Restore selection rectangle in case of active "Virtual Rectangular Selection" does not to work correctly.

Found, that the "file modified" flag is not set correct in every case
and so the toolbar's "Save File Button" is not activated correctly
(and title-bar indicator '*'),
for example: mark line and cut (Ctrl-X).

The file can be save, pressing Ctrl+S anyway,
then the file modified toggle seems to work again ...

First, Notepad3 always saves a file in UTF-8, no matter what encoding is active (File -> Encoding) or what the default encoding is (File -> Encoding -> Set Default). Most Chinese characters take up 3 bytes in UTF-8 but 2 in GB18030 so that can be observed in the screenshot following:

Second, Notepad3 also opens any file using UTF-8, despite the actual encoding of that file. This makes non-UTF-8 files gibberish, and more obscurely, Notepad3 refuses to reload the file in the correct encoding: No option in File -> Encoding does actually reload the file.

The attached text file contains two Chinese characters, '测试' which means 'test', in GB18030 encoding. This file is unreadable by Notepad3.
test.txt

lol.... ehhh yeah...
pretty please.. ;) :D

I'm considering dropping the special Notepad replacer setup build and creating a external utility in AutoIt to replace Notepad using various methods. The issue is, because of the method the setup file is using to replace Notepad, it is seen as Malware by many security scanners. Any idees?

Search (RegExpr) for "(\d\d)\s\1"

• meaning: group(()): 2-digits(\d\d), space(\s), same-2-digits (\1)=(1st group) )
  "Find next" is OK ("03 03"...)
  "Find previous" does not (reason "find right-to-left" interpretation of search pattern is used),
  so "\1\s(\d\d)" will work for "Find previous" - but this is not intended.

PR #82 will fix this.

Hi all. It is time we upgrade the Notepad3 icon. However, I'm having a hard time picking between the following icons. Please choose your favorite. Simply reply with Icon 1, Icon 2, Icon 3 or Icon 4. Thank you for your support.

Notepad3 Icon 1!

Notepad3 Icon 2!

Notepad3 Icon 3!

Notepad3 Icon 4!

Build 468... With a newly saved file (e.g. 'Ctrl-S'), the following operations make the "Save" toolbar icon come alive, but the dirty/unsaved asterisk indicator in the title bar does not appear:

• Clear ('Del', Edit -> Clear)
• Cut ('Ctrl-X', Edit -> Cut, 'Cut' toolbar icon)
• Paste ('Ctrl-V', Edit -> Paste, 'Paste' toolbar icon)

The same happened with build 453, with the exception of the Paste command which updated the dirty file indicator correctly. (i.e. the behaviour has regressed with build 468.)

Happily, the software still recognises that the file is indeed dirty, as evidenced when you close said file and Notepad3 displays the save prompt.

I believe that the correct behaviour should be:

Whenever the file is dirty (unsaved):

• The 'Save' toolbar icon should be coloured
• The Dirty File asterisk should be present

Whenever the file is clean (saved):

• The 'Save' toolbar icon should be grey
• The Dirty File asterisk should be absent

Test environment: Windows 10 Enterprise 1607 x64, Notepad3 x64 builds 453 and 468.

since '/p' is laready taken as set window position...

I would like to recommend/suggest changes as follows..

re-flag "set window position"
from = /p
to = /wp ie w= window p=position
or /w

and use /p for printing the file just like in the original notepad...
that way I can replace the file type associations for that function too! :D :D

please..

Please add capability to compile with GCC, thank you.

I see release 1.0.2.386 here on Github.

But on https://www.rizonesoft.com/downloads/notepad3/
it is still 1.0.2.350 that is offered for download.

Is build 1.0.2.386 not supposed to be downloadable via the website?

Thank you.

It appears that in an effort to fix #4 (toolbar is micro-sized on hi-res displays), you may have made the high-resolution icons the only option. As a result of this, some toolbar icons do not get displayed when the window is not maximised.

I have not got any figures but I believe that users with non-high resolution displays outnumber those who use such. It is therefore my suggestion that you detect the user's DPI settings when the program is ran using the GetDpiForMonitor function and then set the toolbar icon size accordingly.
Alternatively, you can include an option in the settings menu to allow users to manually choose whether to display high-resolution toolbar icons or not.

Hi,

could you add on downloadpage /silent install swiches ?
because to have a possible for add in the installation
and automatic replace the "ms-notepad"

I can't type or copy paste some czech letters for example č ě or ů when encoding is set to default ANSI (1250). It was working in notepad2-mod or notepad. Also it works if i change encoding to something else.

Please and thank you.

Autohotkey files are executable - when I double-click on them, they are executed by Autohotkey. Notepad2 used to execute these without any problem.

But for notepad3, half the toolbar is grayed out, in fact. If I open a blank/empty file, all those buttons are ready to push. But when I open any existing file, they are grayed out.

Notepad3 (64-bit) Build 440

Subject line says it all..

