I am still working on it, but you didn’t send me a sample of the text as an attachment but only a screenshot. Would you please send me a sample in Word document and in text file? Also, what font do you use to display the text?
1) – It would be nice if all the search results would group together under a single button at the beginning of the “Windows” toolbar. A drop down menu would allow me to select a specific search result.
This is not currently possible within EmEditor Core, but it might be possible if one writes a plug-in.
– Provide a command to close all open search results.
You can use Close All command http://www.emeditor.com/help/cmd/file/exit_all.htm or Close All without Save http://www.emeditor.com/help/cmd/file/quit_all.htm.
– When I specify a folder (and subfolders) to search, make the specification sticky – keep using it. I like to set the application folder as the search folder and then leave it there. I don’t like the way in which the current folder keeps getting selected – my app is much larger than that.
You can uncheck “Use Current Folder as Default for Find in Files”.
2) Select “Keyboard Map” on the Help menu, and you can customize the keyboard.
3) You can double-click the edge of the toolbar to add the “Marks” button.
4) Unfortunately, you cannot split. It might be something to consider in future.
5) Make sure “Strip Path for Files in Current Folder” is checked on the File tab of the Customize dialog box. I know this does NOT solve relative paths as ..base. This might be something to consider in future.
Thanks!
Alt+Home can move to the column 1 in a line. In EmEditor Professional or Standard, you can customize keyboards so Home can move to the column 1.
Sorry, I mean open documents, not column selection. Alternatively, you can create a macro to replace strings in open documents. If you cannot write a macro, I will write one for you, so please let me know.
As I posted a similar message elsewhere, I really would like to implement replace string feature in column selection. I don’t know about the tab location, but I understand your request. I cannot make any promises. Thanks for your opinions!
You can select a column of text with EmEditor. However, it is not easy to replace the column portion with a certain text. This is an area that I want to improve in future versions. Thanks!
I know there is the issue with “trimmed”, but I am not sure about the colors. It is probably something to do with how Windows clear-type text rendered. Did you try comparing with Notepad or other word processors?
It is just a matter of taste. In future, I will try to add a “theme” feature for EmEditor color set so one can easily change all the colors without need to change each color independently, which has been a tedious work!
That will be definately a great addition to EmEditor, but I don’t want to include that feature within EmEditor core. I will try to improve plug-in capabilities so that one can write a command prompt plug-in in future versions.
That command in not available in EmEditor core, but you can easily write or record a macro to do just that. Just use Record Macro feature of EmEditor to record your keystroke, and you can play back again when needed.
VB.NET syntax file is available in our library: http://www.emeditor.com/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=10&lid=85 Did you try this?
While it is hard to tell exactly what happens without looking at the screenshot of the issue, I bet you have not selected a proper font for the language within EmEditor.
Please e-mail me a screen capture of EmEditor that failed to display Amharic text, and the sample Amharic text file as attachments if you still have issues.
Please check if the quoted line really begins with one of quote marks. The quote marks are defined in the Quote Marks text box in the Display tab of Properties. The default quote mark is either > or |.
I don’t have any problems. If “No Change” is preselected, return methods are mixed. For instance, if some lines use LF only while other lines use CR+LF, then “No Change” will be preselected. If you believe this is a bug in EmEditor, can you please let me know procedure how to reproduce this issue? Thanks!
I am not sure what you really want to do, but did you try
Macro that extracts lines that contain the specified string?That is true to accomodate Not Allowed at Line Head characters you can define on the Wrap tab of Properties.
Recent versions do not display the Page number until you select Print or Print Preview command. This is to avoid unnecessary printer access. If you like the previous behavior, you can clear the Avoid Printer Access checkbox on the File tab of the Customize dialog box (Tools > Customize), but that might cause a longer time to launch EmEditor.
Go to Properties > Highlight (1), and add specific words you want to highlight. And then you can go to Properties > Display, and change the font style from Normal to Underline, Bold or Italic for each Highlight (1) – (10) item.
In future versions, I will add an ability to do these tasks more easily to macros.
