    @dinkumoil said in Notepad++ 7.8.1 Release Candidate:

    I use a 2-monitor setup in extended desktop mode and run Notepad++ on second monitor. When downloading plugins, the progress bar dialog pops up at the first monitor. If there are other windows open (e.g. Explorer window) placed in the center of the screen, the download progress bar is hidden by these windows.

    Maybe Add download progress bar while download plugin(s). should not be here because it’s the enhancement in WinGUp but not in Notepad++.
    I put it here because Notepad++ present the whole solution including the used components, and the most of people download the installer.

        Hello everyone!
        This option does not work for me (Notepad++ 7.8.1 on x32 and x64 versions)
        “Use Monospaced font in Find dialog (Need to restart Notepad++)”

          The real problem is that the setting seems not to be stored in the settings file.

          Steps to reproduce

          1. Start Notepad++
          2. As the first step open Preferences dialog and activate option Use Monospaced font in Find dialog.
          3. After that you can open Find dialog and you will see that the text in the input field is displayed with a monospaced font.
          4. Close Notepad++.
          5. Reopen Notepad++ and go to Preferences dialog to check option Use Monospaced font in Find dialog. The option will be unchecked and the text in the input field of the Find dialog will be displayed with a proportional font.

            Continuation

            The setting gets stored in the settings file but IMO the code to restore the setting at program startup is wrong.

            It could be related to this piece of code

            if (optNameMonoFont && !lstrcmp(optNameMonoFont, TEXT("no"))) 
              _nppGUI._monospacedFontFinfDlg = false; 
            

            and this one

            bool _monospacedFontFinfDlg = false;
            

            IMO the first block should be

            if (optNameMonoFont && !lstrcmp(optNameMonoFont, TEXT("yes"))) 
              _nppGUI._monospacedFontFinfDlg = true; 
            

            to apply the setting’s data from the settings file and to keep the option off as default.

              I don’t think it’s a regression, but it’s a bug for sure.
              Could you create an issue on Notepad++ GitHub issues tracker ?

                Thank you for heads up. The fix will be included in the new release:

                  If you select None for Folder Margin Style in the Find result list the left margin contains uppercase characters. It would be a good idea to keep margin style even if folder margin style is disabled for the main window? Screenshot below:
