It would have scrolled twice, but with you in charge rather than NV being triggered by an event signal from Calibre. Closing NV precluded you from recovering from your PC's eating of the event signal.

I found the reason.

If the respectice column is not shown in the list_view, the scrolling doesn't work

--Read the EPOM Tooltips for the Dotall flag, plus all the others too.

--Do what is stated in the 'added' in my last post, and learn why.

--Add a '?' in your regex where suggested in the Tooltips.

--Teach yourself regular expressions by trial-and-error in Pythex, using the cheat-sheet as a reference.

--Find an online Python regular expression tutorial, and take it, paying special attention to the Multiline and Dotall flags. Trial-and-error is highly educational if you use one of your real example texts.

You should have said days ago that you were using NV to try to view hidden columns. Days ago I would have told you 'no'. Of course you cannot view a column that is hidden. It was hidden by you to expressly not view it.

If I had thought about it days ago, I would not have asked here.
I just didn't notice it at the time - sorry
