This request is SIX years old.
I am not sure who sees it. It is a problem for everyone and is a very
simple enhancement.

Does anyone address the problem with doing this ?

Thank you,

When editing in the middle of a page, I would like to scroll the line that the cursor is on to the top (or bottom) of the screen. I want to be able to compare two files by going back and forth with Ctrl+Tab and have the text in the same relative position. Now I have to move the cursor down the page ...

Any word ?
This one is killing me.
How about changing the color ?
Thanks,

I am very interested in having this feature.
I often Copy text from a webpage and then Paste the text
into TextPad.

I do a Reformat and each line extends to the width of my
screen (131). I want the longest line to be 72 characters.

Also, when I print I do not want the lines to wrap.

What is the status of this request ?
Could it be an option ?

At the bottom of the screen in the Status area the number of lines
selected is displayed and changes as more lines are selected.

I would like to see as part of the display, the length of the characters
selected. I would like to see it in decimal and in hex.

Easy to do.
Thanks,

Pete,

I tried an number of things but could not beat it.

I reinstalled and started a new workspace.
It has been working fine since.

Yes. I didn't dare ask.

It would need to be a very light color so as to not be distracting.
Maybe a change in font, italics, etc..

Thank you.

Could the "changed" indicator be placed at the front of the file name in the Document Selector instead of the end of the file name ? On long file names, the '*' is not seen without moving the mouse over it. If it was on the LEFT, all changed files would appear slightly indented and the '*' would be ...

OK, I guess that I will re-install and start from scratch. I never had a problem before so it must be something that I am doing here in the new environment. I will start with one file and build back up. Is there any kind of log that show what TP is trying to do at open workspace time ? Thank you ...

My .TWS file is in C:\!\Junk.tws I have a shortcut which opens this file. I used the same naming on the old system and have not moved the .tws on this system. I have tried to create several other named tws files but they have all been in the same folder. I use the ! marks for MY folders as opposed ...

Thank you for your help. The files are not read only. I open them, make changes and then do a "workspace save". I just looked at the .TWS file and it contains ALL of the files and appears to be the same format as the old one. I can see all of the files but do not know what the "other" characters are ...

I just bought a new XP machine. I had TextPad 4.5.0 on my old Win98/SE system. I had 24 files open on the old system and when I reboot and go back into TextPad all 24 files were reopened. Now, with XP and TextPad 4.7.2, when I open TextPad, only four of the files are opened and they are "normal ...

I have a VB program that I call from TextPad using Tools (Ctrl+1). I pass a parameter of '$Sel' which sends the selected text to my program. From the open text file I select text and then call the tool. My VB program takes an action based on the selected text that was passed. My question is: From my ...
