Issue 2-2-2:
Spelling Suggestion doesn’t work when cursor is at the end of the word touching the line end.

[LTT]

Issue A:
“Never and Keep Original Text when Completes” (or “Never”) is used.
** The responding speed is slower when typing.

Issue B:
“Never and Keep Original Text when Completes” is used.
Type in a new line:
qwerty tes
Select “test” in the candidate list.
** The text changes to:
qwerty qwer

I’m just taking an example. The macro is not necessary. You can set another Action to reproduce the issues.

>What is the Application key?
Maybe you call it “Menu key”:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menu_key
http://robburke.net/images/KeyboardApplicationKey.jpg

It’s recognized as “Application” in EmEditor (shortcut settings).

>How did you assign your key?
We were talking about this key and I haven’t assigned it to anything since you said you would disable the ability:

This one (the last post) is not fixed yet.

[LTT]

>Issue 1 is actually an intentional behavior. Users can be distracted if red wiggly line appears while typing.
Since red wiggly line appears anywhere else while typing, should EOF be the only exception?

———-
Issue 3:
I type “Capi”.
WordComplete (dictionary) shows “capital”.
If I select it, it will be “capital”.
But I hope there’s a way (option) to let it be “Capital”.

———-
Issue 2-2:
Spelling Suggestion doesn’t work when cursor is at the end of the word touching the punctuation or the line end.

———-
Issue 4:
WordComplete properties:
“Options” page:
Number of Characters: 3.

Type 3 letters. The candidate list shows.
Then if I press Backspace key, I think the list should close.

[LTT]

editor.RefreshCommonSettings() is exactly what I was longing for.
I missed reading the changelog of v17.5. Thanks for telling me this.
And thanks for the tireless enhancement!

Issue 4-2:
Changing the settings in “Customize” dialog, only the current window follows the change instantly.

[LTT]

Issue 7:
Please add a search option: Match word.
So “+e” won’t match “+End” or “+Enter” …

Issue 8:
How about exempting comma (,) from being a separator (I think space is enough), so that shortcut keys including comma (e.g. Alt+, ) can be searched out.

Issue 9:
How about adding a search option: Exclude the Paste Recent items.

Issue 10:
Type a string in Search box.
Press any of the keys (Tab/Down/Enter) to leave the box.
** The string is added into the history.
How about at least excepting Tab key?

Issue 11:
Quick Launch remembers the last used category (Commands/Options/Symbols).
** But Keyboard Map doesn’t.

Issue 12:
Maximize/Minimize buttons are necessary.

Issue 13:
Sort by “Command”.
Type something to search.
The sort order reverted.
** But the ▲ is still in “Command” column title.

[LTT]

Some editors are this way and others that way.

My suggestion and reason is:
When editing some (non-standard) docs in TSV or Space-SV view, I need to edit the tab/space as a delimiter to adjust the view. Oftentimes the delimiter could be quite wide so that I have to scroll. And they are here and there. D-clicking would be more convenient.
Though currently when necessary I can enable tab/space as a Marker and use the mouse event to select it, I still hope d-clicking can be used (always, or as an option).

[LTT]

Issue 6-2:
Open a new tab.
Open Keyboard Map.
Press Down key in Keyboard Map window.
** Start window shows in the main window.

[LTT]

Issue 1:
Still unable to select a single tab/space between other characters by d-clicking, even in Normal mode.
Sample:
>(a tab or a space)<

Issue 2:
Don’t you think [Prompt when End of Document is Reached] should be suppressed when doing incremental searching?

[LTT]

New issue:

Sample text (2 lines):
12345
12345

Turn on “Keep Horizontal Cursor Position”.
Select from 2 to 5 using mouse. (Compare it with using keyboard.)
Use “Delete Line” command.
** The current position is between 1 and 2.

[LTT]

Enable Outline Guide in configuration A.
Disable Outline Guide in configuration B.
Try it again.

[LTT]

But I mean the “Abort” command.

When “Incremental” is OFF, “Abort” does NOT empty the filter string.
This is nice. Thus I can switch the view with “Abort” and “Refresh” command conveniently. No need to pick up the string from the history again and again.

The CHM description says: Aborts filtering and empties the filter string.
But I think “Abort” should NOT empty the string in any case. It’s not necessary.

[LTT]

More issues:

Sample text: “www.test.me”

Settings:
Strings in “” are highlighted.

Active String:
Strings in “”: M-clicked = Select.

** Unable to select the URL in “” with M-click.

Now go on with further settings:
Style for strings in “”: Dotted Line.
Style for URLs: Dotted Line (or Underline).

Active String:
URLs: M-clicked = Select.

