Re: Adjust toolbar colour (v9)
Does 9.x not have per button the context menu option " Begin a G roup " anymore? In doubt you could set it for every button of every toolbar you have. This screenshot is from 8.4.2 where I need almost no toolbar and just added 4 most used actions right into the menu bar to not even waste s...

Re: Focus not switching to find/file open dialog boxes
Dialogs cannot be dismissed so the process has to be killed. How? You cannot use the mouse to focus the dialog window to then close it (pressing ESC or its X button on the upper right side)? If that means they're behind TextPad's main window, then just move and/or size the main window to reach the ...

Re: Own syntax file definition: keywords won't work
Let me copy text which is actually readible, copyable and can be zoomed into (in contrast to your screenshot that is too far zoomed out) - I marked two items red that might be interesting: Syntax Definition Files Syntax definition files contain the information TextPad uses to highlight keywords in d...

Re: Hang / crash on File Open
There is nothing wrong with any of those folders. YMMV. It could be some virtual folder (f.e. Google Drive), a network share, an unusual filesystem to begin with... You make it sound as if happens always - is that really so, or may your TWS folder just be often the same (or similar)? Have you tried...

Re: Ctrl-F to bring up find dialog when nothing highlighted
Oh, now I get what you want - I missed understanding that because finding the next match is in my logic unrelated to the current selection (and I was far more used to F3 doing exactly that: either asking me for the search to issue or continuing to the next match). So indeed you're looking for a comm...

Re: Save everything command
I cannot think of there being any issue with saving config data as well. Since you didn't provide an example of what "changed" setting is not saved for your scenario I can only assume you want an action to imitate closing TextPad without actually closing it, as settings (such as window po...

Re: How to "Cut Other-Bookmarked Lines" across multiple files in Workspace
That doesn't make sense: you're linking to a question concerning Notepad++, not TextPad.
In TextPad 8 you still have Search > Clear All Bookmarks (Ctrl+Shift+F2). And it may work across all documents you selected in View > Document Selector.

Re: Find/replace dialogs are offscreen
Yes, there is. Not only for TextPad, but for any window.

Re: My menu bar vanished
I tried all the function keys By default F10 should highlight the window menu in any program (not just TextPad). So does pressing (and releasing) Alt only. To get to the Preferences dialog window press (and release) Ctrl+Q and then P . In there click on the Keyboard node in the treeview on the left...

Re: Save/Save-As Folder List "Jump to" Help/Request
Most likely the same culprit as in Ctrl-A to Open Multiple Files : Try avoiding the themed dialog , because 9.x doesn't use Windows' native GUI anymore and as a result the 3rd party GUI provider hasn't fully imitated every aspect. Since the open/save dialog isn't Windows native anymore, the 3rd part...
