Hello,

Yes, but I will remove this length limit on the Auto Marker on the next minor version. All other markers will still have length limitation of 79 charcters long.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello,

OK. I will fix this issue on the next minor version.

Thanks!

Hello,

Can you try settings the UseUniscribe value in the Registry as below? You can also try changing the UseWidthArray value:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareEmSoftEmEditor v3Common

UseUniscribe DWORD default: 1 for Windows XP, 0 for Windows Vista or later

UseWidthArray DWORD default: 1

Thank you,

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello,

I can’t reproduce the issue, but I believe there is a condition. Can you please export your settings from the Registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareEmSoftEmEditor v3), zip the files, and email to [email protected], and please identify yourself that you are gan from the forum.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello,

I see. I will have to consider improvements about line comments in future versions. For example, using regular expressions to specify line comments.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello,

I realize this issue. It will be fixed by today’s update (v13.0.1), and it will be released shortly. Thanks!

Hello,

Please use a fixed-pitch font, not a proportional font!

Thanks!

Hello ginger,

In recent versions of Windows, Ctrl+Shift+0 is by default used by Windows, so it can’t be used by EmEditor even though EmEditor set this shortcut correctly.

Please see:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/967893

to remove this shortcut assignments from Windows.

Thanks!

Hello,

You probably used the portable version of EmEditor. If you use the installer, the installer will warn you about the new key requirement during the installation, and there is 30-day grace period. However, if you just overwrite files using the portable version, there is no way for EmEditor to detect when you started to use v13, and EmEditor won’t be able to give you a grace period. Please use the Installer version whenever possible.

Thank you,

Hello Andreas,

I see. I believe some users still want the current behavior, so I will have to add new commands. I will add these new commands in future versions.

Thank you,

Thank you, it would be helpful. I didn’t think about such possibility.

BTW, how do you access these options? I don’t see them in the reference. Or did you mean a macro that will send specific keypresses for opening the dialog and ticking the checkbox?

Hi Flint,

I thought it was possible by doing this:

n = editor.GetProfileInt( eeRegCommon, "", "EnableMultiSel", 1 );

	editor.WriteProfileInt( eeRegCommon, "", "EnableMultiSel", !n );

	

But this code doesn’t work actually. It is because EmEditor has to be refreshed with new Registry values.

I might add a feature to refreh EmEditor or ability to toggle the Mulitple Selection option in future versions.

Thanks!

Hi David,

Yes, that’s correct.

Hello,

Can you please make sure “http” protocol is associated with the Internet browser you use?

I suggest you go to Default Programs in the Start menu, and set your default internet browser.

Thanks,

[Yutaka Emura]

Hi Flint,

I will consider this in future versions. Can I write a macro to toggle this for you?

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello David,

You can create an external tool. Please go to the Tools menu, External Tools, Customize Tools, click “New” button, enter a name in the title, and then enter:

http://translate.google.com/#auto/en/$(CurText)

	

in the Command field. “en” means English, and you can replace it with another language name if your destination language is not English.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

I already changed this back to “off” by default (same as older version). I think I shoulnd’t confuse users. Please set this check box.

Thanks,

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello urlwolf,

Please go to the Scroll tab of configuration properties, and check “Always Enable 1 Page Vertical Scroll”. If this is checked, you will see an extra scrollable space below the EOF. Some users like it this checked because you can always scroll down one page. Since some users like this checked, I made it on by default on v13. Obviously, some others users like you, urlwolf may not like this unchecked. Should I make it back to unchecked by default?

Wait a minute, if I Ctrl+click+drag and there is no selection yet, EE selects by words already! It’s only when selection is present, it selects by characters. It looks a bit inconsistent to me.

Yes, that’s correct.

2.
Ctrl+click+drag is not fixed: it still selects by characters if any selection is present.

Some users still want to be able to make multiple selections by using CTRL + click + drag, therefore, this is a combination of both good features. If you CTRL + Click + drag, it will select by character. However, if you CTRL + Click (No drag), it will select by words.

