      Hi all,

      Recently I noticed that Find All in Current Document, also Find All in All Open Documents were no longer working - that is to say that no window is created with the results.

      I don’t have a record of what Notepad ++ version introduced these bugs, but I’m now running version 6.8.1.

      Regards,
      Leigh

          Hmm… Here’s what I do using 6.8.2 on windows 7.

          1. Macro > Start
          2. Searc Find. Then “Find What” ToDo:" Click “Find All in Current Documents”
          3. Macro > Stop
          4. Macro > Save Current recorded macro = List TODO

          when I then run “list todo” nothing happens

            Maybe, macros are just related to the text editing control itself?

              Hello Leigh, h-h-h-h and Gary,

              Indeed, the Find All in Current Document action is NOT recordable, in macros, even if the Find Results panel was previously opened :-((

              Just have a look to these two old posts, on SourceForge, about that topic, where I give a work-around to that wrong behaviour :

              http://sourceforge.net/p/notepad-plus/discussion/331754/thread/59fa8ac6/#dced

              http://sourceforge.net/p/notepad-plus/discussion/1290590/thread/86ea7a57/#33e5

              Hope it’ll be useful to you !

              Best Regards,

              guy038

                The original post is not talking about macros.

                  I have just had a Eureka moment!

                  I just discovered a minimized window that was only a few pixels square. When I maximized it - I could see all the results from Find All in Current Document.

                  So what I thought was a bug, was not.

                    This just happened to me on 7.4.2. The reason was I have 2 monitors and I had just switched monitor 2 to be the main display. For some reason this prevented the popup window for the search results to open. Once I changed it back the find command worked again.
