Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: Gena01 on June 11, 2006, 10:42:37 pm Please report feedback on Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 in this thread.
Please please check for any regressions and report any problems/bugs you find. Thank you. Gena01 Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 14, 2006, 02:46:50 am Hi!
Started to use your nice program as replace for Notepad. The first idea -- it would be much more comfortable to use drag&drop to open files. I mean drag&drop file from Explorer onto the Win32Pad window should act as File->Open... Notepad has this feature. Best regards!

Drag'n'Drop should work for opening files in Win32Pad. Gena01 Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: therube on June 14, 2006, 10:00:38 am Just to confirm, D&D causes a new instance of Win32pad to load, opening the "dropped" file.
Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: henrik on June 14, 2006, 10:48:31 am
There is a setting for that in the options dialog called "Dropped Files in New Window". That way you can set if it should open a new window or re-use the existing window. Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 15, 2006, 04:14:51 am I'm using it for .log files, an option for after open (reload) cursor to eof would be nice.
Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 15, 2006, 05:42:32 am Hi nice work again.
A little thing to improve would be the contrast of selected text when using black background and white text. Why not to made an color option for this availble? greets Alex Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 15, 2006, 06:34:05 am Oh!
Really, D&D works. Something strange happened at the first attempt. But now it's all OK. Very nice program! Best Regards. Denwer Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 15, 2006, 06:41:24 am btw, If I change checkbox "Full path in Title" nothing visibly changes. I mean -- is it about the window caption? There is always full path in it.

Just goes to show you :wink:. Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: therube on June 15, 2006, 08:37:06 am QUOTE If I change checkbox "Full path in Title" nothing visibly changes.

Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: jmaloney on June 16, 2006, 02:25:45 pm I found another text source that does not paste into Win32pad. In Windows Explorer if I copy the name of a file to the clipboard and then paste the file name into Win32pad all I get is a square and a B.

Windows XP Profesional Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 22, 2006, 07:19:24 am Some dialogues of Win32Pad are still using the deprecated "MS Sans Serif" Font.
Please consider changing this to "MS Shell Dlg". On modern 2K & XP systems this automatically resolves to "Tahoma", on old Win9X based systems to "MS Sans Serif". BTW MS Sans Serif is not compatible with XP's "ClearType" feature, thus giving a pixeled view. Please change these: - Options - About Thank you Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on June 22, 2006, 07:53:00 am suggestion:

Actually it was working fine in 1.5.10. So i'm sticking with the latter. Really annoyning for me, paths are too long to see filename.

It's full path now. Looks good. QUOTE x Trying to fix slow big file loading problem. Tried a 90 MB file (text listing of my entire Registry dump). If it will ever open, I don't know - I'm not going to wait that long. It opened in a matter of seconds (<30 I'd say), in VIM. (Not that I would typically attempt to edit a file that large in Win32pad anyhow.) Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on July 27, 2006, 12:02:08 pm Great program, been using it for a while now (year, 2...dunno, a while). Only 2 problems I've found with it: When you are drag and dropping to another window, and the cursor passes over win32pad, it resets the cursor to the beginning of the file (especially annoying when editing code) and I'm not sure, but it looks like you use smooth scrolling, which would be nice to be able to disable.
Keep up the great work, thanks for an amazing program. -Dan Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on July 30, 2006, 05:28:44 pm Great Notepad replacement!
Light and fast, just as I like it! Just a few suggestions: - Option to disable smooth scrolling (in my experience it just makes scrolling slower, so I prefer to disable it). - Support - Clear the "dirty" flag when you modified the file and then have undone all changes (so there's nothing more to undo but the file remains "dirty"). Regards! Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on July 30, 2006, 05:31:58 pm The 2nd. point above should read:
- Support < Ctrl+Up > and < Ctrl+Down > to scroll without moving the cursor (this is to emulate other editors like Metapad or SciTE). Title: Win32Pad 1.5.10.1 Post by: on August 09, 2006, 02:52:26 pm when i select URL (with Highlight URL enabled) i'd like to have Cut command in context menu
