Keep all highlights active (for one word) after deleting an occurence from the highlights list ?

Finelarme - Discovery

Hello everyone

Is there a way with Notepad++ to keep the word research highlights active after deleting one highlighted occurence of this word (I mean if I highlighted 100 times the word “tomato” will I still see the 99 other highlights “tomato” if I delete 1 “tomato” word) ?

If this is possible how could I do that please ?

Thank you for your help.

salut and welcome to the notepad++ community, @Finelarme-Discovery

if you want to mark (highlight) all occurrences of a word or phrase, and would like to be able to delete one instance of it, and all other instances of the same word or phrase will still stay marked (highlighted):

go to the notepad++ menu search > mark... (recherche > marquer...)
enter your desired word or phrase in the find what field (recherche) and press mark all (rechercher tout).
now you can delete any finding of your word or phrase, and the others will still stay marked (highlighted).
