 I want to be able to configure settings for a particular program (Notepad++). One setting is for startup, and another setting is for window placement and size. For example, I want to be able to use Notepadd+ as I usually would, but when needed, apply a hotkey to move the program to a specific location and resize it. I know how to create the settings, but I don't know how to invoke the second set unless I manually change them. I want to be able to have a hotkey invoke the settings. Is this possible, and if so, how can I achieve this?

 Hi James,

Thank you for your request.

In the described situation, I'd recommend the following:

1. Put usual Notepad++ window configuration into its specific window settings (create new or use existing entry, if any) so that they will apply automatically every time you open a new N++ window.

2. Add a Combo custom hotkey and include the Align/Resize window actions into its combo sequence, then press that hotkey when you need to apply a specific position/size to a certain N++ window. (Note: that hotkey then can be used for any active window, not only N++ one.)

Hope this will help.
