...or unselect any text before starting the search/replace dialog. How about you pay attention to which radiobutton of the "Scope" group has been chosen by TextPad? I'm quite sure that's what changes without knowledge. Oh, and you don't have to the long way to click on "Edit" and then "Select all ...

" New Vertical Tab Group " is the menu item caption when you display your documents in tabs (View > Document Tabs). " Tile Vertically " is the menu item caption when you have MDI windows which can be positioned and sized freely. Only the latter displays your configured shortcut, but they both work ...

SPACE and T are two character keys, while ALT is one of the shift/mode keys (other shift keys are the actual SHIFT, CTRL, ALT GR and sometimes even INS). So logic wise it doesn't make sense to press two character keys at once (it'd be like typing text and you could not predict if space or T comes ...

The problem is you only think about the "Open" dialog, but there are a couple of other ways to make TextPad read a file (drag'n'drop, shell extension, start parameter, Explorer filename extension association...) and none of them can ask you which of your multiple classes should be used. It'd be ...

No. You can install multiple TextPad versions in parallel, but it's still up to you to start and position the version as per you favorite monitor. Starting TextPad by doubleclicking on one of its associated file types still works like any other software: it is unrelated on which monitor the ...

Oh, now I get it. What https://yaytext.com/bold-italic achieves for a text like théâtre is to use combining characters that are meant to augment the preceding character (and as such to give one letter multiple additions, like diaresis and Cedille at the same time). But if you look close enough bot ...

Then I misjudged you for a longer time.

I found Ability to limit Find/Replace scope to bookmarked lines from 2003-10-26 - if it hasn't been implemented in ~18 years I'm somewhat pessimistic it will ever be.

Although this is nearly 18 years old I also vote for "bookmarks" as a new scope in the search/replace dialog: it would be nice to perform everything only on bookmarked lines. Enhanced example: I've bookmarked line 1, 3 and 8. When searching with a regex over two lines it should match either lines 1 ...

Ben, as a longtime low priority goal: could "bookmarked lines" be a new search/replace scope? I'd use this to simulate multiple text selections instead of only having one.

I bet that is not the regex you wanted to post, because without the backslashes you surely are unable to get numbers. See This phpBB installation falls apart . Your regex might match its result itself (think about it: you remove potential leading and trailing non-numbers, to then have a clean number ...

Windows 10 no longer has the dialog to pick your favorite icon per file type. You either have to look for 3rd party tools letting you do that (i.e. FileTypesMan ), or you do that directly thru the Registry (which is how it worked since Win95). you seem to have disabled BBCode formatting in your ...
