Which Notepad++ plugin is highlighting my HTML colors?

Solution 1

I think that you are referring to the HTML Color plugin. You can find it here

Solution 2

Check Quick Color Picker for Notepad++.

The plugin puts the colored underline under the color code based on it's value and thus is not obtrusive in reading the text.

I'm using it without any issues with the Notepad++ v6.9.2

Solution 3

I think that feature was taken out of Notepad++ due to the users' inability to read the text at times if the colors were too overwhelming. Instead, I recommend trying to install the Quick Color Picker or HTML Color plugins. They are about as close as you're going to get:

Quick Color Picker: https://code.google.com/p/nppqcp/

HTML Color: http://npp.campulka.net/

Source: Notepad++ hover preview on link or color?

    I have a plugin that I installed that does this:

    Notepad++ color highlighting

    I really like this function (highlighting HTML colors) but I don't know plugin does it. I want to put it on the another copy of Notepad++ but installing plugins is a rather big thing and I don't want to have to install them all - it gets cumbersome.

    Does anyone know which plugin highlights my colors? It's a wonderful feature.

    Thanks, and nice plugin, but I don't have that one installed. It automagically highlights my colors...hey, waitaminute..it's Notepad#. Thanks anyways!
