CED 5.6 has issue with text highlighter.

Post by my_pc_is_amiga »

If I select text and then scroll I see the highlighted graphic messed up as though not everything is getting refreshed. I see it on Amiga native as well as RTG screen. Not seen on CED 3.5. See image.

Do you get the same when you start without startup-sequence and then CED?

Yes, still happens without startup-sequence. I opened up CygnusEd from the boot shell without workbench loaded.

Which Amiga model are you using and which operating system version are you running?

This is a A4000T with a 060 on 3.2 with 3.2 ROMs. But I also was able to blizkick OS3.1 ROMs and boot 3.1OS and see it in OS3.1 as well.

Thank you, I have a hunch as to what might be causing this, but had little success in reproducing the problem locally. You using the A4000T points into a certain direction worth exploring, though :-)

Main way to reproduce is to first highlight and then use scroll bar to move up and down.

I found and fixed the problem :)

The cause was "cleverly" hidden by the choice of scrolling options which I had been using for years. If you use File->Set scroll jump->8 Pixels like I did, then the problem would not appear when scrolling. But all other choices (1 pixel, 2 pixels, 4 pixels) would show the problem. The solution is to turn off the highlighting before scrolling takes place.