This was the case in version (v2.17.905.491) too
and IS also present in the new BUILD 505 TOO....

also happens if I do it from the menu EDIT --> "Select all"

but IF I use the menu entry EDIT --> "Copy all"
it copies fine without changing the status of the file..

Main site is having security crises!

"Your connection is not secure"

outdated security??

Supposedly this is replacement for notepad2-mod:

http://github.com/XhmikosR/notepad2-mod/issues/194#issuecomment-318954485

but notepad2-mod uses GitHub for releases:

http://github.com/XhmikosR/notepad2-mod/releases

this program should do that too

• open file
• press ctrl+a
• file is now modified, if you try to close it you get the save popup

thx!

I get a doc with cr/lf and would like to search and replace with space for those codes, but am unable too.

Hi. I'm excited to see updates to the Notepad2 base! I just discovered a problem with my new hi-res laptop display (3200x1800). It is best shown in this screenshot:

http://prnt.sc/b75udg

It's probably easier to fix with a big/small icon check box in the "customize toolbar" dialog, but a smart-fix would be awesome.

Thanks!

Something very minor... In a fresh install of Notepad3 build 392, the "2nd Default Scheme" setting is turned on, and I'm wondering if it should be. In upstream versions (notepad2-mod, notepad2), this setting is turned off by default.

Should "2nd Default Scheme" be off by default in notepad3?

Hi,
a suggestion,

a replacer for notepad with notepad3, but not as setup,
maybe more as / with an inf-file and and a exefile
who start to install/use the inf-file and rename the inf-launcher as "setup.exe"
for enhanced users who want see what's going on in the routine.
Or maybe a batch-file were replace the notepad and put the 2 /3 files in the systems.

who backup the orginal notepad.exe, rename the notepad3.exe to notepad.exe and
copy the 2-3 files into the right place in the windows-system (32/wow64)

If you are looking for help with Notepad3, please post your question in the Notepad3 community forum. ( https://www.rizonesoft.com/forums/forum/product-support/notepad3/ ) We will also discuss new releases and specific features there. Please help the Notepad3 community grow. This enable us to keep on improving Notepad3. Thank you for your support and remember, no matter how silly a question seems, we want to hear about it.

Pasting text from (Unicode aware) clipboard to an ANSI code page, the encoding detector seems not to be able to convert the text to Scintilla's multi-byte format, requesting the complete text encoding to be changed to UTF-8 Unicode before pasting.
Saving the file (UTF-8 no BOM) and reload proof, that the file can be reloaded in ANSI - no special Unicode character found. So the conversion should not complain about non ANSI chars ?

or at least it was for some time over the past hour for NO apparent reason at all...

NOW its back to normal again.. uughhh

I have memory dmp files if u think u can use them at all...

I want a MATLAB syntax support, please.

It is a Scintilla problem
(see Feature Request (dated 2011): https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/1224),
which has been rejected by the maintainers of the Scintilla library.
Reason: Cut is implemented on document-level, Selection is on view-level.
To solve this problem, the level connecting implementation (NP3's source code) has to
solve it. This cannot be easily done, cause NPn's undo/redo stack
completely relies on Scintillas document-level implementation ...
Flo (the developer of original NP2) managed to implement it for NP2 v.5.0.26-beta4,
but the sources are not available ... :-/

I put this just as a reminder resp. documentation or as a challenge for a gentle developer ... ;-)

I am using windows10 and when I run notepad (all notepad version) as administrator ,I can't drag file into notepad and open it.
Thanks

In Windows 10, there is a new invisible window border 7px wide on three sides (left, bottom and right). This is affecting Notpad3 startup position if the last saved location was against the edges of the desktop causing small gaps as per the screenshot below

Window manager applications, such MaxTo, were the most affected by this and I got the information above from this issue. Any chance a similar change can be implemented in Notepad3?

Settings mismatch seems to have been introduced in this commit:
74ec34d

To get DirectWrite settings you call:
iSciDirectWriteTech = IniSectionGetInt(pIniSection,L"SciDirectWriteTech",-1);
which gets DirectWrite settings from ini file setting called "SciDirectWriteTech"

yet, when you save settings, you call:
IniSectionSetInt(pIniSection, L"SciDrawTechnology",iSciDirectWriteTech);
which deletes the SciDirectWriteTech setting in the ini file and sets a new one, called "SciDrawTechnology"

The end result of all this is that DirectWrite settings are not stored and the variable always ends up being set to -1.

The issue is described and solved here:

ProgerXP/Notepad2e#89

Can this be integrated to Notepad3 ?

Thx !

Title says it pretty well...

Can use ALSO increase the size File TYPE extension lists in "Customize Scheme" window..??+

back from NP2, this had a hard coded limit in NP2....
I asked Flo some where in the past few years but he didn't want to.. :( X(
I asked because had added so many extensions to the ini config section
that I ran into that hard wall...

could you double, triple, quadruple that limit?
that is if you haven't already done so...

I tried looking through the code to find where this value is stored.. but...
I am not sure what I'm looking for so...

