About to replace text pad. Annoying problems Ver 7

SELVOL · Post by **SELVOL** » Sun May 26, 2013 10:23 pm

TextPad context menu opens TextPad, but doesn't open the file I selected.
TextPad now Displays "Find in Files" Results on 1 line....

Since I updated to Ver.7 These to problems have become.

Image "Find in Files" results on 1 line.
They are pretty much worthless at that point.

"I have about the same setup and just tried it without problems."
Wish I had no problems......

Let me put some more info out here.
Only after I encountered the problem in Ver 6 where
"Find in files" would not show up at all.
I changed to ver 7.
I had to a Manual transfer of my saved macros and clips.

as 7 did not do this for me.......

No I am having the problem of clicking on a NON Associated file extension
either by click click or context menu where the file does not open.

Why don't I just associate that file type.
Someone might ask.
I come across 100's of different file extension a week.
Yes I would eventually associate them all.

The major problem is
TextPad now Displays "Find in Files" Results on 1 line....

Thank you

Running 7.0.7 on Win7SP1.

I just double-clicked in Explorer on a (text) file with a non-standard extension, got the Windows dialog that said it couldn't open the file, clicked the "Select a program from the list of installed programs" option, chose Textpad, and the file was opened normally.

Sorry, can't replicate.

What version of TP did you have running before? And just trying to get as much detail as possible, you upgraded from that version directly to TP 7.0.7?

OK, I may understand this better, and I believe I can reproduce it or a related problem.

I created File1.txt

239478823498=
213984729837489723847=
234987239847982734987=

And File2.txt

([0-9]{14})=
537498572975
23984792873498273849=
213984729837482

I simplified the RE slightly, but it does not make any difference.

Doing a File In Files
Find what: [0-9]{14}=
In files: *.* (as you found, * or *.* produces the same results)
I get this:
