      If the discussion is over your head, then modifying it for your need likely is as well. Maybe Eko will see value in that kind of thing and modify his script accordingly (or create a new one).

        Could you provide me with a little more explanation?

        I’ve never used it; I just advocate it. :-) Hopefully, @Ekopalypse will chime in.

          @Alan-Kilborn I’m a pretty fast learner, but discerning what is relevant to me by reading someone else’s conversation on a similar topic and understanding what I need to do… is a bit difficult.

            I’m not 100% certain I understand what you trying to achieve.
            Do you need some kind of “color this line different than the others”, or do you really need “this line should be colored like the sql lexer does as it is sql” and “this line should be colored as perl lexer does as it is really perl” etc. ? Or do you want to have certain words or text fragments colored differently?
            Could you provide an example of such a text?

              @Ekopalypse please excuse my ignorance, but I believe I need: “this line should be colored like the sql lexer does as it is sql” and “this line should be colored as perl lexer does as it is really perl” etc. - If I set the language to DAX, the entire file will use DAX syntax highlighting. If I set the language to SQL, the file will use SQL syntax highlighting. I want to be able to highlight specific text and assign the syntax to use. I’m told that Sublime Text 3 allows for this, but only with related languages like java and c++ etc.- It may be that I am not asking my question correctly, but I hope this clarified it a little.

                I don’t know if it helps to know that I added DAX syntax highlighting following instructions given here - since it is not available by default:

                  nothing to excuse.
                  I’m not a native English speaker and just wanted to be sure to understand it correctly, that’s why a asked for clarification.

                  Having two lexers (code which does the coloring) active at the same time isn’t supported by npp/scintilla.
                  There is a concept of sublexers but as far as I know, the only lexer which does this is the html lexer. This colors html, javascript, php etc… in one lexer.

                  So, in order to be able to make this work for you one would either write a lexer which
                  does the lexing for both languages or you have to decide to use one builtin lexer and enhance it with additional colorings like @PeterJones mentioned.

                  As I don’t know DAX, well I know DAX as the german stock index, as a language can
                  you provide me a link or details about its syntax?

                    Are you looking for something like this - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/dax-syntax-reference

                    Or this - https://support.office.com/en-us/article/quickstart-learn-dax-basics-in-30-minutes-51744643-c2a5-436a-bdf6-c895762bec1a

                    This may also be helpful - https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/rules-for-dax-code-formatting/

                    Otherwise, here is an sample of something I might write:
                    POSI TCs:=CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Trouble Call]),FILTER(all(Data), Data[Position] = values(Data[Position])))

                    • POSI TCs: - is the name of the Measure
                    • Data - is the name of the Table
                    • Trouble Call & Position - are Column Names within the Table

                    (How do I include an example from notepad++, so you can see what it looks like for me? -I saw that you were able to do that in your posts - As you may be able to tell, I’m new to posting questions on forums.)

                      thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for.
                      To include code you can use 3 tildes before the code and 3 tildes afterwards.
                      Like ~~~ code ~~~.
                      To include a screenshot, you have to upload it to some hoster like imgur.com and
                      include it like ![](https://i.imgur.com/qq9erDL.jpg) woluld result in

                        Understood. It would take some absorption…which means time. :)

                        And I think I know the next thing you’ll want: Notepad++ to remember (over multiple runs) your setting for text you previously did this to. It’s a bit of a challenge.

                            after thinking about it for some time I can imagine how this could be achieved.
                            In theory:

                            • using a hidden scintilla document
                            • and a script for selecting which lexer should be used

                            workflow:

                            • select text
                            • run script and select lexer from a messagebox, prompt, or whatever ui
                            • now, under the hood, the script would get the text selected and paste it into the
                              hidden scintilla document and sets the lexer. Then it reads the styles assigned to
                              the text and sets it in the real document

                            Is this possible? I don’t know, I never done something like this but is something I’m eager to find out. So I need some time playing around and let you know.
                            Concerning the “Can I stop npp, restart some time later and the coloring is still there?”,
                            I would say, yes, if a strict policy is in place. Something like a file must be saved always and this file is not allowed to be manipulated outside from npp.

