    Hello, @coises and All,

    Thanks for that new release ! Briefly :

    I quickly test the Replace All button, while in ICU mode as well as the new icon for the Selection scope on command buttons => I onfirm the expecting results !

    Thanks for including the Current Line Indicator and Caret settings within Search++. It’s worth to point out that if you modify these N++ settings during a N++ session, you’ll need to close and restart Notepad++ in order that these new parameters are taken in account by the Search++ plugin !

    Finally the message, regarding the null matches when using a Mark or Show command, is, indeed, much more explicit !

    Now, I stumbled upon a weird bug : while within a N++ session :

    If Search++ panel is already opened, click on the cross, on the far right to close the Search++ dialog

    Now, re-open Search++ with the Plugins > Search++ > Search... option ( Note that I use the Docking mode )

    Click on the current tab ( not within the text window ! )

    Click on the Search++ windows title

    Sometimes, you’ll need to repeat these last two actions twice, in order to trigger that bug

    Now, try to close the Search++ panel by clicking on the cross, on the far right => Nothing happens !?

    Generally, after some clicks, the dialog finally closes !

    Note that I mapped the Ctrl + Shift + N shortcut to the Plugins > Search++ > Search... option. So, if I use this shortcut, I’m able to actually close the Search++ dialog in that specific case and also in all the other cases !

    I would consider that it’s a minor bug and I’m not 100 % certain about the steps to reproduce it : not quite obvious !

    Best Regards,

    Hello, @peterjones and All,

    Peter, in one of your posts, that I cannot seem to find, you mentioned a new feature in Windows 11 Notepad that, by default, allows you to close the application, even if there are unsaved files, similar to Notepad++

    Just in case you have not figured out, on your own, how to change this default behavior ( witch would really surprise me ! ), here is the method :

    Open Microsoft Notepad

    Click on the gear icon, on far right of the Menu bar

    Look for the line When Notepad starts

    Click on the arrow on the far right of this option

    Select the Start new session and discard unsaved changes option

    Close and re-start Notepad

    => The old Notepad behavior should be back with just an untitled tab when starting Microsoft Notepad !

    Best Regards,
