@lycan-thrope Forgot to mention, I may be the younger member, too. :-) We actually have a developer that’s in his 90’s…and another in his 80’s, so since I’m the young one that isn’t actively working, I figured it would make a nice side hobby to setup the NPP package since many have been asking if one exists, and many said if there was, they’d like to know where it is. :-) Of course, the main reason everyone says they haven’t gotten doing it is time…and that’s about all I have to offer since retiring. :-) Lee

@rdipardo said in New version of HTML Tag: By urgent request, My “urgent request” and thank you for promptly adding this feature. Certainly not expected to be this quick, but you are a very talented and dedicated developer and I do appreciate your commitment to Notepad++ and supporting the plugin ecosystem. This will certainly make my workflow (currently involves creating / editing XML schemas and docs) much easier as the tags update and change in the flux of this development period and auto-selecting the matching tags (sometimes far away in the document and nested) for renaming saves so much manual time. Cheers.

@PeterJones Great. Thanks

… but bear in mind that this is in an early alpha stage and that there is another plugin that already covers some pitfalls when it comes to implementing LSP for Npp and Scintilla.

@Terry-R yes it is in https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/5250

@Claudia-Frank Just to clarify the “hang” is a really hard hang where I have to kill N++ and restart it, not just a long delay…

I haven’t thought about the old post and that it might generate trouble, therefore, better just leave it as it is and don’t worry about it anymore. Thx for all insights and tips. :-)

@PeterJones This was the answer I was waiting for. Thank you very much

@peterjones if it’s interesting, I finally hunted down the relevant UltraEdit wiki page as well as a screenshot of it being used [image: 1656351792356-53912d41-6bdc-41b2-8ef1-f32e5a520a63-image.png]

@PeterJones I haven’t checked the Scintilla source code, but I’d be surprised if the code didn’t just ignore the alpha value. A quick test seems to confirm this. [image: 1751906378512-81a75ca8-8b44-4ca7-90cf-a0e31b288f38-d5638942-d3bc-41b4-83bb-90b7c809d881.png]

@datatraveller1 Awesome. You are the best!

@donho , Thanks for the verifcation, and sorry for the late reponse, I came down really sick that night for about a 5 day period after posting this, and am just getting back into the swing of things. Just wanted to make sure we didn’t need to be redundant about that process. Thanks again for the clarification.

Ah ok. So just noticed this has been implemented after updating to 8.9.7. How do I get around the dialog coming up “security information for shortcuts.xml is missing in config.xml” when I deploy this to multiple computers? I have a “master copy” of a portable installation on a network drive, then update that whenever a new version comes out. There is a batch file on a “client” PC that basically copies that folder from the network drive to a local drive on the client. So every client, whenever they first use a macro, gets this warning and has to validate the shortcuts.xml file. How do I stop this from happening, i.e. how can I make the shortcuts.xml file “trusted” in the master copy on the network drive, so it appears trusted on any other client that happens to download it?

@SuHaIl-MaJiD said in Find in Files not working: I navigated to the APPdata location (~\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++) however i do not see the config.xml file there Any suggestions to get this working? Your Debug Info (thanks for including that) shows that you have a normal installation, so config.xml and all your other config files should be there. Are you sure Windows isn’t hiding files from you? Or just hiding the extension, so maybe it is just listed as config instead of seeing config.xml? make sure you’ve exited Notepad++ completely, so it’s written the most-recent copy to disk. If you want, you could use Win+R to run cmd.exe /K cd "%AppData%\Notepad++" & dir – if you don’t see config.xml there, then please share the output of that run in your reply. If you do find your config.xml, then you can close Notepad++, edit it in MS notepad.exe (you cannot edit config.xml in Notepad++, because Notepad++ overwrites that file when you exit Notepad++, losing any changes you saved), and delete the whole <GUIConfig name="DockingManager"...> section, save and exit, then restart Notepad++, and Find in Files should work for you again. This procedure is found in our FAQ: I Cannot Find My Panel!
