Also it XXE doesn't scroll after the expanding selection properly: if the child that was just added to the selection with "Esc Right-Arrow" was out of the display, it will only shows the topmost line of the newly selected children. This is inconvenient because it's hard to tell this way if I want to expand the selection further, since I don't see what's the end of the lastly added child. In fact, for the same reason I should see the first line of the child that is *after* the newly selected child. In general XXE has some major problems with standard text editor functionality regarding selection + scrolling. Like there is the issue with Shift + Down-Arrow and Shift + Up-Arrow, when XXE simply doesn't scroll after the expanding end of the selection. It feels like nobody but me select stuff that doesn't fit completely into the display port, so it only bothers me... strange. -- Best regards, Daniel Dekany
