(Ctrl+F)}}<br /> <br /> Shows the {{dialog|Search}} dialog at the bottom of the window, also called the {{dialog|Search bar}}.<br /> After entering search conditions, searches for specified '''{{field|Search|Find}}''' phrase within the document.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} Several settings in the {{dialog|Settings}} dialog can alter, what phrase and options are preloaded into the {{dialog|Search}} dialog upon invoking. See chapter [[Search page]] of the {{dialog|Settings}} dialog.<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Match case}}''' option can be used to {{defined|match case}} upon searching. By default, character case is ignored upon searching.<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Whole words}}''' option can be used to check for {{defined|word boundaries}} upon searching, i.e. a phrase is located in the document only if no {{defined|word letters}} are found directly before and after the phrase, and the phrase begins and ends with {{defined|word letters}}.<br /> <br /> {{version}} Prior to version 6.0, only characters directly before and after the phrase were checked. Since version 6.0, phrase beginning and end is checked as well. So, if searching for whole words, the phrase itself must start and end with a {{defined|word}}.<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Escapes}}''' option can be used to allow entering newlines and Tab characters into the {{field|Search|Find}} phrase. Use {{string|\n}} sequence to encode a newline, use {{string|\t}} to encode a Tab character, and use {{string|\\}} to encode a simple backslash ({{string|\}}) character wherever a confusion with other escapes could arise.<br /> <br /> Note: A newline escape ({{string|\n}}) matches any kind of newline (Windows, Unix, Mac). A newline escape matches exactly one newline, i.e. use {{string|\n\n}} in order to match two consecutive newlines, etc.<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|RegExps}}''' option can be used to turn the {{feature|Regular expressions}} engine on. When {{feature|Regular expressions}} are enabled, {{field|Search|Find}} is parsed as a ''regular expression pattern''. See chapter [[Regular expressions]] for more details on supported regular expressions syntax.<br /> <br /> Note: Since [[regular expressions]] can take a long time to find match, {{hotkey|Esc}} can be used to interrupt a search.<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Wrap around}}''' option can be used to allow searching even beyond the edge of the document. If the search encounters the end or the beginning of the document, it automatically wraps around the document edge and continues from the beginning or the end of the document respectively.<br /> <br /> {{version}} Prior to version 6.0, this option was available within the {{dialog|Settings}} dialog. It has been moved to {{dialog|Search}} dialog in version 6.0 for convenience.<br /> <br /> =====Primary vs Secondary search=====<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Use 2nd search}}''' option can be used to switch between entering {{feature|primary search}} and {{feature|secondary search}}. Whenever searching, search phrase and search options are automatically remembered into either {{feature|primary search}} or into {{feature|secondary search}}, and can be re-used later, for example by {{feature|Find Next}} (using {{feature|primary search}}) or {{feature|Look for Next}} (using {{feature|secondary search}}) respectively. Most available search commands are coupled this way, e.g. {{feature|Find Previous}} and {{feature|Look for Previous}}, {{feature|Find Selected}} and {{feature|Look for Selected}}, {{feature|Find Later}} and {{feature|Look for Later}}, etc.<br /> <br /> {{version}} Prior to version 6.0, this option was not available and the {{dialog|Search}} dialog was restricted to the {{feature|primary search}} only.<br /> <br /> =====Highlight all=====<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Highlight all}}''' option can be used to {{todo|describe Highlight all, 2nd search, refreshing, counting, etc.