change font colour in txt file of selected words

[miguel panta]

Hello,

I love notepad++ because it is so fast, clean and easy to use.

However, I am unable to accomplish to change the font settings (font, colour, size) of selected words, with a macro. I tried to use the styles/mark-function, to no avail.

Can somebody point me in the right direction please?

Many thanks,
Miguel

I’m not 100% sure I understand what you did or what exactly you try to accomplish.
Do you try to select a word and then you want to run a macro which should change
font, color and size of this selected text?
If so, I don’t think you can do this with builtins. PythonScript plugin might be one way to
make it work.

What exactly Is your general goal here? Maybe it can be done in a different way.
