****************************************************************** * * * ExtSettings plugin v1.3.1 for Notepad++ * * Builds for 32 and 64 bits Notepad++ installations available * * * * Author: Andreas Heim, 2019 - 2023 * * * ****************************************************************** ============ Features ============ This plugin provides the ability to configure some Scintilla settings which are normally not available via the preferences dialog of Notepad++. It adds a button to the toolbar of Notepad++ to open its main dialog. Included settings: * Toggle unindenting of whitespace at line start using backspace key. * Set indentation guide lines style. * Set white space indicator style and size. * Set additional upper and lower line spacing. * Toggle line drawing under first line of folded code block. * Show text tag to the right of first line of a folded code block (optionally displayed in a box). * Toggle extend selection highlighting up to right hand border of editor window. * Set color of selected text. * Set alpha value to draw selection highlighting translucently. * Configure smart highlighting matches. * Toggle allow caret placing beyond line endings (even for older versions of Notepad++). * Toggle caret wrapping to end of previous line when pressing Left Arrow key at line start (Notepad++ v7.7 and higher). * Activate sticky caret mode. * Set line wrapping mode (none, at word boundaries, at any character, at whitespace characters). * Set which markers should be displayed on line wrapping (at end or start of subline of a wrapped line, in line numbers margin). * Toggle whether line wrapping markers should be displayed near text of subline end and/or subline start. * Toggle multiple pasting into multiple selections. * Toggle end-of-line conversion when pasting. * Set magnification for printing. Full functionality only is available in Notepad++ v7.8 and above. In earlier versions, there are some options that are not supported by the older version of Scintilla used there. They will be greyed out or invisible. ================= Installation ================= The necessary steps depend on the version of Notepad++ you use.