}} <br /> <br /> {{todo|Incremental search highlighting occurences vs Regular search moving the selection}}<br /> <br /> {{tip}} {{field|Search|Highlight all}} shows &lt;q&gt;Total matches&lt;/q&gt; directly in the {{feature|Search}} Bar. This value only gets updated when the {{feature|Search}} Bar actually runs an incremental search. Editing the document, e.g. removing the highlighted occurrences, does not immediately change the number shown. Toggle {{field|Search|Match case}} (or another checkbox related to the {{field|Search|Find}} pattern) to refresh the number whenever needed.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} {{field|Search|Highlight all}} usually runs the incremental search in two phases. The first phase quickly finds as much as it can within a short period of time, to avoid interfering with typing new search patterns. The second phase, running through the rest of the document, is then delayed by a few seconds (and the delay gets even longer with bigger documents, up to 5 seconds in total).<br /> <br /> =====Search history=====<br /> <br /> '''{{field|Search|Keep history}}''' option can be used to start collecting search patterns, with respective search options, and also replace patterns, with respective replacing options. Both {{field|Search|Find}} and {{field|Replace|Replace}} have small drop-downs attached to them, where up to 50 recent search patterns, or replace patterns, respectively, are stored.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} Turning the {{field|Search|Keep history}} option off erases all the history.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} Choosing a pattern from the history also restores the related checkboxes, e.g. {{field|Search|Match case}}, {{field|Search|Whole words}}, {{field|Search|RegExps}}, etc.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} Search patterns and their options are collected separately to replacing patterns and their options. Which means there are up to 50 searches retained, and also up to 50 replacements retained.<br /> <br /> =====Searching=====<br /> <br /> Buttons '''{{button|Search|Next}}''' and '''{{button|Search|Previous}}''' can be used to search downwards or upwards from the current position. Several hotkeys are available in the {{dialog|Search}} dialog as well as described below.<br /> <br /> Note: Works with the {{feature|primary search}} definition, unless {{field|Search|Use 2nd search}} option specifies otherwise.<br /> <br /> Note: Search patterns are limited to 64 KiB. Prior to version 6.3, search patterns were limited to 8 KiB.<br /> <br /> Note: On some versions of Windows, search patterns may be further limited by the system's willingness to deal with all 65536 characters in the {{field|Search|Find}} field. For example, when tested on some versions of Windows 10, the field's internal limit appeared to be 43679 characters. This limitation is limited to the usage of the {{field|Search|Find}} field though, and {{feature|Find Selected}} and {{feature|Find Later}} will accept whole 64 KiB patterns. Furthermore, on some versions of Windows 10, if the search pattern is longer than the system's {{field|Search|Find}} field limit, the {{field|Search|Find}} field might show as empty upon opening the {{dialog|Search}} dialog.<br /> <br /> =====Search bar hotkeys=====<br /> <br /> Following hotkeys are available in both {{dialog|Search}} dialog and {{dialog|Search and Replace}} dialog &lt;small&gt;(well, they both kinda look the same, don't they :)&lt;/small&gt;, however, some of them work only if controls of the {{dialog|Search}} dialog part are focused, e.g. {{field|Search|Find}} editbox, {{field|Search|Match case}} option, or some other option.<br /> <br /> Using {{feature|primary search}} or {{feature|secondary search}} correspondingly to option {{field|Search|Use 2nd search}}:<br /> * {{hotkey|Enter}} &amp;mdash; Search downwards. &lt;small&gt;({{dialog|Search}} dialog part only)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> * {{hotkey|Ctrl+Enter}} &amp;mdash; Search upwards. &lt;small&gt;({{dialog|Search}} dialog part only)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> * {{hotkey|Shift+Enter}} &amp;mdash; Search downwards from the beginning of the document.<br /> * {{hotkey|Ctrl+Shift+Enter}} &amp;mdash; Search upwards from the end of the document.<br /> <br /> Using {{feature|primary search}} directly.

