When typing a word, i see flickers

Sorry! This is caused by auto-completion. I never use it. Maybe I turned it on by accident.
But the fact of flickering of an empty field…
Sorry for flooding.
ps
Thanks for the update! I am glad that the project is developing. -

not a 7.7. issue, deselecting Match whole word only makes it work.

Telling us that you have a problem doesn’t help you to solve your problem.
Describing it by providing more detail information does. -

I heard you. Did I say that this bug won’t be fixed?
BTW, just as you, I have a daily job so I can feed my family, and I have also my personal life.
So be patient, or fix it by your own (it’s an open source project after all) - I don’t owe you anything. -
@donho, it seems you’re are bit frustrated/tensed today. Hope, things are fine. Please relax and take care.

I’m receiving sql queries by email that I open with npp and I then copy the file content to sql manager program in order to execute them, well, with 7.7 Greek characters are displayed like Chinese, I rolled back to 7.6.6 and they display properly -
@donho , Thank you for scintilla update. It can’t have been easy, fun, or glamorous, but I appreciate the work.

I upgraded from 7.5.9 to 7.7 (32-bit) and:
- I lost Explorer plugin
- If I install Explorer 1.8.5 plugin using Plugins Admin, I get an error about hash mismatch and plugin is not installed.
- The Plugin Manager doesn’t work anymore but still shows up among my plugins
- If I attempt to remove Plugin Manager using Plugin Admin it just does nothing
- After reinstalling my previous version 7.5.9, the notepad is no longer functional
It seems that release v7.7 is very unstable and has some major issues.
-
Please take these issues to a separate thread; it is meant to keep this thread clean for real 7.7 issues. [Your issue isn’t related to 7.7 but rather the coming of Plugins Admin (N++ 7.6+) and the deprecating of Plugin Manager (used in 7.5.9 and earlier)].

- The Plugin Manager doesn’t work anymore but still shows up among my plugins
@chcg Could Plugin Manager be removed from the list ? Since it stops working for a while.

It’s already done, see >>> this commit <<< . The problem is: at most users systems it is already present and of course they migrate it to the new plugins directory structure like they do with their other plugins.

Could it be treated like “unstable plugins” are (or were?) – ie, moved to a
disabled\subdirectory? I know that through 7.5.9, when I would upgrade Notepad++ (either through the auto-update, or by downloading the new install package and installing over top the old copy), it would identify PreviewHTML as an “unstable” plugin, in move it to thedisabledsubdir, so I always had to go move it back into the main plugins directory so that I could use it. Is that feature still there, or could it be added back in for the old PluginManager? -

Why would you like to “save” the old PluginManager? @chcg stated somewhere that he wants to keep it alive to the end of 2019. When the plugin list servers will be taken offline it will be useless. The plugin admin system at bruderste.in already lacks a valid SSL certificate and it seems like plugin updates are not applied to the plugin list anymore.
EDIT: @PeterJones Forget what I wrote above, I’ve missed your point.

What about Explorer plugin? Why is explicitly disabled and why the new does not installs?
