1 or later (earlier versions will not handle the \A construct correctly) to do this:

    Use Replace in Files.

    find: \A(?s).*?~
    repl: ~

    Suggest making a backup of your whole fileset first; delete only after you’ve decided it works as intended.

    @All-Rfriends ,

    There’s nothing native to Notepad++ that does that out of the box.

    However, Notepad++ has plugins, including scripting languages.

    You can add extra highlighting to a builtin lexer (like the HTML lexer) or to a User Defined Language (UDL) using regexes via the script EnhanceAnyLexer.py that @Ekopalypse shares in his github repo.

    The regex would be something like (?-s)^.{11}\K(.) – I haven’t tried it, but that would be the first regex I would try = it finds first 11 characters .{11}, throws that out with \K, and then captures the single character (.). I believe that would do what you want.
