Multiselect to the end of rows in Notepad++


I know I can use multi-edit in the following ways:

  • Select something, then hold CTRL and select something else.
  • Hold ALT+SHIFT and use the arrow keys to select multiple lines.
  • Hold ALT+SHIFT and use the END key to select to end of lines.
  • Hold ALT and click and drag the mouse to select a block.

But what I really want is to be able to do is multiselect to the end of rows. Is there any workaround to achieve this instead of using ALT+SHIFT and repeatedly pressing PGDN key through thousand/million of rows?


Solution

  • Click on the first row you want to select, then press Shift+Alt and click on the last row you want to select.
