SlickEdit® / Re: typed characters are appearing out of order

« Last post by Chris Nisbet on Today at 05:57:39 pm »

Thanks, I'll give it a try when I get a chance. For now, what seems to have helped is to use a completely fresh config (with minimal customisation), and completely recreate my workspace. I haven't had much time to look at this in the last few days, but those changes seem to have made things a lot better. I still see a little bit of the 'stickyness', and I think I might have seen the out of order chars once or twice, but that really might have been due to operator error, so wouldn't swear to it.

I can verify that this is still an issue. I must have accidentally saved the file before.

SlickEdit 2023 v28 Beta Discussion / ctrl+click-mutiple cursor : how do i get old mouse cursor instead of cross ?

« Last post by jcelle on Today at 08:11:57 am »

Hello,
Is there a way to keep the mouse cursor unchanged when you start a multiple cursor selection using ctrl+click ?
The 'new' cross is not really convenient for me.
Could not find a way to configure it.
Thanks.

I haven't reproduced it yet, but it sounds like it could be tricky to reproduce.

One thing that might help is to see is if the problem can be reproduced with the Qt5 verion of 27.0.2.  If you want to try this, you can just install the Qt5 versions in a different directory and leave your current 27.0.2 untouched.

The installer is at: https://support.slickedit.com/outbound/2702/se_27000200_linux64qt5.tar.gz

If you hit the same problem with the Qt5 version, let us know - it will help narrow down the problem at least.

Hmm, the problem seems to go away (both stickiness and out of order chars) when I turn autocomplete off. I haven't had any success with my initial settings adjustments though (lots of options, and lots of guesswork involved).
Interestingly, using a new configuration using the -sc option made no difference - problem still there.

You could try turning off auto completion completely - search the options dialog for auto-complete and untick "enable auto-complete".  If the problem goes away, in options -> editing -> context tagging, you could try adjusting the auto complete settings.  If no success you could try turning off background tagging, don't think that will help though.  You could try turning off symbol coloring  -> language -> appearance - untick "symbol coloring" also probably won't help though.  Another thing to try - run slick with a new empty configuration folder (vs.exe -sc some-new-folder) and open your workspace and try.

Someone else reported typing lag here - but not keys out of order

SlickEdit® / Re: typed characters are appearing out of order

« Last post by Chris Nisbet on September 23, 2023, 04:27:11 am »

It's very easy to repro - a few seconds typing two different characters is usually enough. Oddly, it often happens after the first few characters in a sequence.
The profile output doesn't mean much to me, but here is what I got (attached) after typing this...
apapapapapaappap

(I actually typed apapapap..., but note how things went wrong towards the end).

Note that this problem doesn't seem to happen if I close my usual workspace down and just enter characters into a single (empty) file.
The workspace itself if pretty simple - it contains three C projects.
I just went through the largest of them and pruned out as many files as I could get away with from it, and then re-tagged it. No difference - the problem still occurs.

If it's not hard to repro, and it's associated with a screen freeze, you could try the slick C profiler and see what is happening when it freezes.
