Here is the answer… (unless someone tells me it creaes another a problem…)

The "echo’ command can include multiple lines as the simple example below illustrates.
Note the single quote mark brackets the echo’d code since double quote marks are used within the echo’d code at various points…

So for me this example code folds perfectly and in my real case actually runs :-)

If anybody sees a problem with using the multiple line php echo to manage folds in mixed html and php code please let me know.

Example: (To try it paste it into Notepad ++ and select PHP as the language)

<?php // TABLE 1 – ROW 1 – DISPLAY PAGE HEADER – THEN DISPLAY DATA INPUT FORM
echo ’
<table style=“width: 1233px; height: 595px; text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;” border=“1” cellpadding=“2” cellspacing=“2”>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style=“vertical-align: top; width: 150px; text-align: center;”>
</td>
<td style=“vertical-align: top;”>
';
$page_name = “mypage.php”;
include ‘inc_header.php’;
echo ’
</td>
<td Style=“vertical-align: top; width: 150px;”>
</td> <!-- t1 tr1 td3 -->
</tr>
';
?>

Hello, @vito-korleone,

I’m really disconcerted !! Unless I misunderstood your post, it’s quite an elementary task to achieve :-))

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Type in a single space character in the Find what: zone

Leave the Replace with: zone EMPTY

Tick the Wrap around option and the Normal search mode

UN-tick all the other options

Click on the Replace All button

Remark :

If you must delete the space characters, in a specific zone of your file, only :

Do a normal selection of that zone

Open the Replace dialog ( Ctrl + H )

Type in a single space character in the Find what: zone

Leave the Replace with: zone EMPTY

Tick the In selection option and the Normal search mode

UN-tick all the other options

Click on the Replace All button

Best Regards,

@Meta-Chuh posted an easy method to get the Plugin Manager here. After you get everything updated, you should be able to easily install NPPExec. If you already have NPP set up and you want to just download the Plugin Manager dll, @Claudia-Frank gave some good instructions here. The link she gave for the Plugin Manger is for the 64 bit version. If you’re using 32 bit try this link.

Good Luck

@Emiel-D

so you are saying you do the same on desktop pc and notebook and
if you open the file with npp on desktop you see multiple lines but if
you open it with npp on notebook you only have one line?
That would be strange. Do you use the same plugins on both?
Maybe one of it is corrupting the file - but to be honest,
I don’t see how. XML Tools has a linarize function, could it be that it is executed
when loading a xml file?

And no, there is no npp setting which needs to be applied.

Cheers
Claudia

@proeng

first step - read https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

next step - take an easy issue like let’s say #4165 and do the needed code changes.
Test, test and maybe test again if it does fix the problem. If you are convinced it is solved,
test it again.

Create the pull request and hope you did all you should have done ;-) (avoid magic numbers!! :-D )

Cheers

Hi Gerry. It’s difficult to tell what the issue/goal is from your description, but here’s what I suggest. Determine if you can create the folder structure you want with File Explorer (aka Windows Explorer, not Internet Explorer). Can you navigate between the folders you want to use? If you can’t do those things, you may have a permission issue that was triggered by the update and you have bigger issues than N++. At that point you’ll want to find a generic Windows forum to help you troubleshoot the problem.

If you’re only having problems with N++, come back and let us know exactly what you’re doing and how you’re doing it. "I go Save as, and when I go to create sub folder I cant " isn’t really a lot to go on. How are you creating the sub folder (right click-> New -> Folder in the Save-as dialog box?). What does it do when it “doesn’t let you”.

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way is a really long read, but it teaches you some pretty good troubleshooting techniques and it will help prevent you from being eaten alive on forums less friendly than this one ;)

Good Luck

Thank you very much. The problem is gone now.

you fully understood the problem.

this is a description of the problem:
suppose I open a file (available on the net) with the notepad, another user who opens the same file but with another software (for example Ultraedit or Vim) must not be able to modify it.

I hope I explained myself

@Marcelo-Castro

Unfortunately there is no direct way to copy redmarked text, nor in general copying any non-whole line result from a search (whole-lines can be copied by bookmarking while marking, then there is a command to copy bookmarked lines).

So you can take @MAPJe71 's suggestion…make a copy of your file (if needed) and then remove the text (via Find something and Replace with nothing) you don’t want and keep the text you do want.

There are some other ways to copy redmarked text; this thread discusses some of them: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/12710/marked-text-manipulation

Strange.

When you disable Settings > Preferences > MISC > ☐ Enable Notepad++ Auto-updater, then exit and reload Notepad++, is it still disabled? If you open %AppData%\Notepad++\config.xml (or, if you are using local config, then your c:\program files (x86)\notepad++\ directory, or wherever you installed notepad++), there should be a line that says something like:

If it says “yes”, then it should be doing “noUpdate”, so it shouldn’t be auto-updating. If it says “no”, then it should be doing the update. (reverse logic in the config.xml compared to the state of the toggle switch in the preferences)

If all the copies of config.xml say “yes” to noUpdate, and if the GUI’s preferences shows the auto-updater is disabled, and it’s still trying to update, you could try to rename the gup.exe and possibly gup.xml in your c:\program files (x86)\notepad++\updater\ (or equivalent) directory

There’s a plugin called Menu Search that might work for you. It’s available in the Plugin Manager.

There have been other threads in the past on high-resolution monitors, like https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/14634/app-scaling-in-4k-resolution and https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/13528/high-resolution-monitor-issues … but those seem more focused on the interface than the text size.

If it’s just the text size is too small, you could try changing Settings > Style Configurator > Global Styles > Default Style > Font Style > Font Size to a bigger font.