It means that the original {{field|Replace|Replace}} phrase is never modified in this process, but it also means that (with [[regular expressions]]) back-references may also get converted based on respective matches.<br /> <br /> '''{{button|Replace|Replace}}''' button first verifies that the current selection matches the given search conditions, then either replaces it with {{field|Replace|Replace}} phrase, or if current selection does not match the search, searches for the next occurrence instead of replacing. This behaviour ensures that only matching pieces ever get replaced. After successful replacement, automatically searches for any next occurrence.<br /> <br /> '''{{button|Replace|Replace All}}''' button starts searching at the beginning of the document and replaces every match found throughout the entire document. Note: Since searching and replacing throughout the entire document can take a very long time, {{hotkey|Esc}} can be used to interrupt the process at any time.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} Number of replacements appears in the {{feature|Status Bar}} after each {{button|Replace|Replace All}}.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} To {{button|Replace|Replace All}} in documents where too many occurrences are expected, or to {{button|Replace|Replace All}} within selection only, use much faster and selection-oriented {{feature|Extended Replace}} tool (hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+Ctrl+R}}). See chapter [[Text tools]]. There are also other advantages in {{feature|Extended Replace}} tool over the more classic {{button|Replace|Replace All}} command, e.g. the {{feature|Extended Replace}} tool offers much bigger dialog fields for entering search and replace phrases.<br /> <br /> Note: Works with the {{feature|primary search}} definition, unless {{field|Search|Use 2nd search}} option specifies otherwise.<br /> <br /> {{tip}} If you need to replace individual characters for other characters, for examle, to get rid of encoding or punctuation, use the {{feature|Translate Characters}} tool instead (hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+Ctrl+T}}).

These tab stops determine, how much a Tab character shifts following text. Note: Tab characters unlike spaces are variable-length characters. They use pre-calculated tab stops to determine length of each Tab instance.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Left Margin}}''' setting specifies the size of the ''left selection margin''. The selection margin is a space between the text of the document and left border of the main window. Here users can drag mouse cursor to select entire lines quickly. Set {{field|Settings:Edit|Left Margin}} to zero to hide the selection margin completely.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Highlight current line}}''' setting visually backlights currently selected line(s). Upon no selection, the current line is backlit. Upon a multiline selection, all lines containing such selection are backlit. See also {{field|Settings:Appearance|Colors: Current line: Back}} in the [[Appearance page]] of the {{dialog|Settings}} dialog.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Options}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Disable smart Home key}}''' setting disables smart behavior of the {{hotkey|Home}} key. Smart behavior includes jumping between line's indentation and its beginning, or wrapped line beginning and unwrapped line beginning. See chapter [[Hotkeys]] for more details.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Disable Overwrite mode}}''' setting disables the<br /> {{feature|Overwrite Mode}} altogether and prevents invoking it accidentaly.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Bold Caret in Overwrite mode}}''' setting visualy enlarges the caret while in {{feature|Overwrite Mode}}. If disabled, {{feature|Overwrite Mode}} can be still be determined from indicator in the {{feature|Status Bar}}.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Suppress multi-level Undo/Redo}}''' setting disables multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} altogether and imitates the old Windows Notepad's Undo command. Note: Windows Notepad's single-level Undo is always available thru {{feature|Simple Undo}} hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+BkSpace}}, even if multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} is enabled. Therefore, it may be more convenient to keep the multi-level<br /> {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} enabled and use {{feature|Simple Undo}} hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+BkSpace}} to get the old Windows Notepad's behaviour.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Reduce Undo/Redo upon Save}}''' setting tells to reduce the multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} queues to a single<br /> {{feature|Undo}} step. The {{feature|Redo}} queue is emptied completely, the {{feature|Undo}} queue is allowed to retain one step (the last one).<br /> <br /> Note: By default, all {{feature|Undo}} steps are kept for the duration of a document, i.e. until another document is loaded or the current document is at least re-loaded. This might have severe influence on available memory after too many modifications to the document (e.g. if one keeps some document opened for days and makes lots of modifications daily, the {{feature|Undo}} queue can become quite big and superfluous, assuming no-one wants to {{feature|Undo}} entire days of work anyway).