F3 / F4 function in version 9.1

[polfi67]

I just installed version 9.1 after 8.8. When selecting more files than before, F3 / F4 loaded all files into the selected editor.
The new one doesn't do this, or I just can't find the switch where this can be set?

Can you describe the problem in more detail?

In TC UP 9.1 everything works as it should, you can open several files in one application at the same time with F3/F4.

Did you do a clean install of TC UP 9.1 or did you overwrite the existing 8.8?

It was a clean install. The problem is that if I select multiple files at once and press F3/F4, the editor starts, but only one file is loaded, not all of them.

You should have recorded only a white background, I'm a fortune teller and I can guess what you're doing...

Show the whole window

Does it happen only on this specific extension or on all of them?

Remember that I can't read your mind and the more information you give me, the easier it will be to solve the problem.

As I wrote - everything works fine for me, this problem is only for you - so I need to know what you are doing to figure out why it is.

To be safe, I did a clean install. The attached video was made after the installation. I select the two files and press F3. Notepad++ starts, but only one of the files loads. When I copy an image and repeat the operation, it appears that even though the two bat files are selected, the image view is displayed and not Notepad++.
My question is what and where should I set it to make opening two files at the same time work.
Thanks

Thank you for your report.
TC UP Opener let you open more then 1 file at once. However, you have to know that it should be files with the same extension.
So, selecting 2 files with the same extension should work fine. But if you select one file with .bat extension and other with .jpg extension this two files will be opened in application associated with first selected file (here, our bat file). If first selected file is jpg it will be opened in XnView (bat file is not supported in xnview...).

I checked it in my installation and everything works - 2 bat files are opened in notepad++. 
Ps: I do not see any selection on your video...  Are you sure you select both files?

In the first half of the sent video (second 2), it is clear that two files with the same extension are selected. Then, for clarity, I clicked the F3 button with the mouse. After that (second 4), Notepad++ appears and only one file was loaded. It is the file that the cursor is on.
In the next step, I copy a third file (png), and then I can see that I select the first two (bat files). You can see that their color has changed, so they are selected, while the third png file is not selected, the cursor is just on it. After that, I press F3 again. One would expect NotePad++ to open the selected bat files, but instead XnView opens.
All I can say about myself is that I have been working as a programmer for 30 years, so I know when what is selected.

Great. Thank you for your explanation!
If you selected 2 files with the same extension - 2 files should be opened in N++ (essociated app). If not - something is wrong.
I tested it on my machine - and it opened 2 files - but in comparison mode (with N++ plugin, something like Winmerge). I am almost sure the bug is her.

I will try to fix it. The key question is - do you use ComparePlus plugin for N++? Or this is disabled for you?

I press F3 again.

Press F4

[Pawel]

Press F4

Or, remove the line from wincmd.ini
Comparetool="%COMMANDER_PATH%\MEDIA\Programs\Notepad++\Notepad++.exe" -pluginMessage=compare

Then you can use F3 like always
