@Emmanuel-PIERRE said: Hello today I see that in 8.9.6.4 on win11 the Ctrl is not working, though in all others app this is fine. I have very few plugins in it (mime tools, npp converter, npp exports) so I guess this is not where it comes from. Shortcuts are fine. any idea ? If you mean that the Ctrl key with a letter that isn’t a shortcut isn’t inserting the traditional control character, see Settings | Preferences… | Editing 2 | Prevent control character (C0 code) from typing into document and be sure it is not checked. If you mean that Ctrl+drag on a selection is not working as it does in most Windows programs, that is a known peculiarity which can be resolved in either of two ways: Press the mouse button down first, then the Ctrl key. or Uncheck Settings | Preferences… | Editing 2 | Enable Multi-Editing (Ctrl+Mouse click/selection). If neither of those is your problem, you’ll have to be more specific.

@PeterJones said: Columns++ plugin (though I don’t remember it having the header or full-column highlight, or just a gazillion other features which make column manipulation easier; the author @Coises can chime in at this point). There’s nothing in Columns++ for coloring text. The plugin is helpful if you want to do operations on data in visible columns (like right-justify the entries in a column, add the numbers in a column together, search/replace restricted to a column, do calculations to create a new column, sort on a column in situations that don’t work with Notepad++’s built-in sort) and/or to use elastic tab stops to make maintaining visible columns easier. It doesn’t do any coloring, though. Help is here if anyone wants to examine it to judge whether they might want to install Columns++.

I’m at the top end of my C++ coding expertise so I’m no longer actively developing it. Cheers.
