Stop 'file changed' pop up

    How do I get NP++ to not pop up the 'file has changed' dialog and either ignore the change or reload the file automatically?  The files I have open are often being changed by outside programs and either one of these other modes is way more useful to me.

      Settings: Preferences: MISC: File Status Auto-detection.  Between the two check boxes, you should get whichever mode you prefer.

      Regards.

        is there any way notepad++ will refresh automatically without having to lose focus first and then switch back again?

      Aha, that's it.   Great!

      Are there keyboard shortcuts to control these functions by any chance?  It would be nice to stop the file autoloading while checking something and then go back to autoloading, for instance.

      Thanks!