                              I’ve tested the concept and it looks like it could work, BUT
                              there are some strange things happening.

                              Assuming one wants to color every word of a text in red.
                              When using these three lines to do the coloring

                                  editor.setIndicatorCurrent(INDICATOR_ID)
                                  editor.setIndicatorValue(color | SC_INDICVALUEBIT)
                                  editor.indicatorFillRange(start, length)
                              

                              there is an extreme difference in performance if you call it directly or via a callback
                              like SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.UPDATEUI.

                              If one is using a callback it takes 11ms to color 377 words,
                              if calling it directly, it takes 6 seconds. ???

                              In addition, if calling it directly, it happens that not all words get colored.
                              Sometimes it misses 2 or 3 or … words even so the debug shows that those missed
                              words are actually processed. ???

                              What haven’t I understood?

                              And some more strange things. Just for the fun, I’ve tested a python only version,
                              means building a window and embedding scintilla in pure python,
                              but python3 I must admit, it took 3ms to do the same thing.
                              What is slowing down when using PS??

                                I think there are some “slowness” gremlins in Pythonscript that no one has totally figured out yet. Here’s a reference to another type, maybe some hints here for you Eko because from observation it definitely seems like you have the skills to maybe solve it or at least root cause it. I was hoping @Claudia-Frank would solve these things, but no luck and she has disappeared. Maybe you are the new Claudia. ;)

                                I would like to understand how to do that, sure, just for fun. :)

                                  Make sure your SciLexer.dll is in the same directory as your script and, of course,
                                  that python bitness matches SciLexer.dll bitness.

                                  Edit: You need to pip install win32 package.

                                    editor.callbackSync(on_updateui, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.UPDATEUI])
                                    

                                    Edit: be careful about the callback as it will color every document, use it, maybe, in its own npp instance :-)

                                      Claudia posted this and I slightly modified it.

                                      Ah…well it appears that even if you are not the new Claudia, you are at least “channeling” the old Claudia. That posting from Claudia was only 4 days old…seems she is still in the Scintilla game even if not the N++ game…maybe she is making the next new great competitor for N++??

                                      if they were confused how should I find it?

                                      You seem to have a knack for this stuff (way beyond my basic skill); maybe all it takes is a pair of fresh eyes?

                                      BTW, I have a new (perhaps tough?) problem for Pythonscript that I’ll be posting here (well, in a brand-new thread) soon…hopefully you’ll be watching for it. :)

                                        she recently posted at pythonscript github so I’m hoping that she might find her
                                        way back home and of course, I’m always looking for python related stuff :-D

                                          Just in case you wondered what happend, well, just real life or better wife :-)

                                          I guess I have something you can play with.
                                          The save option, meaning remembering what was colored where and how, needs to be discussed.

                                          I see three option

                                          1. use an additional file with the same name as the current file but with a different unique extension, which contains colors and position
                                          2. use one file which contains the names of the files which were used and there colors and position
                                          3. not using any file at all, but a marker in the original file which indicates where a different languages starts and stops.

                                          Concerning the script itself.
                                          You have to install python script plugin and, for the time being, avoid updating to npp 7.7 or newer unless PythonScript gets updated to reflect the changes made in npp7.7
                                          Once PS is installed you have to call it for every document, which by the way needs to be set to normal text, in which you want to see different languages colored once. Then select the text and use the language menu to chose the lexer of your choice. Done.

                                          Two remarks.
                                          UDLs are currently supported by a hack. When using an UDL the script opens a new tab, pastes the text, sets the udl lexer, gets the colors and closes the tab, whereas if using a builtin lexer a hidden scintilla component is used.

                                          Only foreground colors are supported, meaning no font settings like bold or italic. That is because indicators do not support these.
                                          Using indicators instead of styles has the advantage that switching
                                          between documents is possible without loosing the styling information.

                                          The script, which I will post in the next post, itself contains TESTDATA.
                                          If you want to use it, copy everything from line 291 to 360 and paste it into a new tab.

                                          Is it bug free? Most likely not.
                                          In case your finding something weird or in case it doesn’t do what you want it to do, let me know.
