@PeterJones said: So, sorry, I don’t know of a way to do that. But I am now curious if someone else knows of a way, or if one of the codebase experts knows why it might not be possible (or whether it’s a feasible feature request or not). (I’d apologize for providing a ‘non-answer’ as my answer, when you haven’t gotten a ‘real answer’ first… but I wanted to caution future respondants to not jump to the same conclusion I did at first without actually giving it a try for themselves.) No worries I like to see how people tackle problems. And with a software as vast as N++ where I know only a small percentage of all the functions, even a non answer shows me something new most of the times. Coises answer does the trick. In an ideal world I’d like a way to switch the behaviour so Alt+drag copies, but for all intents and purposes the solution works for me.

@PeterJones Great. Thanks

@karl3200 said: I agree. The print is too faint and red text is almost invisible. I guess people aren’t understanding my point: making a vague complaint is unhelpful. Provide details, and maybe somebody can do something about it. I asked @agoh2019 for more information not because I couldn’t make guesses similar to what @xomx pointed out in the existing issue – because, obviously, I pointed out some of the same guesses in my post here that were in that issue – but because more details means we can help you better with your exact circumstances. So, I will be more clear with @karl3200 : under what circumstances? What theme are you using? What are your print setttings (Settings > Preferences > Print, especially the Color Options)? Your theme influences what is seen in a printed version. The print settings influence what is seen in the printed version. If you describe your situation, and your exact current results, and your desired alternative results, we might be able to recommend a group of settings that will work for you – or it might give someone enough information to define a new Color Option choice that might work better for you and other people.

Hello, Trying to do IPv6 in Syntax Highlighting for FortiOS. As I wanted to have a different font color for the dots and the colons in the IP address, I use those as operators, and have 0-9 A-F (Uppercase A-F) as keywords set to prefix. This only works if you’re building configs though, and will go back to default if there are lower case a-f hex values if you do a copy/paste type of thing in NPP. I chose to opt for uppercase A-F since all FortiOS words are case sensitive and must be lowercase(Not strings/objects mind you). You can, while configuring the device, set IPv6 addresses with these uppercase hex values. Note: You can specify objects without string delimiters, but I find that to be bad form. And if you include grep filtering in NPP, these keywords could be exposed. Keywords List Group Prefix Mode: Checked 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F Operators 1 . : /
