change.log causes display of last active tab to be wrong tab

Jeronymite

Updated to 8.4.5. Thanks!
Noticed that adding the change.log tab causes the most recent active tab MINUS 1 to be displayed at startup, rather than the actual last active tab. Almost seems like it’s using a tab index of the last tab, but forgetting to increase that index by 1 when the change.log tab is added as the first tab.

@Jeronymite ,

You are right, when Notepad++'s update automatically adds change.log to the session on the first load after update, it doesn’t change the active tab index to match. Your explanation seems a pretty good guess as to what’s going on behind the scenes.

If you would like that behavior to change, please read the Bug Report FAQ to find out how and where to submit a bug report where the Developer will actually track the bug, since we are a Community of users and cannot make changes to the application from this discussion forum.
