I think the sense of that suggestion is even smaller than the suggestion itself.
Where's the use in that checkbox, since we're enabling/disabling line wrap in the menu or via shortcut!
PS: BTW the new line wrap mode 'Aligned' is kicking ass.. I love it !!

Its good to have search n replace steps in macro.
but it is annoying clicking OK button of replace counter alert box.
Its better to send the replace counter result in search result window
Replace "y" with "z" (5 hits in 2 files)
(just like Search "x" (5 hits in 2 files))
this way we can see how many occurrences got replaced without clicking
clicking is not favoured while playing macros.
I have 2000 symbols to be replaced everyday, for this i use text crawler.

I know… Now that the feature in is released code, I'll post a patch about result feedback - basically allowing for three feedback modes:
1/ message boxes (current)
2/ status bar in FR dialog (TextFX's way)
3/ no feedback
with a checkbox to auto switch to No feedback on macro replays.
Would that be fine?

Thank you for the suggestions. However, Line wrap is needed on the toolbar. Personally I don't use shorcuts and I need to swich on/off line wrap all the time. Therefore I prefer to keep it on toolbar and menu but not in Preferences dialog.

I go for 3 but no checkbox.
The checkbox for the macro feature has nothing to do with Find / Replace feature. Add it in the Find/Replace dialog might be confused for other users.

But i have аnother proposal and very necessary.
Function Save/Open **SESSION ** - Is it possible to make own (*.np++) recognizable format? I have many projects in different folders.
This is inconvenient when opening.
I want to run by simply double-clicking on the file of the project (session).

There should be feedback
but if it is in statusbar, then second replace feeback will overwrite the first one and only last replace counter will be available in statusbar.
but if it is moved to search result windows then it has better presentation of each replace item.

Seems the Folding Margin do not work on PHP, but work in Javascript.
No matter what folding margin type i use (box tree, circle tree, simple, arrow), there is no folding icon show in the margin for PHP.

I wasn't clear enough. While the three choice option would be on the dialog, since depending on context a user may wish to change it on the fly, the checkbox about suppressing feedback on macro playback is more of a style thing and should appear in Preferences -> MISC.
Granted, that tab is full already. But the recent changes have made the Edit tab hollow, and I think the Vertical edge and Clckable link settings would be welcome to move there from MISC. This way, MISC has enough room for a Find/Replace options groupbox. If you look at IdeaTorrent, you"'ll see that many users have ideas for more options for the dialog.

Using Ctrl-F3 seems to do a volatile search (it is not remembered when you then press F3) - which is different from what my 5.7 was doing. I really rely on Ctrl-F3 being remembered for future searches.
Many thanks, david

The change took place quite a few versions ago. The default has been for Ctrl-F3 to bind to Select and Find next. Find (volatile) Next has been moved to Ctrl-Alt-F3.
Of course, you can use the Shortcut mapper to change these defaults to mimick the earlier behaviour, or anything else. Can you double check?

Yes :)
i should have said, i also checked my macros… Ctrl-F3 and Ctrl-Alt-F3 (and their shifts) are bound to the persistant and volatile finds, but both are the same (volatile) when actually carried out. when i tried setting the persistent-find macro to something else (Ctrl-Alt-Shift-F12) that key-combo still results in non-persistent behaviour, on mine

Reported on the German forum - saving as encoding ISO8859-16 always saves a 0 length file. Many people have confirmed it.

I just installed a fresh copy of 5.7.1RC.
I opened the Change log, and did the following:
1/ Search for "file". Result as expected
2/ Double-clicked "Fix" and hit Find (Volattile) Next from the menu. First instance of Fix selected
3/ Hit "Find Next" from menu: the next instance of "file" got selected.
This is the expected behaviour. How does your search sequence depart from this script, and how do the results?

The ISO8859-16 problem is a Windows problem. Notepad++ uses Unicode internally and conversion between codepages and Unicode is done by a system function. Some codepages listed in the menu may not be supported by the OS; the following report an error on my system: ISO8859-3/6/8/10/11/14/16 and OEM720/858/862. Currently Notepad++ does not report the error; and this should be reported as a bug. If we need some encodings not supported by OS, it should be in feature requests, not in bug reports.

There is a bug introduced in 5.7.1RC, not present in 5.7, nor in my modified version (including my patch for load/save corruption). The bug is related to the new SciLexer.dll; not certain if the bug is in Scintilla or is due to N++ incorrectly interfacing the new SciLexer. To test the bug, just paste the following line of code in any C/C++ file (can be a new empty file, with C or C++ selected as Language) and it gives a "Division by zero" error :

I hit Submit too soon.
Vikash solution about sending feedback to the Results window could be a 4th option.

Actually, Code Folding doesn't work at all on some languages. It seems those are languages, which use XML-like tags (XML, HTML, PHP, ASP…).
Code folding in XML/HTML/javascript/php will work in 5.7.1 release.

That's what i get too :) :) the problem is with the persisting find (Select and Find Next which for me is the same as the Volatile)…
Open Change.log
Click into the word 'Add'
Ctrl-F3 ( --> finds next Add )
F3 ( hasn't picked up the finding of 'Add' )

I cannot reproduce the bug in 5.7.1 RC under Windows 7 64 bits.
Is there anyone can reproduce it?

I can confirm it on Win XP Professional SP2, happens exactly as described by frboyer.
