      Thanks for the update Don!

      I have a request to change the Hide Lines behavior.  It's easiest to explain with a concrete example.

      Let's say you want to hide lines 5-7.  If you highlight lines 5-7, the cursor is left at the beginning of line 8 and lines 5-8 are hidden.

      My request is that only lines that are highlighted be hidden so that you don't include the next line that the cursor is on if it is at the beginning of the line.

      Thank you,
      Bob Helling

      Thanks Don, very nice.

      One minor peeve - next time you make a change to the QuickText.ini file released with Notepad++, could you please keep blocks of QuickText in the same place? I have this file under SVN, but it was pointless using diff to merge in my old customisations for HTML because the HTML block had moved in the file - diff saw one big delete and one big add :(

      Kudos for a great editor.

      Hi Don,

      I am still having the C/C++ STRING style display problem with Notepad++ v4.3. Below please find the screenshots:

      Global Style - Global override (http://lh5.google.com/mychong6002/RvdmmslfGTI/AAAAAAAAACA/2g7ZhcGAgEE/global_style.jpg)
      C - STRING (http://lh6.google.com/mychong6002/Rvdmt8lfGUI/AAAAAAAAACM/bSNz6cvRs-k/c_string.jpg)
      C++ - STRING (http://lh4.google.com/mychong6002/RvdmvclfGVI/AAAAAAAAACU/t_dys5sVOOA/cpp_string.jpg)
      C sample source (http://lh5.google.com/mychong6002/RvdmwslfGWI/AAAAAAAAACc/qlPJs6edxs8/c_sample.jpg)

        That's normal behaviour.
        The global override style is applied for all displayed text, but not override the settings in styler configurator.

        If your text in edit view is not applied by the the font you set in global style, then it's a bug.

      Can you start incorporating the 64-bit shell-integration DLL that's offered here on the forum?  I don't expect you to make the whole program 64-bit or anything, but out-of-box shell integration would be nice on my x64 system.

      >>> If your text in edit view is not applied by the the font you set in global style, then it's a bug.

      Don, I did try to change the font thru the STRING style for C/C++, but to no avail. Could you please fix this problem in the next release?

      Thanks,

        I don't even know where is the bug.
        How can you expect that I fix the bug if you even don't take your time to describe the bug?

      Is the executable installer broken for the main download anybody else?  For every part of the installation, I get the error saying something is wrong with the particular file and you can abort, retry or ignore.

      It worked when I chose a different mirror though.

      Great work donho, i realy like this editor. ;)

      GREAT JOB! I finally see the issue of moving line up been fixed.

      Besides, Don, do you have any plan to make multi-line tab in the future? I would really appreciate it if it's in your plan. "<" and ">", or even tab list requires extra clicks. It would be nice if you can just click whichever tab you need without any "ctrl+..." or "click-click-click" actions. It's extremely useful when people are working on a dozen of files.

      Thank you and best wishes!!

      JC

      This could be me being stupid, but once I've used the 'Hide lines' feature, how do I get them back without having to reload the file?

      I have some user interface glitches when I start Notepad++ with the Function List plugin turned on.
