    No there is not unfortunately. I’ve looked into this in the past making my own variant of C. The User Defined Languages work completely differently from the ones already built in. There are ways of adding new keywords to existing languages though if this is all you are wanting to do. If you use the menu Settings > Style Configurator... and select VB under the languages languages and WORDS under the style list, towards the right you can add user-defined keywords. This may not be exactly what you were wanting but it may be enough to get by if you don’t want to recreate VB as a user defined language.

    You might also want to have a closer look at the NppExec plugin. It will catch and display any compiler output in a dockable panel.

    #Solved.
    An updated plugin was the problem. I removed all of the updated plugins and now works good.

    Turns out that the font size settings in

    C:\Users[user]\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\stylers.xml

    were not consistent, and apparently the grid lines were set to the largest font size, even though all the php font settings were for 8pt;.

    By doing a global change of

    fontSize=“10”

    to

    fontSize=“8”

    the vertical indent guidelines are now properly aligned.

    Oh God, I feel so happy, and so embarassed. I did not read your entire answer before replying. The devilish “autocomplete” is now just ticked off, all right. No need to kill, just tick it off; shame on me, and many thanks on you. A probable serious engagement to Notepad++ is now on sight.
    Thanks again,
    Ed
    P.S. Maybe of use to you: If you may sometimes feel in need of a Keep on Top utility, I use tiny Deskpins.exe to good measure.

    Hi,

    thank you for the hint. It turned out that visimulator.dll in my plugins folder messed things up. Without that plugin column mode works again as expected.

    Go to “Settings > Preferences > Multi-instance” and select “Always run in multi-instance mode”. After doing that you’ll be able to run a separate instance on each desktop.

    Paul, thanks for your feedback, much appreciated. I agree with you that the DSpellCheck plugin by Sergey Semushin is one of the most important plugins for many users. It doesn’t ship with the Notepad++ distribution atm because it causes the application to hang on newer versions of Windows. The plugin will be back as soon as that issue gets sorted out.

    If your local computer is running Windows and the remote system is running Linux, you’ll probably want to change the way WinSCP handles plain text files. By default, WinSCP converts line endings between systems so on each machine the file is stored with the machine’s system default settings.
    I suggest that in WinSCP, you go to Preferences/Transfer/Presets, double-click on “Text”, and change “Transfer Mode” from “Text” to “Binary”. This should do the trick as long as you don’t save with Windows line endings locally by accident.

    I find that if I hide a few lines, then hide a few more lines right below the previously hidden, restoring them to visibility on restores the second group. The first group remains hidden, with no little triangles in the margin to restore them.
