    Another way to achieve the original goal of this thread (moving input focus) was inadvertently pointed out in this thread. Thus:

    Enable (tick) the Peek on tab feature in the MISC. section (of Settings menu -> Preferences). When your input focus is NOT in your active document (maybe it is in a console window or the Find-what zone of the Find window), but you want to move it there without changing caret position or destroying a currently-active selection(s), simply point the mouse at an inactive tab–assumes you have more than one file open–and the (IMO otherwise useless) document-peeker window will pop up. You will find input focus is now back in the editing window for the currently-active tab in the most recently-accessed view (view0 or view1).

    Either by using the normal Paste mechanism or by using the Paste Special function.

    Should I remove “r” from <Language name=“rebol” ext=“r reb” commentLine=“;” commentStart=“” commentEnd=“”> in the langs.xml file?

    Yes.

    Found it, yay. For now only one level, but that’s fine with me. For people who would look for the answer: Comment & Number tab, select Allow folding of comments, Comment line style: * :)

    Thank guy038, Clever! I’ll use it :-)

    However, (in case I have a really more complex manipulation to do!-), is it possible to do the above using XSL transformation from the XML Tools plugin?

    The last part of Guy’s expression:

    \d+

    means 1 or more digits. If you want a digit, a period, and exactly 3 digits, one way is to use this:

    \d\.\d{3}

    The first \d is for a single digit. The \. is for a period (the period means any character whatsoever unless it has a \ in front of it). The final \d{3} means exactly 3 digits.

    In cmd this would do the same:

    Hi @scott-sumner and All,

    I did some tests and it happens that the double hit on the Windows logo key allows to put the focus back on the main editor windows, again, if a window can be anchored to the main editor windows, at its right, left, top or bottom side

    So, it concerns, from native N++, the Character Panel, Clipboard History, Search Results, Project, Folder as Workspace and the Function List windows, as well as most of plugin’s windows as, for instance, the Python or Lua console window !

    However, just note that if any of these “dockable” panels is not docked and is, simply, floating like a separate windows, the double hit on the Windows logo key does not allow, anymore, to have the focus back, on the main editor windows !

    Strangely, it does not work too, with the Document Map panel, which, however, can be anchored !

    Cheers,

    guy038

    @tomass1047

    Either use predefined themes or change the background color independently.
    Both ways can be achieved by using Settings->Style Configurator menu.

    Well, I do it by setting a bookmark at where I want to come back to…

    ctrl+F2 (set bookmark) move away an arbitrary distance… shift+F2 (bring me back) ctrl+F2 (remove bookmark)

    Notepad++ itself can tell you something about it. If you open Edit (menu) -> Character Panel you will see:

    And here is some more info to help you with “FS”:

    If this (or ANY posting on the Notepad++ Community site) is useful, don’t reply with a “thanks”, simply up-vote ( click the ^ in the ^ 0 v area on the right ).

    Downgraded to 7.3.3. (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.3.3.html) and it works great.
    Looks like 7.5.1 something was wrong.
