UltraEdit, UltraCompare, UEStudio forums

Thanks very much for your detailed answer and very useful workarounds. I thought it might have something to do with the new character handling that UE does, but I don't have the expertise to analyze it further. I will make your suggested changes to my macros and then keep an eye on what UE does goin...

I've been using Perl hex searches in several of my macros for many years to find and fix funky characters (like left and right quotes) that don't always play nicely in HTML. But these searches are now failing in UE (version 25.00.0.58). Even doing a manual search is failing. Anybody know why? I have...

Yup, that's me - I am using a project. It's great to hear that it's a known problem that is being worked on. Thanks!

Recently I've been finding out that UE is not saving my bookmarks between opens and closes. I have checked, and I DO have Save Bookmarks checked in the configuration settings. I am using what I think is the very latest version, 24.10.0.35, 64-bit. I saw " Addressed issues with bookmarks " in the las...

OK, got it! I had noticed that "Modify" button on the Edit macro dialog but thought that was for use after you had edited it to SAVE the modifications. Sometimes the wording used in UE can be confusing, although with any complex product it is difficult to make things easy. Thanks!

That worked. Excellent! Thanks! I actually DID in fact try the Modify Macro route myself earlier, but with contemporary menus and Ribbon mode, the Edit macro dialog does not show the keyboard assignment. So the only place I could find where the macro was associated with a keystroke was in the Keyboa...

I suppose this has been asked before, but I cannot find anything on it, so here goes: UltraEdit keeps losing my new keyboard assignments - i.e. it reverts to the old assignments the next time I run it. How do I get it to REMEMBER my new assignments? Specifically, I have alt-j assigned to a macro I w...

I have version 23 installed. The workaround given by Mofi above works, as far as I can see. At least it does with 2 files open. That is: pick the Window menu (shows the Window "ribbon"), check the Enable tiling box, then use the Cascade & tile pulldown to chose vertical or horizontal tiling. The 2 f...

Interesting summary of all the issues, Mofi. It makes me feel good that I was right (such a rare occurrence!) in thinking it isn't as simple as it might seem at first. As far as dual installations (32 and 64), it is not likely that many people would want it, IMHO, except for people like yourself who...

I just got thru installing the 64-bit version of UE (replacing my earlier 32-bit version). I wondered whether I should uninstall the 32-bit version first. I know that all earlier upgrades were accomplished by installing OVER the prior version, but when going from 32-bit to 64-bit, it is not at all o...

OK, I got it working, including now seeing the "Project>Set Auto Load Macro" item on the menu (active after you have opened a Project). I tried using it and it works. Next time I opened that project, the specific macro I established was in the Macro List. Very nice, and what I was looking for. As fa...

OK, thanks very much for your detailed info and suggestion, Mofi. I will give it a try and report back (so others might benefit if they have a similar problem)...

OK, since I seem to be the only person who has the latest version of UE but does not have the menu item in the Project Menu to set a macro, can anyone point me to where the problem would be? If there is some menu lurking from a prior installation (must be LONG ago, it is seeming), how can I restore ...

The Macro menu has a "Set Auto Load..." option, but that seems to be for when UE itself loads, and not tied to the Project. It also has a "Set Macro for File Load/Save" but that seems to be just for when you Open or Save a file, again not tied to the project. I cannot understand this problem at all,...

Hmmm. I have the latest version of UE (21.00.0.1033), and have never customized any menus. But I sure do not see that option in the Project menu. Apparently there is something wrong with my installation, but I have not had any other problems anywhere, at least menu-wise. I looked in the Project sett...