<br /> <br /> Note: {{feature|Revert}} is a handy command to get rid of the {{feature|Undo}} queue besides the {{field|Settings:Edit|Reduce Undo/Redo upon Save}} setting.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Allow inserting control characters}}''' setting allows users to insert special control characters (several ASCII characters below 32) into the document. Inserting these characters is by default forbidden in order to prevent inexperienced users to add these characters thru unassigned hotkeys.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select}}:====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select}}''' setting set of options allow to specify, which text entities are to be selectable as whole pieces by mouse multi-clicks. Note: A multi-click is a double-click, triple-click, quadruple-click, etc.<br /> <br /> Each further click advances to the next type of text entity in the following list (naturally, only those actually checked in this list count). After multi-clicking, hold down the mouse button and drag thru text to select by whole text pieces according to currently chosen text entity. See chapter [[Using mouse]] for further details about how mouse can be used within TED Notepad.<br /> <br /> * The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Word}}''' setting enables multi-click selecting by entire {{defined|words}}.<br /> <br /> * The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Wrapped line part}}''' setting enables multi-click selecting by visual lines. Unlike whole unwrapped {{defined|lines}}, visual lines are what the user can visually determine as lines of text at given time while {{feature|word wrapping}} is turned on.<br /> <br /> * The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Whole line}}''' setting enables multi-click selecting by entire unwrapped {{defined|lines}}.<br /> <br /> * The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Paragraph}}''' setting enables multi-click selecting by entire {{defined|paragraphs}}.<br /> <br /> * The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Entire document}}''' setting enables multi-click selecting the entire document.<br /> <br /> Example: Selecting thru double-click selects by entire words, if {{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Word}} is checked; triple-click selects by entire lines if {{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Wrapped line part}} is not checked and {{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Whole line}} is checked; and quadruple-click selects entire paragraphs if {{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Paragraph}} is checked. If {{field|Settings:Edit|Mouse multi-clicks gradually select: Wrapped line part}} is enabled triple-click selects wrapped line parts and entire lines can be selected by quadruple-click.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Complete Word}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Complete Word: Ignore case}}''' setting tells to {{defined|ignore case}} upon populating the {{dialog|Complete Word}} dialog in {{feature|Complete Word}}. See {{feature|Complete Word}} for further details.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Complete Word: Longest auto-completion}}''' setting enables the longest auto-completion in {{feature|Complete Word}}. See {{feature|Complete Word}} for further details.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Complete Word: Sort suggestions}}''' setting sorts suggestions in the {{dialog|Complete Word}} dialog in {{feature|Complete Word}}. See {{feature|Complete Word}} for further details.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Indentation}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Auto-indent text}}''' setting specifies, whether auto-indent mode is to be used. If turned on, each time a new line is started (using {{hotkey|Enter}} key), {{feature|Smart Return}} (hotkey {{hotkey|Ctrl+Enter}}) is used instead. Note: {{feature|Smart Return}} starts a new line as usual, but also copies indentation from the previous line to the new line. See {{feature|Smart Return}} for further details.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Tab key indents multiple lines}}''' setting allows the user to use {{hotkey|Tab}} key to {{feature|Indent}} multiple lines instead of replacing them by a Tab character. If turned off, {{hotkey|Tab}} key simply inserts one Tab character (or Spaces, if {{field|Settings:Edit|Insert Spaces instead of Tab}} is turned on), replacing anything selected. This is the same as if any other character was inserted, e.g. a letter. On the other hand, if turned on, instead of replacing, {{feature|Indent}} is invoked if multiple lines are selected and {{hotkey|Tab}} key is hit. Note: If single line or line part is selected (i.e. the selection does not contain any<br /> {{defined|newline}}), it gets replaced even if {{field|Settings:Edit|Tab key indents multiple lines}} is turned on.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Insert Spaces instead of Tab}}''' setting specifies whether to use Tab character when {{hotkey|Tab}} key is pressed, or rather to use Spaces instead. Note: The number of Spaces inserted depends on the position on line and on the {{field|Settings:Edit|Tab Size}} setting.