Smart highlighter not working correct

[akniesel]

Describe the bug
When I highlight a word with double click, only at the current scroll bar position the lines are highlighted:

Only if I scroll the scroll bar from top to bottom, the positions are displayed correctly:

Environment

• OS: Win10 64
• Notepad++ Version 8.6.4
• jN Version 2.2.185.10

I have observed this behavior in the past, but can not reproduce now. I believe it was a setting of N++ I changed.

Can you please share screenshots of Preferences:

• General
• Editing
• Highlighting
• Searching
• MISC.

Did you have another N++ version which behaves differently?

I tried also older Versions of the plugin as well as NPP, but no success.

I have the same issue like @akniesel
Workaround for me is to use the plugin

@akniesel if you would read through #82, would you mind to have same observations?

I could reproduce your observation with 8.6.4. It is some kind of optimization on either Scintilla or N++, some of them notifies plugin about update on the styling of only currently visible text. If you switch between tabs, jn-npp-plugin forces update for styling of the entire text.

I will check what are our options.

Any updates so far?
