Hi,
Thanks for the latest build.
I'd like to report 2 long-standing bugs in PSpad. It is still in the current
build.
Bug #1 - Tabs are inserted at the end of a paste operation equal to the number
of tabs that start the line if: Real-tabs are ON and Trim-Trailing-Spaces is ON
To replicate:
A1) Turn real-tabs ON and trim-trailing-spaces ON
A2) select a line of text such as:
>>[TAB]response.buffer=true<<
** '>>' represents the start of a line
** '<<' represents the end of a line
A3) select text, starting at the 'r' of response and at the 'b' of buffer.
A4) CTRL-C or Copy
A5) arrow down several lines.
A6) make sure auto-indent is on or hit TAB to indent at least 1 tab.
A7) CTRL-V or Paste.
A8) you get:
>>[TAB]response.b[TAB]{{{cursor is here}}}<<
if you tab in twice from the left edge and hit CTRL-V or Paste, you get:
>>[TAB][TAB]response.b[TAB][TAB]{{{cursor is here}}}<<
if you're 3-tabs in, you get
>>[TAB][TAB][TAB]response.b[TAB][TAB][TAB]{{{cursor is here}}}<<
-----------
Bug #1 - This does not happen if trim-trailing spaces if OFF.
However,
Bug #2 - Artifacts appear on screen if 'Trim-Trailing-Spaces' is OFF and 'Real
Tabs' is ON
If 'Trim-Trailing-Spaces' is OFF, PSPad leaves artifacts when you delete the
text on a line and if the line starts with a leading [TAB]. The artifacts look
like a thin, non-blinking cursor or | (pipe) character. It looks like this
>>[TAB]|
to replicate,
B1) turn 'Trim-Trailing-Spaces' to OFF. Turn 'Real Tabs' to ON
B2) have a screen that looks like:
>>This is text on my screen
>>[TAB]
>>[TAB]this.something=1<<
B2) select/highlight 'this.something=1'
B3) hit delete.
B4) arrow up to the previous line.
the screen now looks like:
>>This is text on my screen
>>[TAB]{{{cursor is here}}}
>>[TAB]|<<
B5) No character is actually where the '|' is on the last line, but there is an
artifact on the screen there.
-----------
Please let me know if you need more information to fix these issues. Thanks.
