EmEditor 8.05 and Vista SP2, v.113 was used.

I tesetd EmEditor portable version 8.05 on Vista SP1 (32-bit), but there was no problem. Do you have a limited account? Are there any security settings turned on or any anti-virus program running on your machine?

Using ctrl+tab switches between tabs in some kind of last used order. I want to switch to the left or right as they are appear in the tabs.

Also I have added alt+left/right as keyboard shortcut but that only switches between two documents.

Macro toolbar and Tools toolbar can come on automatically every time I run EmEditor, but HTML toolbar will disappear when I leave and run EmEditor again.
How can I make it stay?

OK. I think there is a bug that even if you uncheck “Automatically display the HTML Bar for selected configurations” in the plug-in properties, it will not remember when you run EmEditor again. However, to work around this, you can check all configurations in the list of the HTMLBar properties while “Automatically display the HTML Bar for selected configurations” is checked.

The snippets version 9 is exciting and looks great.

Does it have a facility that would let me create snippets in a batch process, similar to the auto complete plug-in., instead of doing them one by one manually?

Is there some sort of a template?

thank you

I am not exactly sure what you want to do, but maybe you can export one or more snippets, and open that snippet XML file (*.eesnip). Then you can copy and paste snippets and import again.

Hi,
This question is really driving me crazy, not because the information is particularly useful, but just because I *need to know*! Do you know what I mean?

I have a file that has some very obscure unicode characters in it – from the “Yi Syllables” block. I also pasted some regular Chinese characters into it to. The amazing thing is that it seems to be displaying correctly. Here are the contents (I doubt they’ll show up correctly here):
U+A000 ꀀ YI SYLLABLE IT
你好你好
ꀂꀃꀄ
I checked with BabelMap, and the only font on my system that has the Yi Syllables is Microsoft Yi Baiti, and it doesn’t have any regular Chinese characters. So that means that at least two fonts are being used in the display of EmEditor at once. How does this work? It doesn’t seem to matter what “Font Category” or “Font” I select.

I really would like to understand more about how these “Font” and “Font Category” options work, and how they interact with the display fonts, and how they depend on the actual characters in the file. Is there anywhere in the documentation or help files where this is written up in detail?

Thanks!

It is Windows feature called Font-Link or something like that, and it is not the feature of EmEditor. You can find the information about font-linking in Windows related or Microsoft website. In order to find the exact code value of each character in EmEditor, press CTRL + I where the cursor is at the left side of the character you want to inspect.

Unfortunately, you cannot change the color of the cursor. However, you can change the thickness of the cursor. Please read:

I will make sure to support unknown languages in v9. Thanks!

I write in C++Builder. There is the mian word “__property”.
I add this word to higlight words list. Now I have incorrect highlight.

I guess the Highlight Right Side or Highlight Right All checkbox is checked for the keyword __property or int. Please check the Highlight (1) tab of configuration properties.

Snippets plug-in bug

Please provice more information. Did you try to “reset all” in the “Import/Export” in the context menu? Which snippet did you choose and what was the content of the snippet?

Christine,

I admire emEditor, a lot, so please don’t take this wrong…
I think that progress (in terms of implementing new features here) is really slow.
We saw changes from 8.01 – 8.05 and they are just small bug fixes. This comprehensive list is virtually untouched.

EmEditor has a strong competition in editors that have huge communities behind and very responsive devs.

Do you plan to release a good chuck of features from this list in a (major) update?
Thanks

I don’t want you to misunderstand this. Minor updates are only for bug fixes only. This is because adding features in minor updates can cause another bug and I want to avoid that kind of risks. It is also because translation (language pack development) will become difficult if new features are added constantly within minor updates). Please join our v9 testing. I am adding many new features to v9, for instance, snippets and other auto-complete features!

Hello Yutaka,

i found a problem that when i open the Snippet sidebar and close it, the Snippet functionality won’t work any more. and i open the sidebar again, all snippets are gone. i have to restart emeditor to have Snippet back.

i don’t know whether the problem is a common problem or just happens on my computer.

Thank you for your great work!

To have the Snippets work even when the sidebar is closed, please make sure Run Background option is checked in the General tab of the Snippets Properties.

Another bug:

Change the font size to be different from the default one, say 12. Now modify an open file in another application. After saving, the one opened in emeditor will be prompted for refresh. You will see that the font display changes to the default one (10) after refresh.

This will be fixed in alpha 16. Thanks!

I have a number of .txt files of 20 Mb each. Most of these Mbs are due to the fact that text in each line and in each file is followed by a huge number of white spaces.
I can open each file and do a Search for this
$+?$
Replace with nothing.
This operation shrinks every file down to 2 Mb. But I have to do this manually for every file.

When I try this Search and Replace in all files, it is very slow. Doing it manually (open file, search and replace, save, close, open next one) is much faster. How can I improve speed in Replace in files?
Computer hardware is not an issue here – 3.5 Gb RAM, Core 2 Duo.
Thanks!

I am not sure why Replace in Files is slower. But if doing it manually is faster, can you try Keep Modified Files Open checked in the Replace in Files dialog?

I am so excited trying out this nice editor, especially its new snippet feature. Now I can throw away e-editor and fully turn to EmEditor. Thanks.

I found a bug with snippet: When I am in an indented position, if I trigger a snippet that spans several lines, the snippet will align to the left border after I complete the first line. Ideally, I would like the snippet keeps its indented position. As an example, in your snippet demo video at around 01:07, you will see the open and close tags are not aligned because of this bug.

Thanks for your comments. I will fix this bug by alpha 16.
Thanks!

Hi, i am trying to get macros working, but am seeing a very odd problem.

If i RECORD a keyboard macro i can run it right after with no issues.

However, if i SAVE it, then try to run the saved macro i get this error:

‘document’ is undefined

I see this error for any existing macros as well.

I am running 32bit version of 8.05 Portable under Vista x64.

Please advise.

It seems that your computer doesn’t allow scriptable macros running. Maybe, its security level is higher than normal. If possible, you might want to install EmEditor from the installer rather than portable version.

You cannot move the FindBar to the bottom, unfortunately.

You can press the shortcut twice to hide the FindBar. Please also read http://www.emeditor.com/modules/xoopsfaq/index.php?cat_id=12#q100

I am trying to use “replace in files” to remove text between two known strings. The two strings are on different lines. Essentially I want to create a macro that will find the first string and select it and everything after that up to and including the second string.

Example:
<!DOCTYPE …
delete this
delete this
… End of String –>

I’m slightly over my head in trying to figure out how to select all the text after the first string until the second string so that I can delete it.

I’m trying to remove unneeded text from about 30 files in one shot.

Thanks for your help.

What number did you set in the Additional Lines to Search for Regular Expressions in the Search tab of Customize dialog box? If you set 2 or 3, then you should be able to remove two or three lines of text with a simple regular expression.

You can select Enable Tabs in the Window menu, but then you will get all windows separately.

It doesn’t work. Unfortunately, regular expression engine might not accept ExtB range.

Can EmEditor give an option that allows startup without loading any plugin? It’s better loading an plugin when we want to use it.

You can disable all plug-ins from the Customize Plug-ins dialog box (Tools > Plug-ins > Customize Plug-ins).
