      Hello all, a collegue of mine has this kind of setup on notepad++:

      7216ef9a-c279-405d-b133-1c169d693456-image.png

      How can I achieve to have this kind of colored blocks? Could be very useful for separating different kinds of infos/data.

      Thanks!

        @Diego-Giurgola ,

        The colored blocks shown there are the “Change History” feature, which requires v8.4.6 or newer. So those line colors in the margin will change based on which lines have been changed or saved since you started editing the file.

        They are not an “attribute” that you can set, so you cannot say, “in file1.txt, I want lines 1-7 to have a green margin and 8-12 to have an orange margin”, so the feature that you are seeing will not do what I think you want.