Now M-click the URL in “”.
** The double quotation marks are included in the selection.

[LTT]

URLs:
Hovered = None (or Decode and Show as Tooltip)
M-Clicked = None (or None + Select)

Percent-encoding:
Hovered = Decode and Show as Tooltip
M-Clicked = None + Select

Sample URL:
http://www.x.com/%20

Issues:
** The Percent-encoding in the URL never shows the tooltip.
** Unable to select the Percent-encoding in the URL with M-clicking.

So is it possible to make the priority adjustable (by reordering the Active String list)?

Is it possible to make the Active-String recognition non-greedy?

[LTT]

Another issue:
Turn on “Keep Horizontal Cursor Position”.
Select some text in the middle of a line.
Use “Delete Line” command.
The line is deleted.
** But the cursor position is now at the beginning of the line.

[LTT]

Again, please also check issue 1.

I have macros that use document.Config.Save(). Annoyingly once I run them, all the shortcut keys for the plug-ins seem to have disappeared. Then I investigate it with default settings and found issue 1.

[LTT]

v17.4.2 Portable/Installer version.
Win 7 32-bit.
Reproduced with default settings.

I checked things again (tested on more configurations) and think my description is precise.

[LTT]

Issue 2 still occurs when a dictionary is used:
Default Settings.
Run Snippets background or foreground.
Enable WordComplete.
Open tab-1 with configuration “Text”. Add a dictionary file in its WordComplete properties.
Open tab-2 with configuration “Bat”.
Go back to tab-1. Input “e”.
** Now in tab-1 (“Text” configuration) WordComplete is *not* using the dictionary.
Disable and enable WordComplete.
Go to tab-2. Input “e”.
** Now in tab-2 (“Bat” configuration) WordComplete is *using the dictionary*.

Disable Snippets totally.
Disable and enable WordComplete.
Now everything is OK.

[LTT]

This also occurs in v17.2.4, but not in v16.9.3.

Hello Yutaka,
Can you reproduce issue 1?
Please fix it.
Thank you.

———-

On the official version of v17.2.0, you can press CTRL + D while the focus is in the list box. You will also be able to press the UP key when the focus is the top line of the list.

Though it’s not a big thing, I think the current design is not good.
1). There’s no accelerator key for the list box. We have to use the mouse, or use another accelerator key for the neighbor control and then use Tab key to jump into the list box. So jumping from the list box is not a handy way.
2). If you want users to use Ctrl+D, you need to add a description somewhere.

How about changing things this way:
Add a label “Fin&d:” to the left of the Search box (since there’s enough room). So we use Alt+D instead of Ctrl+D. It’s just one stroke. And thus we would also have the handy way for the list box (Tab from the Search box).

———-
BTW, There’s an odd behavior in the list box:
Select any item between “URLs” and “Search string (1)”;
Close and reopen the dialog;
** The selection now is moved down.

———-
Another accelerator key issue:
Keyboard:
Alt+N;
Press a shortcut key (e.g. Ctrl+A);
Enter;
Tab; (Now [>] button gets the focus)
Space;
** Now [>] button is disabled. You can not move the focus with the keyboard only, unless the dialog is reactivated.
(Same on [<] button.)

Hello Yutaka,
Maybe you missed this thread.
Please take a look again at issue 2, 3(Minimap), 5, 6.

[LTT]

Issue 1 is not fixed yet in v17.2.0 beta 3.

Configuration properties: Display:
Is there an accelerator key for the Search box?

[LTT]

Correction:
Issue 2 is actually caused by Snippets:
Run Snippets background or foreground.
Enable WordComplete.
Open tab-1 with configuration “x86 Assembler”.
Open tab-2 with configuration “Bat”.
Go back to tab-1.
Input “e”.
** You can see that in tab-1 WordComplete is using the keywords for configuration “Bat”.

Issue 6:
Set “Bat” as default configuration.
Enable WordComplete.
Exit.
Restart.
Input “e”.
** WordComplete will not load the keywords, unless you disable and enable it again, or select the configuration again.

[LTT]

>Issue 2:
Thanks for the clue.
I tested in v17.1.4 and confirmed that both issue 1 and 2 were caused by certain old plug-ins.
So the only choice is to find and remove them?

If the reply is still needed:
I can tell it because the contents of Highlight (1) and the settings of WordComplete are different between A and B.

——————–
>Issue 3:
+ Minimap
+ Status bar

——————–
Issue 5:
When a configuration name is obsolete, the data needs to be cleared in such entries:
HKCU\Software\EmSoft\EmEditorPlugIns\WordComplete
HKCU\Software\EmSoft\EmEditorPlugIns\OutlineText