The 64-bit NP3 Build crashes on Ctrl-F with Critical Heap Memory Error on Win7 machine.

The functionality to strip trailing blanks is broken since version 386. Trailing tabs are kept and not removed any longer (which happens in Notepad2 and also earlier versions of Notepad3).

In case this is a feature, is it possible to make that an option? I'd like to get rid of unnecessary tab characters at the end of lines.

I open this issue, cause i like to track (and merge) possible fixes for notepad2-mod, to fix them in NP3 too.
(Merging directly from notepad2-mod via Git isn't that easy, cause NP3 has a lot of PRs integrated,
which are not merged into notepad2-mod).

I would like to apologise about the delay in the new Notepad3 release. My day job is keeping me extremely busy these past weeks. However, I should have some time this weekend to create a new release. Thank you all for your hard work and continued support.

Being a visual studio & sublime text coder I'm incredibly used to the following behavior

Ctrl+c if no text is selected = copy line

ctrl+x -f no text is selected = cut line

I find these extremely useful !

Is there any chance to add them (at least as an option) to Notepad3 ?

Thx !

I downloaded and installed the version of Notepad3 that should replace the system notepad but the context menu (that one pops up a menu when you right click on a file) option to open with notepad fails.

Hi first off I am excited!! to see some one has ported and TAKEN OVER development of
MY 1st and #1 FAVORITE program Notepad 2!!!!! LOL :D :D :D : D OOh YEAH!!

forgot to add system specs:
CPUz Report: https://valid.x86.fr/97evki

I believe I have come across a bug... so... here it is..

This is the extended list of File Type Extensions I have imported from Notepad 2.. lol ;)
XML File:
"xml; xsml; xsl; rss; svg; xul; xsd; xslt; axl; xaml; rdf; vcproj; kml; cbp; manifest; wsdl; xrc; xspf; layout"

Makefiles:
"mak; make; mk; dc; dsp; msvc; ms; in; am; mingw32; gcc; la; ac"

Configuration Files:
"ini; inf; cfg; properties; oem; sif; url; sed; theme; ins; scf; dat; psr; rdx; rdn; rdb; cht; lily; ucon64rc; development"

plus others..

If I import from NP2's export file, BUT as soon as I click OK it reverts to the defaults set below...

OR IF I edit that string into the ini file DIRECTLY and save it seems to take it just fine..
BUT again if I go and into the

NP3 Defaulted back to the original ext. string sets:
XML File: "xml; xsl; rss; svg; xul; xsd; xslt; axl; rdf; xaml; vcproj"
Config File: "ini; inf; cfg; properties; oem; sif; url; sed; theme"

The configuration ext list was surviving the ok/save but as soon as edited out the "reg" ext. because
your version now has its OWN registry section it foobared my custom list and reverted to these defaults..
to which I added 'key' so it = "reg; key" key is a less used ext used by windows for
the same purpose as .reg

YUP I did a quick edit of the Registry extension list added random letter then removed it,
PRESSED OK and came back to check on it, LO AND BEHOLD the 'key' entry was GONE ie it reset to 'reg' only.....
I manually tried to enter the 'key' string.. and... NOPE it keeps resetting!! lol ;_; X(

so yeah I NP3 needs a bit of work lol, ie. I DISCOVERED A BUG!!!! lol ;) ;p

OOh I just noticed that your notepad3.ini is UNICODE 16bit w/ BOM...
all my files default to either UTF-8 or ANSI...
COULD that be the issue???

another note, I created an exported ini from NP3 after importing from NP2 export...
I edited the NP3 to added back in a few of the missing ext. strings.. and re-imported
back into NP3... my full list for XML showed up BUT as soon as I OK'd.. and went back to check it was back to default again!
lol ;) ;p NO wait a sec... it looked back at default in the editor but I saved the ini and opened that directly and checked.. WHOo
my full xml doc. list was there.. this is just too weird...

Compared to Notepad2-mod

Missing questions marks on search and replace windows. Questions marks give all the options for both Regular expression search and Transform backslashes.

Wildcard search is missing completely.

so yeah I found a texture glitch of some kind...

System Specs:

• Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64
• All Windows updates done, ie. I always keep my Windows PCs up to date...
• CPUz Report: https://valid.x86.fr/97evki

I noticed that NP3 currently does not display the full version string in the [About Dialog Box]
currently : "Notepad3 (64bit) 2 build 402 "
could be:
"Notepad 3 (v2.0.2.build402)(64/32bit)"
or maybe..
"Notepad 3 (v2.0.2.402)(64/32bit)"
etc...

Notepad 3 is my favorite text editor, but It's a pity without supports for go language.

Please improve block selection (as in Akelpad, for example). I am fan of notepad#, but have to use one sententiously with Akelpad for block selection.

Hi,

FYI:

New Notepad2Mod out @ https://github.com/XhmikosR/notepad2-mod/compare/4.2.25.980…4.2.25.985

Please have changes added into Notepad3. 🙂

Thanks again,

Will
