      When displaying search results, say it finds something on line 53 and 104…Have an option to show say 3 more lines. So the results would show 53 to 56 and 104 to 107.

      Reason is that code is often formatted like
      dosomething(param1,
      param2,
      param3);

      And we might want to see what is on line 3.

        Something like this has been proposed before, and I’ll have to assume that the developer and other code contributors, while they recognize the value of the idea, have thought that implementing it might be awkward – not coding it, but rather what the resulting solution looked like. So…I wouldn’t count on seeing it natively in Notepad++.

        However, it might be a nice suggestion for the Search++ plugin.
