    Hi,

    Is it possible to use virtual spaces in NP++?  So far, I couldn't find any direct setting to do that.

      I don't think virtual space is supported yet.  Maybe in a later version.  --Joel

        Thanks for the answer, Joel.

        So far, I find it one of the "big missing things" in NotePad++.

        If virtual spaces would be there, it would make life much more easy.  Things like selecting a block would not be blocked any more by the shortest line in the block selection, you could go down to the next line on the same character position, even if the next line was empty, and so on...

        I think there are a tig amount of situations where virtual spaces would come in very, very handy.

        I indeed really hope it will be one of the next *big* improvements of NotePad++.

        It would make the total picture even more complete...

        Best rgds,

            This is a showstopper for me. I'll take the hit to load Visual Studio for every file, given how often I use virtual spaces.
