Column mode not working
-
Hi.
When i press the ALT+SHIFT+<arrow_key>, nothing happens.
Using ALT+<Mouse_Selection> works fine.What could be the problem?
I’m using v7.9.5 (64-bit) on Windows 10. This is a brand new installation of Notepad++, so i have not customized anything yet.Thanks

It works fine for me. Are you using the “true” arrow key or are you using the Number pad arrow key (that won’t work).
From https://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaHistory.html:
“On Win32, the numeric keypad with Alt pressed can be used to enter characters by number. This can produce unexpected results in non-numlock mode when function keys are assigned. Potentially problematic keys like Alt+KeypadUp are now ignored. Bug #2152.”
Cheers.

Hi @Michael-Vincent
My laptop is a Dell XPS and does NOT have a number pad.
On a different laptop, pressing ALT+SHIFT+<arrow_key> works fine.
Is there any way to enable some sort of debugging?Thanks

ok… i figured it out.
It looks like I had the Windows Magnifier running and it was intercepting the
ALT+SHIFT+<arrow-key>Exiting the Windows Magnifier fixed the issue.
