Instead, those shortcuts\ndo activate the expected Zen-Coding behavior in Notepad++ (e.g. Ctrl+E will\nexpand the abbreviation, if any), *even though the Notepad++ window is not\nin focus*.\n\nAs soon as I close Notepad++, all shortcuts work again in their respective\napplications (I don't have to restart Photoshop or anything).\n\nFrom what I can tell, this problem affects any application (I just made\nquick tests with ACDSee and Thunderbird, which both use Ctrl+E for some\npurpose, and it didn't work when Notepad++ was running) and it only affects\nshortcuts which are used by Zen-Coding (standard Notepad++ shortcuts don't\ninterfere with external applications).\n\nSo everything works as if the Zen-Coding shortcuts are defined for the\nwhole system (OS) and not for the context of the application (Notepad++)\nonly, as it should.\n\nI have experienced a similar problem on another computer running Windows 7\nUltimate.\n\nEdit : I just updated Notepad++ to the latest version (5.6.8) but the\nproblem remains.\n\n```\n\n-----\nOriginal issue reported on code.google.com by `vincent....@gmail.com` on 1 Jun 2010 at 8:11\n* Merged into: #17"}}
