    unfortunately it looks like a bug.
    A “per npp start” workaround is to uncheck the default quote in settings dialog and define it as user defined,
    but as soon as you restart it doesn’t work again.
    Another solution might be to use a python script to do the auto inserts.
    Could look like this

    dict_complete_char = {'"':'"','(':')','{':'}'} def callback_CHARADDED(args): if(args.has_key('ch')): if dict_complete_char.get(chr(args['ch'])): editor.insertText(editor.getCurrentPos(), dict_complete_char.get(chr(args['ch']))) editor.clearCallbacks([SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED]); editor.callback(callback_CHARADDED, [SCINTILLANOTIFICATION.CHARADDED])

    In dict_complete_char you would define the pairs which should be inserted.

    Cheers

    Thanks Peter for your thinking
    So you mean that if the number is greater than 128 could mean that 128 added is replaceBySpace = yes?

    well i try to use only the value 6 instead of 128 + 6 :D

    UPDATE
    YESSSSS thanks Peter and Claudia for helping me!
    it’s exactly as you (and me) told
    128 + number means
    replaceBySpace = yes

    only the number of tabs i want means
    replaceBySpace = no

    so i used tabSettings=“6” and worked perfectly!

    thanks again guys!

    regards

    Simon

    Goto Settings->Style Configurator
    Select Global Styles under language
    select Default Style under style
    Change the font. You should see the changes immediately.
    If this solves the issue then the font which was used is broken.

    Hi Evrard,

    when you are saying

    Then I go to verify the page

    what exactly does this mean? You open the browser and load your file?
    You copy the file over to your webserver and then you are using a browser to verify?
    If so, do you use ftp to do this?

    You’re fishing in muddy waters? Good, this is where live the bigger fishes!

    No sharks, except wiresharks, please. ;-)

    A small disadvantage is, that it doesn’t work as simple as for example Microsoft Excel. In Excel it’s one step: Select the row, or cell, and activate Frees Panes. The work-around involves 5 steps, I didn’t mention the synchronize horizontal scrolling.
    I would like to select a row, right-click and freeze above, or freeze under. (or insert a small narrow separator)

    The big disadvantage is that big gray separator. It’s not nice, and it’s sometimes hard to see where a header is pointing to.

    @Michael-Bernhardt

    a python script could, temporarily, write a descriptive ruler as first line and keep it always visible.
    It could reformat the doc to have it more columnized or …

    Or it could overwrite a statusbar section. E.g the DOCTYPE section, the leftmost section on the bottom to show the current column
    or it could use npps second view to display it.

    If you are willing to install python script plugin I could try to write a script which does what you want.
    If so, please let me know what exactly should be done.

    Cheers

    I had lots of trouble with getting custom colors to work too. Today I finally found out the cause is due to using global defaults. Global defaults, I think, are supposed to be applied across all schemes, but I suspect when there are specific settings that are not defined in the global set, specific color schemes “bleed through”. So say you have a custom language setting for your favorite language Z#++ and a keyword defined for “iffin”, as in:
    iffin (thissaHappened) {

    }

    Since “iffin” is not already defined in Globals the color you set for “iffin” shows through. Just a speculation, but it seems to follow what I’m seeing.

    Here is what I did to get specific language defs to work:
    . Select theme: Default.xml
    . Set Language: Global Styles
    . Set Style: Global override
    . Turn off ALL global settings. You can leave the font selection enabled since that doesn’t affect colors.
    . Click Save & Close
    . Now go into Settings > Style Configurator and select your language-specific settings. When you make changes they will be visible in the editor.

    does your language support block comments?

    Notepad++ doesn’t have a java decompiler builtin, you need to download one.

    Yes, I have it set to WYSIWYG, but I think that refers only to color options, not font spacing. As you suggest, a monospace font may be the best workaround.

    @Claudia-Frank Yes, I’m absolutely positive it’s the same file I worked on. I have about 4-5 tabs open in notepad; each for separate things I write. Neither of the other tabs have my lost text in them. As for the USB, I don’t use one for back up, though for situations like this, it looks like I may have to start doing that, hah… But yeah, I don’t have any backups I’ve created myself. Just that I figured with the crash, notepad would put my unsaved text in the backup folder, but seems like it didn’t.

    But from what I can tell, my text is lost and there’s no way of getting it back, so looks like I have to suck up the lost and start over. =(

    Regardless, thank you.

    NPP determines the language from the file’s extension. If you open a .cpp file, it’s content will be highlighted according to C++ rules.

    If you start a new file, NPP has no means to find out what highlighting rules to apply. In this case you have two options: a) Select your Language from the Menu labeled “Language” or b) save your file with an appropriate extension.
