      Hi,

      I’m wondering if there’s a way so to have the CSS autocomplete enter a colon at the end of the current selection?

      For example, type “marg”, select “margin-left” from the pop-up autocomplete selector box, and press enter to select that option. You’re then left with “margin-left” typed out. I’m looking to see if it’s possible to have it type out “margin-left:” with the colon at the end of the property when you hit enter to select it?

      Cheers.

        Hi Bruce,

        if this should always happen you can modify the particular api file located
        under YOUR_INSTALLATION_PATH\Notepad++\plugins\APIs.

        E.g (css.xml)
        …
        <KeyWord name=“margin-bottom” />
        <KeyWord name=“margin-left:” />
        <KeyWord name=“margin-right” />
        …

        Cheers
        Claudia
