@Long-Lăng-Hoàng , welcome to the Forum (at least for your first post),

This community forum is a great place for discussing problems, and asking how to do something, or asking what you’re doing wrong to get a strange behavior, or for finding workarounds to bugs and other issues that aren’t going to be “fixed”/changed.

But if you want a bug fixed in the actual Notepad++ codebase, then this FAQ explains where the best place is to submit such requests. When you do submit an issue as described there, make sure you include screenshots of the “good” rendering and the “bad” rendering. Also, posting a link to the issue here in this topic would be nice, so others can see the progress of your issue.

I still feel that backup of a file should be deleted when the file is closed in npp.

Pretty sure N++ plays it cautiously. Some people are going to want those backups. Closing a file in N++ doesn’t mean in general you don’t want it or its history any longer. A better case could be made for removing backups if you use N++ to delete a file or move it to recycle bin.

Maybe try the Edit menu’s Begin/End Select command. Execute it once at the top of the block you intend to select, move to bottom of desired block, execute Begin/End Select again.

btw, as you use a portable version anyways:

you could try out the portable version of notepad++ 7.6.3 from >>> here <<< extract it to a new folder, and update dspellcheck.
on 7.6.3 run `plugins > plugins admin > updates" and update dspellcheck to 1.4.9
(note: “plugins admin” is only available on portable notepad++ since version 7.6.2)

if dspellcheck is the cause of your issue, you can also update to dspellcheck 1.4.10 manually from >>> here <<< and retry.

if technical informations are of interest to you, you can re-read following dspellcheck issues, based on the research of @guy038 :

Thanks.
Your last line says it all…

thank you for your time and excellent and helpful explanation @Joseph

The document (plain text file) in question is NOT opened by another app but it is cloned to a separate window.

if you are using notepad++ in multi instance with auto backup enabled, it is very important that you don’t open the same document in two notepad++ windows, as they are separate processes and neither one is aware of what has been done at the other window.

instead you should use only one notepad++ window and clone it to the second view:
right click on your document tab, and select clone to other view as seen at the screenshot below.

Imgur

now both copies are using the same notepad++ process, and if you start typing, you will see that both, left and right copies, are synchronised without even saving them.

note: if you want to see the unsynced original statically, for comparison purposes, you can copy it’s content to a new document tab on the second view, so that you can have a look at it any time.

it is also recommended that you disable multi instance completely, if you often have to do this.
go to settings > preferences > multi-instance and set it to default (mono-instance) as seen at the screenshot below.

this way a document will always open as a tab at the existing notepad++ process.

Hello, @angelica-sarina,

I don’t really understand how your search/replacement could have gotten rid of all the line-breaks !

Indeed, assuming the input text, below :

Open the Replace dialog Ctrl + H

Type in a single space character, in the Find what: zone

Type in a , character, in the Replace with: zone

Select the Normal search mode

Click on the Replace All button

And you obtain the output :

Now, if your numbers may be separated by more than one space, as below :

Here is a second solution :

Open the Replace dialog Ctrl + H

Type in a \x20+ character, in the Find what: zone

Type in a , character, in the Replace with: zone

Select the Regular expression search mode

Click on the Replace All button

And, magically, you get the expected output :

Best Regards,

Welcome to the forum, and to Notepad++.

When editing an HTML file, you don’t just paste it in a browser (like IE or Chrome or Edge or Firefox): you have to open the file in the browser.

If you want to see what your local copy looks like, after saving it in Notepad++, you should be able to go to the menu Run > Launch in IE (or Chrome, Edge, Firefox – this recent post by @Meta-Chuh explains how to add the launch-in-edge to that menu). Alternately, open your browser, and use the File > Open menu (or equivalent – often, Ctrl+O will bring up the Open dialog) to browse your local computer to find the saved HTML file, and open it.

If you want to view it on your webserver, you will have to start by uploading the file to the webserver – you can use an external program like FileZilla, or use the NppFTP plugin for Notepad++. Once it’s on your webserver, then you just need to go to the appropriate URL in your browser of choice.

welcome to the notepad++ community, @josip

thanks for your video, it might win this year’s academy award for best editing 😂.

yes, you are correct, i can reproduce this on a windows 10 pro x64 machine using the latest notepad++ 7.6.3 x64 and x86 under the following conditions:

this happens if you use the task view switcher to move notepad++ to a virtual second desktop, as well as to a physical desktop.

if anyone wants to see something funny:
once reproduced, disable document map. now everything looks normal and you can click at the position where the shadow was left, nothing will happen.
now re-enable document map, and booom … notepad++ is on one screen, and the clickable shadow is back on the other screen.

now to what you can do, if it is of relevance to you:

if you want to file this issue to the developers, please read and follow the community guide for bug reports: >>> FAQ Desk: Feature Request or Bug Report <<< to submit a notepad++ issue at github.
