    @donho ,
    I’m not sure this is humor for it’s own sake, or a veiled attempt at sarcasm. Either way, I don’t want govenment, especially the UN in anything, period. :-)

    :) you are not lucky, eh?

    It looks like the reason it works for me is that I’m using the LF EOL, not CR LF as typical in Windows.

    Cheers

    P.S. @Brent-Ficker if you’re not familiar at all with regex, the “Extended” mode setting would work for this particular problem too, to gently introduce you to such things.

    I had to reinstall to get the English Customizable file installed (C:\Notepad++\localization\english_customizable.xml). I made some recommended changes (name="Exit&°"), changed to English and then back to English Customizable and tested it and it did not exit as desired; thanks!

    @PeterJones
    The advantage of a specific category is that one can subscribe / watch that particular one. Or binge in reading many “solutions” in a row.
    “General” is general, almost anything goes there.
    “Blog” is for blogs… which IMO is something like long prose, chronological… doesn’t seem suitable (to me) for sharing a few random tips/ solutions one finds.

    Perhaps you’re right that tags are underutilized. Though in this case, I’m not sure that a single tag would fit the many kinds of tips/solutions one would like to share. Because there is no enforcing of a particular tag.

    Hi,

    first of all, please hide/change your secret_key setting (or remove the image), as this is a public forum and others may misuse it. :(

    Unfortunately, there may be bugs in the latest NppOpenAI v0.5 update (updates/fixes can be found on the NppOpenAI development project page), so I suggest that instead of setting a route_chat_completions, you should specify the URL “all at once”, e.g.

    api_url=https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions

    Edit: You can leave the route_chat_completions setting unchanged.

    I apologise for the error!

    @chk1 said in Marked text manipulation:

    Right now, with help of the script, I open the Marks search (Ctrl+M), enter my search term and press “Mark all”. Then I run the script to convert all marks to multi-edit selections. I want to reduce these extra steps if possible, i.e. in the best case: Ctrl+F, enter search word, hit Alt+Enter.

    It might not be worth it for your case, but the Search dialog in the Columns++ plugin has Select All as an option on the dropdown menu on the Count button.

    You can assign a shortcut to Columns++ | Search in Notepad++ shortcut mapper; but at present, there is no straightforward way to open the Count button menu using only the keyboard.

    @ilya-zabelin ,

    The certificate / signature is not broken – it is signed using a CA (Certificate Authority) Certificate that you don’t have. You just need to follow the instructions linked to as the self-signed-certificate link in the Release Announcement, which links to the official website instructions: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/v883-self-signed-certificate/ . Or the online user manual has an entire section on how to install the CA cert on your machine.

    (GlobalSign refused to let the developer get a certificate issued in the “Notepad++” name, so he made this new CA cert to “bridge the gap” until he is able to get some paperwork filed with his local government to register “Notepad++” as an organization, so that hopefully GlobalSign will be willing to use the “Notepad++” name on the certificate; government beaurocracy can be slow, so it might be a while, which is why the CA cert needs to be installed in the interim.)

    Has anyone here found how to open those relative path links from within the Notepad++ file, in their default app ?

    That would make the solutions listed here even more useful IMO; one could have for instance have the documentation of a project in simple text files.

    Opening the links at either double-click (better, & underlined) or some other action.
    I’ve requested the feature on github https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/16942

    @Patrick-909

    And keyboard shortcuts can be assigned to menu commands by choosing run > modify shortcut and switch to the Main Menu tab on the Shortcut Mapper.

    It would be good to have the Open in Default Browser be located in either the View or Run Menus, but creating a shortcut works for me.

    I’d like to ask the affected users here, for which switching the DirectWrite OFF helped - what OS, graphics card and version of its drivers are they using?

    E.g. post: Windows 10, Nvidia GeForce xyz, 2/24/2023 30.0.14.7430

    (you can find such info e.g. by WinKey+R, type there devmgmt.msc -> OK, and check the Display Adapters > doubleclick on an adapter > Driver tab)

    @Danie-Bosman,

    I used moderator powers to fix your embedded image.

    Are the arrows indicatiing Tab characters, or merely indicating where the indents are?

    Your drawn red arrows are the View > Show Symbol > Show Indent Guide indicators. They show up whether you are set to spaces or tabs, so it won’t help you determine which you are set to.

    OTOH, the related View > Show Symbol > Show Space and Tab do show spaces vs tabs:

    126dc4bb-05c5-4be7-aa93-20a8ffd5e33a-image.png

    As @Alan-Kilborn said, the long right arrows are tab characters, the mid-dots are space characters.

    Unfortunately, your screenshot did not include enough information to tell what language your code is in. Like I said, the screenshot needs to include the status bar to show us that, and you cut it off before the status bar. Your language looks vaguely VisualBasic-like, but that’s just a guess. (Though it’s confusing to me that your tab name claims *.txt, but it’s syntax highlighted like code; have you associated .txt with something other than normal text?)

    Anyway, whatever language it’s set to, whether you are willing to show the status bar or not, assuming you can read the status bar yourself, or can look in the Language menu to determine what language is active for syntax highlighting your .txt file with code, you need to click on that language’s entry in the Indent Settings box that lists all the languages, and see what the Indent Using is set to for that language: see whether it’s set to Use default value, in which case it will follow the [Default] settings you show in you screenshot; or it might not have that set, and instead have its own, like Makefile does:

    Examples comparing my settings for Visual Basic with Use default value vs Makefile with its own set to use tabs:

    Visual Basic 1e2784be-9137-4be5-9b25-e49554bfbb19-image.png Makefile 2ec29bcd-b77d-4519-9876-c610152b64fa-image.png

    update: But given your indication that you seemed to think the guidelines were tab characters (which they aren’t, necessarily), then my guess is that you were just misinterpreting what you were seeing, and this whole time, you really do have spaces where you thought it was still inserting tabs. Again, View > Show Symbol > Show Space and Tab will show you definitively and unambiguously whether the characters are spaces or tabs.

    @PeterJones Thank you Peter, that seems about right. I was able to find and clear the keyboard shortcuts (Settings --> Shortcut Mapper for others who don’t know offhand).

    @PeterJones said in npp v8.6 reverses the order of lines on column copy/paste:

    Unlike @Coises , I don’t consider it a “feature” (ie, a bug masquerading as a feature), I think it’s a reasonable compromise between all the different opinions on what the “right” behavior should be when mixing between column and multi-select mode.

    I agree — perhaps the scare quotes were a bit excessive. For certain, it’s intended behavior; it was never a bug that was presented as a feature to avoid dealing with it.

    I think that for users like me, who use rectangular selections frequently and multiple selections rarely, the improvements to multiple selection in the early 8.x releases felt like a degradation in user experience. Some of that has been mitigated by the Multi-Editing options (though, for example, turning off the ability to create multiple selections when you do want them is an unfortunate trade-off for not breaking normal drag-copy conventions… but if I recall correctly, that binary choice is baked into Scintilla, so it would be fragile at best for Notepad++ to attempt something different).

    I imagine it appears exactly reversed to people who use multiple selections often and rarely want rectangular selections: they probably wish the distinction could be eliminated so they didn’t have to keep track of different behaviors when a rectangular selection hasn’t been changed to a multiple selection.

    You can customize the right-click context menu for your own use; consult the user manual (found via the ? menu in Notepad++) for details on how.
