“Find in Files” issue, seems new:

Open the “Find in Files” dialog
Select a directory
Search for files
Close the window
Delete/move the directory from step 2
Open the “Find in Files” dialog again
Try to select another directory using the ellipses (“…”) button

Expected: Folder selection system dialog appears

Actual result: nothing.

Thank you for pointing this out.
I’ve created an issue for that: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9569

The document map displays like this:
The title of the document map window does not respond to changes in language settings, a restart is required.
JSON syntax has no highlights, using Java syntax instead.

@László-Botka I’m facing the same issue, so I revert back to the 7.9.2 version and now working fine.

Unable to open files using a UNC path - the leading “\” is changed to just “”. This problem did not exist in 7.9.1. Running on Windows.

kosigan5 · Mar 5, 2021, 12:10 PM

@kosigan5 - that should be “\\” and “\”

I believe this is a known issue and will be fixed in the next release.

@Alan-Kilborn - OK, thank you. I didn’t see it on this list.

Dialogues like “File Open” or “Save As” do not open up at all when installed on Windows Server Core 2016, no issue with Server 2016 Core machines where 7.9.2 is still installed.

Ok, I’ll take a look once I get a VM for this OS version.

Which way do you use Notepad++? Do you have a desktop?
I’m not very familiar with Windows Server Core, but it seems that by default, it has no desktop GUI:

@kickapoo Here is an issue I’ve created: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9621
Please, post any comments in that issue.

@mere-human

Thanks, yes, that´s right, Core Editions have no Desktop environment, you only have a commandprompt.

I use the 2016 Core image as it is in AWS EC2, additionally installing .NET 4.8 for testing my applications and also Chocolatey, which is also used to install npp (https://chocolatey.org/packages/notepadplusplus ). Tried also downloading and installing manually, made no difference.

Npp is used for looking at log files, nothing fancy, started via commandprompt simply by typing notepad++.exe. Also the dialogue can be used for file operations to easier copy/move files between the vm and my local machine, as there is also no Windows file explorer like explorer.exe on board.

Note: On „regular“ notepad.exe that comes with Windows, those dialogues open without issues.

Could you check if your problems in v7.9.3 are solved in v7.9.4 (RC) ?

Re: Notepad++ v7.9.3 Released

View --> “Hide Line Number Margin” doesn’t work anymore. The line numbers stay visible, they don’t disappear. In my former version v7.9.1. it works.

Please solve this in v7.9.4. Until then I use v7.9.1.

View --> “Hide Line Number Margin”

AFAIK, there is no “Hide Line Number Margin” on the “View” menu.
So… don’t know what you’re talking about. The control for the line number margin is in Settings menu > Preferences… > Margins/Border/Edge and looks like this:

geertsj · Mar 11, 2021, 7:54 AM

@Alan-Kilborn Yes, it exist:

geertsj · Mar 11, 2021, 9:32 AM

It doesn’t work also in 7.3.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.3.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.3.2.

Ekopalypse · Mar 11, 2021, 8:53 PM

There is no such menu entry in Npp

It must be part of a plugin. Can you post your debug info which
is available from the ? menu?

Hello, @geertsj, @alan-kilborn and All,

@geertsj, first, you said :

It doesn’t work also in 7.3.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.3.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.3.2.

I suppose that you wanted to say :

It doesn’t work also in 7.9.2. See picture. I see the Line Numbers while I have selected View --> Hide Line Number Margin. In version 7.9.1. it works. It seems to be related to the new Line Number changes since 7.9.2.

Now, it’s definitively not an Notepad++'s issue

I think that, in each new release, you re-installed the CustomizeToolbar plugin. This is that plugin which adds the commands, below, inside the View menu !

Hide Line Numbers Margin
Hide Bookmark Margin
Hide Folder Margin

And probably, you added these three commands to your context menu !

And, as a new Margins/Border/Edge panel has been added to the Preferences dialog, since N++ v7.9.2, I suppose that you should contact the developer dave-user or create an issue here

Best Regards,