Hello Stefan,

In Find in Files dialog box, by the File types dropdown list, please click the “>” button, then click “Current File”, to show the current file name. You can then click “>” again and click “Save as Default” if you want to save this settings.

Thanks!

Hello Deipotent,

Thank you for explaining. I am beginning to understand your task, but the question is how many users would use this feature. Even adding an extra button “Extract All” in the Find/Replace dialog will certainly annoy some users. I want the user interface as simple as possible.

I would also like to hear from other users about this topic.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Stefan,

Why do you need date and time macro functions while you can use JavaScript Date object? I would like EmEditor as lean as possible, and I believe date and macro functions are not necessary in EmEditor because JavaScript has the Date object, and you can easily write date and time related functions.

Thanks!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Deipotent,

Thank you for explaining. I am getting to understanding your task.

How about this procedure below?

1) Press Ctrl + F to bring up the Find dialog box, type “http://server.com/(d{3})/(d{3})”, check “Use Regular Expressions”, and click “Find All”. Alternatively, you can add “http://server.com/(d{3})/(d{3})” to the marker with the Regular Expression checked, right-click on this marker, and select “Find All”.

2) Make sure “Sticky Vertical Mode” is set by selecting “Edit” > “Selection Mode” > “Sticky Vertical Mode”. This will make sure a newline is inserted for each selection.

3) Ctrl + C to select all selections.

4) Ctrl + N to open a new document.

5) Ctrl + V to paste all the clipboard contents.

6) Ctrl + H to bring up the Replace dialog box, and replace “http://server.com/(d{3})/(d{3})” with http://server.com/2/1

For 6), you could click the marker and select “Replace”, but current beta version has a bug. I will fix this on the next beta version.

I can also write a macro to automate this process if you would like.

Thank you!

[Yutaka Emura]

Hello Flint,

Thanks for your reports.

1. 3. These will be fixed on the next beta version.

>In addition,

This is currently the specification. That is because when pasting text with NL, EmEditor will ignore the NL when pasting in multiple selections. In future versions, I might make it possible to paste text with NL.

Thank you!

Hello Stefan,

I am afraid you are misunderstanding. In this version (v13), I have added so many features of your request! For instance, the new options in the Numbering dialog box is one of many features you had requested.

Please understand that I won’t be able to satisfy all the customers’ request in a limited time. Besides, many customers want stability and robustness, rather than the feature-rich program. The more features we added, larger and more bloated the program becomes. It would become much more difficult to maintain if the program became bigger and bloated. If I added all the features of all the customers’ request, the program would certainly become too bloated. I believe I have to choose which features I should add.

Nevertheless, I might add a few more features of your request unless the translation is involved. If not in v13, I might add in future versions.

Some responses to your feature request:

** Display result of “Find All” in current file to output bar.

–> You can use the “Find in Files” and search only the current file with the Use Output Bar option. Alternatively, you can use the Search plug-in.

** Improvement of the zero-wide selection edit mode.
(Move selection line, delete left and right)

You can use a combination of the Switch Starting Point and Ending Point (SHIFT + F8) and SHIFT + RIGHT/LEFT to adjust the selection.

** Navigation: GoBack/GoForward in edit history.

–> Back and Forward commands are already included in EmEditor. You can display these commands as the Toolbar, and also you can use the default shortcut keys (ALT + LEFT and ALT + RIGHT).

** The $(AppDir), $(AppDrive), and $(Clipboard) parameters as ${} snippets equivalent.

–> I have already added this feature per your request if it means the External Tool properties.

** Edit > Advanced > Insert at Start/End of lines

–> You can select Edit > Selection Mode > Select Beginning/End of Lines, and then type text. This feature was added per your request.

** Updating the help with better explanations and examples.

–> I will certainly add more explanations and examples to the Help.

** Macros

Date.Day
Date.Month
Date.Year
Date.Hour
Date.Min
Date.Sec
document.BaseName
document.Extension

–> These can be done by a combination of JavaScript built-in classes and string manipulations.

document.SaveAs( [ strNEWName ] );

–> What is the difference between document.Save and document.SaveAs?

Thanks always for your support and understanding!
