Cursor moved upon saving file

[rajkej]

If my cursor is at the end of a source code line and I save the file using the default save command, my cursor is moved to the right one character.

Not really a big deal but seems odd.

What are your save options ?

Tools > Options... > File Options... > Save...

[rajkej]

append eof: off
remove eof: on
expand tabs: expand all tabs to spaces
strip trailing spaces: strip all trailing spaces
save files on loss: off
reset modified: off
add file to project upon save as: off

And I can open a file, move cursor to last character of line, save file and the cursor moves. Move cursor to end of line, save file and cursor moves.

Does the cursor move if you turn off "expand tabs to spaces"?

[rajkej]

I just tried individual combinations of the remove eof, expand tabs, and strip trailing spaces and the cursor moved each time. I tried saving both .py and .h files with the same result on each.

Does the column actually change (see bottom right, on status bar), or is there just a visible movement of the cursor?

Yes. The column changes and the box showing the hex value updates from 0A to blank.
I changed the Tools/Options/Editing/CursorMovement/Cursor right-left wraps to next-prev line from my normal setting of 'off' to 'on' and the cursor still moved to the right (not the next line). But if I move the cursor myself, it moves to the next line. However, if I click to that same spot, the cursor goes to where I click. My settings for cursor up/down virtual space is on and click past end of line is on. I changed both of those to off and the cursor still moved.

What happens if you type "save" on the SlickEdit command line?

Same thing as when I use my normal save button. The cursor moves one spot to the right.

Reproduced. This should be easy to fix. Thanks

You are using the +FU option in your save options. V19 has new code for multiple cursor/selection support which adjusts cursors on edits. That's why you're seeing this problem. The save code is modifying the new-lines which moves cursors.
