Patch #1747973 File-Edit-View-History Enhancement should be the thing you are looking for! The patch is already closed but not implemented. It's a major change for the old Notepad++ version 4.1.2

I think he means to save for all files open (or opened) the location of the cursor the moment that file lost focus (or was deleted and later re-opened again).
The former one is doable, I guess, the latter one, well... that's most probably another story...

I don't think if it is what Nobody says, but a good thinks could be to insert a mark at the last place of cursor before doing a find: indeed often you I use a find to know if something is in my source code or I use a volatile find to know the type or the use of my variable or using function list or using find in files... and often I want to come back to my original cursor position. Sometime I thinks to place a bookmark but often not, so it coul be interesting to insert a mark with a quick to go F4 may be.
I hope that my explanation are clear enough (but I am not sure). Don't hesitate to ask precision if you want.
Such type of thing is implemented in the microcontroller IDE named µVision developed by Keil Company (they use a blue arrow).
Thanks a lot

i would LOVE this option. my programming language (business rules!) when it calls the editor (N++) assigned, it tells it to pull the same file up, which resets the pointer back to the top of the file everytime... very annoying... currently i use the second view (cause it does not get reset) and/or use bookmarks and just jump back to the bookmark... but I LOVE the idea of having a REMBMER LAST POSITION IN FILE option... that would be cuper convient.

Same problem here. I accidently hit Enter on a file in Explorer, which I had already opened in Notepad++. The file is in my session and because of that always has some text selected, which makes it very convenient to copy each time. Now, because I opened the file again, I lost my selection. I think it would be a good thing if Notepad++ would bring the file to the front, nothing else, if it is already open.

Plz add function "remember last position cursore in file". This function have many others editors.
Sorry for my English. :)

What do you mean "remember last position cursore in file"?

I mean:
Position of cursore after open file = position before closed this file.

OK I see.
It's already done for the session.
I won't work on it for the recent opened files history (ie. close a file then open it right away).