<br /> <br /> Note: While using fixed-width font, the resulting visual blank space of inserted Spaces should be the same, as if a Tab character was inserted. This, however, does not always work with proportional fonts. In proportional fonts, size of a Space character often differ from font's base character width, from which tab stops are calculated. Therefore, there might be difference between real Tab size and accumulated size of Spaces inserted instead of a Tab. This option is however primarily meant for fixed-width fonts, and thus any potential difference while using proportional font is not considered wrong.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Keep caret from borders}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Keep caret from borders: Top/bottom}}''' setting ensures there is always some space between the caret and window borders. Scrolling is used early to keep this visual space, allowing the user to always see what is below or above the caret.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Keep caret from borders: Left/right}}''' setting ensures there is always some space between the caret and window borders. Scrolling is used early to keep this visual space, allowing the user to always see what is before or after the caret.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Selection Highlighter}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Minimum selection length}}''' setting can be used to avoid {{feature|Selection Highlighter}} being too noisy, highlighting every short selection, or the exact opposite, to make it highlight even one-character-long selections.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Match case when querying selection}}''' setting can be used to restrict {{feature|Selection Highlighter}} to only highlight exact matches of the current selection, down to the letter case.<br /> <br /> See {{feature|Selection Highlighter}} in the {{menu|Options menu}}.</div> Jsimlo https://jsimlo.sk/notepad/manual/wiki/index.php?title=Edit_page&diff=6135 Edit page 2026-05-29T22:36:26Z <p>Jsimlo: </p> <hr /> <div>&lt;noinclude&gt;{{manversion|6.4.1.0|dialog|Settings:Edit}}__NOTOC__&lt;/noinclude&gt;<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Basics}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Tab Size}}''' setting specifies the size of each ''tab stop''. These tab stops determine, how much a Tab character shifts following text. Note: Tab characters unlike spaces are variable-length characters. They use pre-calculated tab stops to determine length of each Tab instance.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Left Margin}}''' setting specifies the size of the ''left selection margin''. The selection margin is a space between the text of the document and left border of the main window. Here users can drag mouse cursor to select entire lines quickly. Set {{field|Settings:Edit|Left Margin}} to zero to hide the selection margin completely.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Highlight current line}}''' setting visually backlights currently selected line(s). Upon no selection, the current line is backlit. Upon a multiline selection, all lines containing such selection are backlit. See also {{field|Settings:Appearance|Colors: Current line: Back}} in the [[Appearance page]] of the {{dialog|Settings}} dialog.<br /> <br /> ===={{field|Settings:Edit|Options}}====<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Disable smart Home key}}''' setting disables smart behavior of the {{hotkey|Home}} key. Smart behavior includes jumping between line's indentation and its beginning, or wrapped line beginning and unwrapped line beginning. See chapter [[Hotkeys]] for more details.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Disable Overwrite mode}}''' setting disables the<br /> {{feature|Overwrite Mode}} altogether and prevents invoking it accidentaly.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Bold Caret in Overwrite mode}}''' setting visualy enlarges the caret while in {{feature|Overwrite Mode}}. If disabled, {{feature|Overwrite Mode}} can be still be determined from indicator in the {{feature|Status Bar}}.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Suppress multi-level Undo/Redo}}''' setting disables multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} altogether and imitates the old Windows Notepad's Undo command. Note: Windows Notepad's single-level Undo is always available thru {{feature|Simple Undo}} hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+BkSpace}}, even if multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} is enabled. Therefore, it may be more convenient to keep the multi-level<br /> {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} enabled and use {{feature|Simple Undo}} hotkey {{hotkey|Alt+BkSpace}} to get the old Windows Notepad's behaviour.<br /> <br /> The '''{{field|Settings:Edit|Reduce Undo/Redo upon Save}}''' setting tells to reduce the multi-level {{feature|Undo}}/{{feature|Redo}} queues to a single<br /> {{feature|Undo}} step. The {{feature|Redo}} queue is emptied completely, the {{feature|Undo}} queue is allowed to retain one step (the last one).<br /> <br /> Note: By default, all {{feature|Undo}} steps are kept for the duration of a document, i.e. until another document is loaded or the current document is at least re-loaded.
