Maybe I don’t understand you, or I did it wrong, but I already created this issue:

Thanks. How will it work?

Has anyone else noticed that reloading a file with CTRL+R makes the code style and/or fold levels disappear until you refocus the tab?

This regression was initially blamed on the NppFTP plugin
until I reproduced it myself: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11585#issuecomment-1111979650

It appears to just keep the same background color of selection with the window in or out of focus. Thanks @donho !

Cheers.

The user defined syntax colors disappear after reloading the program by pressing Ctrl-R.
I have to click on the language again to make the syntax color active again.

@argyle-trees,
That will be fixed in the next release: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/9cc01de97c8d2a617c7ada7aba6854a9f7e1426b

Updated to Notepad++ 8.4 and still cannot save a XML file with ~46000 words - Notepad++ is not responding. When I copy all code and paste it in a new file I can save it. Using Symantec Encryption Desktop on my pc.

@i-am-connected,
The XML Tools plugin is probably the cause: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11603#issuecomment-1111879226

Hi!

The default colors of html and php codes in the editor do not work as expected.

@ffgmusik ,

The PHP lexer renders tag names using the Style Configurator > PHP > DEFAULT style. And the initial setting for that style is black text on white background, which is what your screenshot shows.

The HTML would render similar text slightly differently:

This is because it uses the HTML > TAG style for rendering tag names:

rdipardo

@ffgmusik,
previous Notepad++ versions did automatically activate HTML tag highlighting when opening PHP files (as well as *.asp and *.jsp files):

  else if ((type == L_HTML) || (type == L_PHP) || (type == L_ASP) || (type == L_JSP))
  {
     execute(SCI_SETLEXER, SCLEX_HTML);
     // ...
  }

The code providing this feature was accidentally removed during the Scintilla 5 upgrade, just before the 8.4 release. It will work again in the next release: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/commit/2fbac354ed00a7723b18f688f922a2ffb114cb13

Notepad++ 8.4 “Print Selection” is printing the selected text along with highlights as shown on screen making the print hard to read as it is black text with dark grey background on a black and white printer. We have uninstalled, and moved back to Notepad++ 8.3.3 and the issue is no longer present.

I found a problem with the scroll in version 8.4 and needed to go back to the previous version (8.3.3). I use a laptop and a touchpad. The page instead of going line by line, rolls several lines at the same time obstructing the view of the code. In version 8.3.3 this problem does not occur.
I have already changed the options in settings > preferences > editing and do not resolve.

@donho DON’T STAND UP FOR UKRAINE. Ukraine is by far the worst corrupt country in the world and is in the process of being thoroughly purged by Russia. Don’t interfere in the process. Kill corruption, child-trafficking and money-laundering.
