This appears to have been handled in the latest release. Thanks!

I really appreciate that Find in Files works as a separate session now allowing me to continue to work in the main editor while it is running. However, I would love to see some sort of status bar or moving file list as the search is working. This used to appear in the status line during the search ...

When Find in Files is running, if the regular Find is requested, TextPad locks up. Even though I know this, I sometimes accidentally try it anyway. Can you please disable the regular Find option while Find in Files is running or prompt to stop the Find in Files operation when the regular Find ...

Upon a suggestion that this become a poll, this is a re-posting of a previous message: I would love to the Search box have the same ability to limit the scope of the search as the Replace box. Specifically, Active Document, Selected Text, and All Documents (which is already available). In addition ...

For some reason, in one of the updates in the past couple years, this feature is disabled if the Document Tabs option is on. Once you turn this option off, Tiled windows can be synchronized.

I second this request. I've needed to do something like this repeatedly, and this would fit the bill nicely.

You will need to change the "Word wrap long lines" and "Word break at column number" settings in the Document Classes section of the Configuration Preferences menu.

That is really excellent. Thanks for the help. I had not considered trying to do something like this, but this should work perfectly. I've already made a new macro containing these search strings, and I'm happy with the results.

Yes ... I realize that, but I am hoping to have the option to ignore anything contained within a set of delimiters even if it is highlighted. Items within quotes are often set to be a certain case intentionally; if these were changed, the code may work differently or not at all. The ability to ...

I'd like the ability to limit the text to be changed when using any of the "Change Case" features to only text outside of quotes (single / double). There may be other delimiters that would be desired as well, so a configurable option would really be an even better feature.

I would love to the Search box have the same ability to limit the scope of the search as the Replace box. Specifically, Active Document, Selected Text, and All Documents (which is already available). In addition, when using All Documents, it should jump to the next document when using Find Next ...

That would be a great enhancement. I don't know how many times I have clicked on the text found only to see that it is in a commented section of code. If you could see 3 or 4 lines before and after, that would greatly reduce that problem.

Just after I made the last post, I had a thought that this may have been caused by the file type association. I looked at the Edit and Open actions and found this: "C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe" -s %1 I then tried changing it to this: "C:\Program Files\TextPad 5\TextPad.exe" -s "%1" and ...

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried that option both ways, and they each have their set of problems. With the option turned on, double-clicking a file with spaces in the name or folder gives the error I described originally. With the option turned off, when multiple files are clicked, and you ...

Using TP 5.2, I am having a problem opening files using a double-click if the filename or folder contains spaces. When doing so, I see a series of error messages "OK to create" followed by a folder name and a portion of the filename I am trying to open. If TP is already open, no such error messages ...
