    Hello @Lucas-Gravano,

    can you check if you have session snapshot and periodic backup enabled?
    If so, can you check if there is a backup of your work in the notepad\backup directory?
    Nevertheless, there are some reports, that this functionality seems to have caused some problems
    so you might consider to disable it.
    In addition, can you reproduce this behaviour? I assume Don and the devs would be interested to see
    why and how this happened.

    Cheers
    Claudia

    Hello @Nozomu-Ezomori,

    this depends highly on the real file content. I assume, from the given example, that it is a xml file, correct?
    If so, a script, written in a language which can handle xml documents, can easily do it as long as the xml node
    has an unique identifier like the parent node, or its node name etc…
    I assume it can also be done by using the mighty regular expressions if there is a pattern which can be identified.

    So, without having the real content, we can only give suggestions on how to solve it.

    Cheers

    Hello @رمزي-غساسنة

    what about recording a macro?
    Open the file

    start recording press CTRL+END put in the line you want press save right click on tab and select close (optional) stop recording save macro with w meaningful name.

    For the other documents you only need to open document and run macro.

    Cheers

    Hello @Jim-Reid,

    thank you for pointing out this issue. In regards to renaming the file, if you right-click on the file and open
    Security tab you can select your user and choose Edit to assign the proper rights.

    Cheers

    Hi Eric,

    I faced just the same problem / challenge. After some testing with various tools I finally ended up with TyperTask (http://www.vtaskstudio.com/support.php). I works pretty well and I am very flexible - it doesn’t belong to a specific application. Now I can use this kind of function where ever I type right now.
    I think even PortableApps.com published a version of it.
    Good luck,
    Ralf

    Hello @_F-3000_,

    I know wine and npp works but don’t have any experience using webdavs. I assume that it will work,
    when the web links are mounted into the filesystem as npp hasn’t any webdav driver/component builtin.

    Cheers

    This is a problem with Scintilla, meaning you should report it to them.

    thx for the flowers but to be honest, this wasn’t that difficult as I were in the same situation as OP some time ago.
    It drove me crazy and I wasn’t able to find the reason because I was looking for npp settings only.
    Then one day, per accident, I checked the settings of location navigate plugin and, voila, here we go. :-)

    Hello Camilo,

    In addition to the Claudia’s Search/Replacement, we could simplify and shorten a bit this S/R, as below :

    Find what: ^(?:.+?,){3}\K(.+?,)(.+?), Replace with : \2 \1

    Notes :

    ^ represents the classical assertion Start of line

    (?:.+?,){3} represents a non-capturing group, repeated three times, exactly, in order to go through the first three columns. This group is the smallest range of standard characters, with its comma delimiter

    The \K syntax forces the regex engine to forget any previous match of the regex

    So, the remainder, (.+?,)(.+?),, is the final match, which gets the 4th column along with the comma delimiter AND the 5th column, without its comma delimiter

    In replacement, the syntax \2 \1 just swaps these two columns, with a space between them

    IMPORTANT :

    As the \K form is used, your MUST perform a global replacement, clicking on the Replace All button.

    The Step by Step replacement, with the Replace button, does nothing, in that specific case ( N++ bug ) !

    Best regards,

    guy038

    I have now used the compare 1.5.6.7 without any problem, as compared to the plugin manager normal download. Now it works as it is supposed to and a big relief.
    Why is it simple things get overlooked. Thanks for help resolving.

    Well, I don’t know exactly what’s happening, but I think I have some useful insight. You were right that the problem was tied to the UDL “AutoHotKey” (which is not authored by me). So I checked the XML file that defines that UDL, and noticed that every style in the <styles> section had a fontName specified, and that the font specified was not a font on my system.

    In the “Define your language…” dialog within NPP, all the “Styler” buttons were leading to dialogs with “Font options” -> “Name” being blank, which I assumed to mean “use the default style”. However it appears that NPP is NOT using the default style when it doesn’t recognise the font specified in the XML file. Why or even if that leads to the strange bracket-matching behaviour above, I don’t know.

    For now, I have removed those fontName specs from the AutoHotKey UDL on my system, and NPP now uses the default font as expected, so everything is fine.

    I hope this information can help lead to the bug being tracked down.

    Hi Kelly,

    good to see that the docs are still available but now it’s time to update npp, isn’t it? ;-)
    Don’t feel stupid - who solved it? - yourself. Be happy ;-)
