<![CDATA[nppgzipfileviewer - improvements request]]>Hi,
I am successfully using the nppgzipfileviewer plugin to edit in Notepad++ some files with gzip content (extension .flynz) that i generate and process in my PHP project.
Thanks to Pascal for the plugin :)
I have 2 requests :

  1. A tiny annoyance when i open the compress (or decompress) pop-up : I use a laptop plus an external 4K monitor and the pop-up is displayed partly outside of my latop screen. I can’t grab it with the mouse and i need to use [alt+space -> Move -> Arrow keys] to move it inside.
    Don’t know if it’s a N++ core feature or a plugin one, but could that be fixed ?

  2. Is there a way (and if not, that is a request to develop that feature) to associate a file extension (.flynz in my case) with an automatic gzip decompression/compression at the loading/saving of a file ?

I have never used that plugin. But when I went to their homepage (https://github.com/Pascal-Krenckel/NppGZipFileViewer), they say, “This plugin is deprecated, please switch to CompressedFileViewer.”

Once an author deprecates a plugin, there won’t be support for requests.

I have put in a request to ask that the author remove the deprecated plugin from the Plugins Admin list (and, if they want, to add the replacement plugin into the list).

But you should try their replacement plugin. And if it doesn’t improve your experience, you can go to the CompressedFileViewer’s issue tracker (https://github.com/Pascal-Krenckel/CompressedFileViewer/issues), and make your request(s) there.
