      Hi all,

      I’d like to implement a plugin and two functions for my working.
      I think it can let me work quickly.

      like this:

      1. alt text

      2. alt text
        Then I highlight particular string, it can show more information.

      Is it possible?
      If it can, please give me a hint, example code or docments.

      Thanks a lot

        @John-Huang ,

        Yes, it is possible to write a plugin that gives extra information in a popup window.

        I believe that a good example project might be the TagLEET plugin, with the original source code here or @Michael-Vincent’s fork here – although that’s a more-complicated popup window than the one you had in your screenshot.

        I believe a simpler version could be implemented using the Scintilla feature “calltips” (where Sctintilla is the code library that Notepad++ uses to implement the editor portion of Notepad++, so you have access to all Scintilla features in your plugin.)
