      Is NppTools.dll also not part of the standard package?  Don't see it in your list of plugins...

      Best rgds,

        Its the Base 64 encode/decoder which is listed (I find the naming a bit confusing myself)

      "Notepad++ v4.7.4 fixed bugs and added features (from v4.7.4) :"

      There is a little mistake. The changelog refer to which version? It can't be 4.7.4 (from 4.7.4).

      Thanks in advance.

      Hello Don,

      there is a small bug in line length calculation. If I try to show the additional CR or LF chars, the CR/LF char isn't visible in longest row.

      Maybe calculation could be increment by 2 for preventing this display issue?

      Best Regards
      Jens

        What is also funny, but this may just help you Jens, it that you can infinitely click on the right arrow of the scroll bar. It will further scroll the document's contents to the left, also the last CR/LF, and way beyond!

        You can scroll all the way back by using the left arrow, but a click on the scroll bar itself will immediately return it to show what it was intended to show from that position. Of course, you will lose the last CR/LF again, then.

        I noticed that too when I changed the scrollbar, but Scintilla ignores CR/LF when calculating length. The problem is, i do not know of any method to accuratly determine the size of the CR/LF icons. You could add an empty margin of a constant size (20px orso) but theres still a chance it wont fit (if you zoom in for example). I thought leaving it as is and making use of the unlimited scroll by using the arrow would be better.

        Disclaimer: since recent posts show that people tend to get 'aggressive' when some personal preference is applied, let me say that the whole point of the new scrollbar was to avoid using constants that would get inaccurate in some or many cases.

        My 2 cents
