Be more verbose, I did not understand: "how to folding not match, like notepad 3".

before "Focused View"

after "Focused View"

the lines contain find text would be shown, others would be folded

Cud cannot do that. I tried the "fold selected lines" cmd, but it don't support multi-selections. Multi-selections can be made by Find dialog [...] / "Select all", then "Selection / Invert selection".

Checked the API. found Editor.folding() API. https://wiki.freepascal.org/CudaText_API#Editor.folding
it can do FOLDING_ADD (add fold range - you can create it for any lines). and FOLDING_FOLD (fold any range). so plugin is possible here. plugin can fold all lines except the lines with carets. so user puts carets (via Find dialog), then calls the plugin.

I wrote this plugin: it's in the zip file here,
https://github.com/kvichans/cuda_ext/issues/203
Open zip file in CudaText to install it.
It adds menu item "Plugins / Fold lines w/o carets".
Later it will be integrated to CudaExt.
Please test.

it is not perfect, but yes, that 's the way that i want

1. fold should be start on the line that is found , and stop on the line that is found
the lines that i marked should be fold
2. all lines which are found should be shown, but now, only the line i choose is shown

3. so i chose all lines which are found, then run , that is more like that i want, except the line before and the line after(marked at more.png)

I don't understand how you get your 1st screenshot and last screenshot. plugin must remove all fold-ranges first, so existing {...} ranges must not mess with plugin.

I do in 'history files.json'
- enter 'tab_spaces', call in dialog - [...] / Select all
- call plugin
I get good picture--

what do you mean "only the line I choose"? I called [...]/Select_all, so editor puts multi-carets on 'tab_spaces', I don't need to choose anything.

maybe you had _folded_ ranges before calling my new plugin?

can fold be revent when i run it again?

you mean 'reverted'? you can right-click the gutter-fold-column, choose 'Unfold all'. ok?
