C:\Users\---\AppData\Roaming\Helios\TextPad\8\ConfigState.xml
contains entries for document classes in this format ...

Code: Select all

<class name="Text" type="2">
  <value name="Members" type="collection">
    <element>*.</element>
    <element>*.TXT</element>
    <element>*.INI</element>
    ...
This matches what we see in Preferences / Document Classes.
So, the test is currently restricted to the filename.suffix.

Please widen the test to allow the file path to be included.

I have my doubts, yet this is not a fully wrong suggestion.

I just want to add: it doesn't even need to change the UI and can at first only be available through editing the XML configuration file. Don't mind people only being able to click to set preferences - leave that for later.
