      Hello,
      I have struggle with my cursor and line markup in notepad++. Sometimes there are multiple line marked or the cursor jumps to an other line. Does anybody has an idea why it behaves so strange?

        I’ve never seen it do that.

        Can you share your ?-menu’s Debug Info?

        Also, can you paste a screenshot of your Settings > Preferences > Editing 2 settings?

        And look at Settings > Style Configurator > Language: Global Styles, and look through the various Styles, and see if anything other than the Current line background colour has that pale blue background.

        Also, does that list of Styles have Multi-selected text colour and Multi-edit carets color? – If not, your theme (or stylers.xml) might be out-of-date (see User Manual’s description of how to manually keep configuration files in sync after an upgrade and my Topic “Config Files Need Updating, Too”, which links to a script for the PythonScript plugin that can help you keep your themes/stylers in sync with the most recent Notepad++.

          thank you for your time.

          Here is the Debug Info:

          Notepad++ v8.7.5 (64-bit)

          Path : C:\Program Files\Notepad++\notepad++.exe
          Command Line :
          Admin mode : OFF
          Local Conf mode : OFF
          Cloud Config : OFF
          Periodic Backup : ON
          Placeholders : OFF
          DirectWrite : ON
          Multi-instance Mode : monoInst
          File Status Auto-Detection : cdEnabledNew (for current file/tab only)
          Dark Mode : OFF
          OS Name : Windows 11 Home (64-bit)
          OS Version : 24H2

          And no, nothing else has the same pale blue color. If I change the Current line background colour I have multiple marked lines with the new color. Some of them are also blinking.

            Sorry, I don’t see anything out of the ordinary. Hopefully, someone else will be able to come in and provide some guidance, because I don’t know what could cause such a glitch.
