It’s however Windows itself wants to display it; it has nothing to do with Notepad++.

In the future, please read this FAQ and use literal blocks of text wrapped in ``` to show your text rather than pasting images.

It is not clear what you want to remove at the end of the line, but if you want to remove everything before CUSTOMER REFERENCE NUMBER: on lines with that text, you can use Search->Replace... to open the find/replace form, check Wrap Around, set Search Mode to Regular expressions, set Find what: to (?-si).*(?=CUSTOMER REFERENCE NUMBER:), leave Replace With: empty, and hit the Replace All button.

Here is the standard documentation for regex in Notepad++.

@PeterJones Thanks, I’ll look into that.

Yes, answered there too … And, regarding the Gui painting, i succeeded in the essential parts.

Finally, regarding dark theme. there remained only three particular things:

The frames/borders around a treeview (borderStyle bsSingle, borderWidth 1)
appear somehow too light for me (does look a bit inconsistent)

The comboBox body was not painted in dark. -> This i could solve via:

ThemeName := ‘DarkMode_CFD’;
SetWindowTheme(ComboBox1.Handle, ThemeName, nil);

See image before/after:

But now: toolButtons with dropdown arrow: the dropdown symbol is not recognizable
(and dividers/separatos don’t look very well, but the most important thing are the dropdown arrows.
Is this solvable without painting the toolbutton from the scratch?
How is that achieved by others?

Any hints or tips would be very welcome.

I said in Some plugins' icons disappear when going from light to dark mode:

BMP icons are statically sized; the ICOs are “fluent”, i.e., can be scaled up […]

This is mostly correct, but I should have mentioned that toolbar BMPs actually can simulate a kind of “DPI awareness”, provided your plugin interface can access the GDI device capabilities API. See, for example, how ComparePlus goes about sizing its icons. There’s also a .NET example in my experimental template project.

If that’s too much trouble, just re-dimension your bitmaps to make sure they can scale up without blurring, then load them at 24x24 pixels, since that’s what the graphics device will normally choose for conventional screens using 96 DPI.

Version 4.1.1.21 has been released and will be included in the next Notepad++ update. Below are the key changes and improvements:

Header Column Menu: Right-click on the header to toggle columns like Find count, Replace count, Comments, and Delete.

Comments Column: Add custom comments to entries via the new optional Comments column. Existing list files remain fully compatible.

Column Locking: Lock the width of columns (Find, Replace, Comments) with a double-click on the header divider. A lock icon shows the status.

New Variables: Two new variables have been added for “Use Variables” option: FNAME: Represents the filename or window title for new, unsaved files. FPATH: Represents the full path including the filename, or is empty for new, unsaved files. Multilanguage Support: The plugin now supports Danish. Configuration Options: Manage settings via the INI file located at
C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\Config\MultiReplace.ini: DoubleClickEdits: To disable direct editing on double-click, set DoubleClickEdits=0 (default: enabled). Tooltips: To disable tooltips, set Tooltips=0 (default: enabled). AlertNotFound: To disable notifications for unsuccessful searches, set AlertNotFound=0 (default: enabled).

Here is a visual take on the changes:

Nice to see someone else frustrated/confused by the organization here.

And in case anybody else sees this later… Reverting to the previous working version is another workaround idea. Assuming you need it now, and don’t mind working around the automatic update automation (if enabled for you).

If you can find a bug online they often will tell you when the issue started. Or you can just start installing from an older setup version and testing. Keep trying something older until it works again. Or use the last version you’d been on…
