Okay, so first off i would like to thank the developer of this.
I used Notepad++ before, but more and more there were a few things that i just didn´t liked about it.
So i searched for a better Text Editor that fits my needs (i´m only creating Autohotkeys Scripts as a hobby). CudaText was the best one.
The amount of customization is astounding. It does everything Notepad++ does and much more. Exactly what i wanted.
However, there are some questions i have which i didn´t understand yet correctly. Remember, i´m only a simple User and not a Coder, but i´m trying to explain them as good as i can.
1.
Every Font has strange Spaces in it.
I tried out different Fonts and every one of them has strange spaces in it:
The only one i see so far that works correct are "Consolas" and "Courrier New":
But even the Font "Arial", simply the most default used Font on Windows, has this problem:
Is this a bug or what is going on?
Currently i want to use a Font named "Droid Sans", which i also used on NP++, and i want to continue using this Font in CudaText, but these Spaces between characters is just awful.
I even tried out a fresh CudaText Installation without any changes. As soon as i change to any of the above mentioned Fonts, i get these Spaces.
2.
In NP++, in the Context Menu (Mouse right Click) there was an option to "Block Comment" and "Unblock Comment". Basically a quick way to disable some text.
Is this possible in CudaText?

In NP++, if you doubleclicked a Word, it highlights it. In addition it also highlighted all other Words that are similar.
In the screenshot you can see i doubleclicked on "FirstTimeSetup2" (in NP++), it then highlights it, but also highlights all the other similar words in other lines.
This is not possible in CudaText right now. There is a plugin called "Highlight Occurrences", which kind of does what i want. However, it immediately highlights all other similar words without doubleclick. Also i can´t change the color of it.
Is this somehow possible in CudaText without this plugin?
Thanks so much for answering any of my questions.

1. That is probably because CudaText only supports monospaced fonts. 'Droid Sans Mono' should work, but probably not 'Droid Sans'
2. In main menu: 'Plugins > Comments > Toggle stream comment'
3. By default "Highlight Occurrences" uses color "BracketBg", which can be changed: "Options > Settings-theme-syntax". And regarding double-click - did you try changing option 'caret_allow' to 'true' in 'Options > Settings-plugins > Highlight Occurrences > Config...' ?
