How by double mouse left click select all symbols and signs between begin string, ", " or space and end string, ", " or "."? Hello.

@qwe ,

What do you mean by “between space and end string”?

qwe

@PeterJones , hi.

Don’t unerstand that mean “end string” or end line?

PeterJones

@qwe ,

Don’t unerstand that mean “end string” or end line?

That’s not universal.

For example, if you were editing code for a programming language and the line

   print("the quick brown fox\n");

you might consider the fox\n to be the end of the string (that is, the " ends the string, so the characters before the quote are the end of the string), while doing a highlight or search-and-replace or what have you.

Or others might consider their whole document one string, and mean “end of the file” when they say “end string”

Or you might have meant the literal word end as a string (so asking “how do i select from a space to the literal string end” in order to find out how to select here to end in the line this line goes from here to the end, so do what I meant)

Any of those are valid interpretations of the phrase you used.

----

To answer what I believe is your question:

To “select from here to the end of the line”, you cannot do it with a simple double-click action, sorry. However, going to Settings > Shortcut Mapper > Scintilla Commands, setting Filter: to SCI_LINEENDEXTEND, and then Modify the shortcut for SCI_LINEENDEXTEND to be a keystroke you can remember, and now you can just use that keystroke to select from the current caret position (where your vertical | typing cursor/caret is) to the end of the current line of text.

Please, put together a coherent posting.
Good posting receives good replies.

You cannot do it with a double mouse left click. So the answer to “how” is “you cannot”. There is no better answer.

To be kind to you, I tried to supply a workaround for one of the cases you indicated (place your cursor after the space, use the new shortcut to select to end of line). But you seem to not like that when you asked me to re-read the topic (and trust me, I’ve read every word you wrote many times; I answered to the best of my understanding).
Since you decided to not provide more details as to why that wasn’t sufficient, I will not be able to help you with this any more.

Maybe if you’re able to explain things in a different way, or maybe after some time for others to come and read this discussion, someone else will be able to understand what you want and give you more workarounds.

But I cannot emphasize enough that, for your question as phrased in the title, “how by double mouse left click select…”, the answer is “you cannot by a double mouse left click.”

Even with additional these clicks key “control”?

Notepad++ has not implemented such a feature, or such customizability. Notepad++, without plugins, does not give the ability to customize the low-level behavior like double-click.

If you had the skills, it might be possible for you to implement a plugin that gave you that feature, or for you to use an existing plugin’s scripting capability to implement such a feature. But such tasks are not for the faint of heart and can be quite complicated. If you go down that route: good luck (but I won’t be able to help you).

To sum up: Notepad++ does not have this feature. If you have programming skills, you might be able to figure out how to do it in a plugin you write or a script you write for an existing plugin.

and now you can just use that keystroke to select from the current caret position (where your vertical | typing cursor/caret is) to the end of the current line of text.

But this can make by keys shift+end.

So then just use that. Or if it doesn’t meet your needs, then don’t use it. It’s up to you.

I have done all I can to help you, and wish you the best of luck in your future Notepad++ use.

Then, if without plugin not exit can do transfer this topic in section “plugin development”, adding in title “ctrl +” (how by ctrl + double mouse…)?

@qwe Here are two ways that will help you get high quality advice from people here.

Write your problem description in your language, and use a translator, and post the translation. Use short complete sentences. Use common words.
Include beautiful examples, something like:

I want to be able to Ctl + double click at point 1 and have all text between point 1 and point 2 selected.

 sodfi ] ++ " sduin sdyj  ksd  " sdui   djjdff ` %%
          1                   2

(My example is nonsense. Just pay attention to the presentation.)

Limit exhausted, why section “delimiter” not naming limiters?
And not easier was would done it limiters how regulars expressions?
And, perhaps, overssuum up, -, :).
