      When using the Language (UDL) style tool, my selection or UDL stops hi-lighting after about 400 lines. After 400 lines, my code changes to a medium grey Courier font to the end of the file. Up to 400 lines, everything hi-lights OK. How can I fix this quirk?

        would you mind sharing udl and example file which confirms your reported behavior?
        What npp (debug-info from ? menu) and os version are you using?

        Cheers

          Hi Claudia-

          Notepad++ v6.9.2
          Build time : May 18 2016 - 00:34:05
          Path : C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
          Admin mode : OFF
          Local Conf mode : OFF
          OS : Windows 7
          Local language: SharkBase (VP-Info multi-user)

          Briefly, I started again from scratch, and this time the hi-lighting covered the entire file (about 600 lines). I possibly made some kind of syntax error when defining my language, or perhaps a recent NPP update fixed it. I will never know which it was. Regardless, in spite of its defining shortcomings, it’s a useful tool with lots of potential. i will keep working with it for now.
