Hi, I am new to CudaText, and it is so good that I want to use it replace notepad++.
And now I have a question about how to open files all in one cudatext? Now when I open a file in explorer context, it will create a new instance of cudatext, but not a tab. It is better to open these files in new tabs but not new instances of cudatext.

Options-->Settings-user, add the below:
"ui_one_instance": true,

I also a newer.
If you want to modify one feature:
you can search one key word in default.json (Options-->Settings-default);
then copy it into user.son (Options-->Settings-user).

For example, to modify actions related to mouse,
you can search 'mouse' in default.json.

Hi man, I knew you. The guy in notepad++ forums. Yes, I heard cudatext from your post there. Thank you.

And after setting that, I need to close the app and reopen it. Otherwise, the app crashed when I open files from explorer context.

Yes, That is me.
Let us study Cuda together.

Now have any problem with "one instance"?

I will check this crash on Win10, to see.

I tested the Win10 and could not repeat the crash when ui_one_instance is changed. Do you see it always, do you repeat crash in clean CudaText?

I also did not repeat this.
I guess the crash just one time only at the moment when ui_one_instance is changed.
After restart CudaText, maybe everything is OK.

I tired it in all ways, without restart of course.

Ho my god, i was understand wrong.
This is reason default.json is read only, this file is a sample of the keys to configure the CudaText. O.o
It would be easier to understand if the name was like ( Setting->sample ). hehehe
Allrigth, its work fine.
Thanks
