      My default style - selected text background color is set to light blue.
      When the tab isn’t in focus, for example in case of Ctrl F dialog, settings popups, multiple documents opened,
      the selected text background color changes to quite dark grey.

      No such color change in previous versions.

      Is this a bug, or there is a setting for this case.

        It is not a bug, but there is not yet a setting. It’s new from the Scintilla 5 upgrade. See SC_ELEMENT_SELECTION_INACTIVE_BACK.

        Cheers.

          @donho ,

          Thanks for the effort and for the new version, much appreciated.

          I recently added N++ version check in my plugins and noticed that there is an issue with NPPM_GETNPPVERSION message.
          In Notepad++ v8.3.3 LOWORD(version) gives 33 which is OK but
          in Notepad++ v8.4 LOWORD(version) gives 4 which should be 40 in my understanding.

          Tell me if I should file an issue for that or you will fix it “on the fly”, thanks.

            I see that there is already an issue for that: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11535.

            Sorry for writing about it here again, it is of course not connected with N++ 8.4 itself.

                If you think it is a bug, you can create an issue. You could also use a scripting plugin like NppExec or PythonScript to adjust it.

                Cheers.

                            Has anyone else noticed that reloading a file with CTRL+R makes the code style and/or fold levels disappear until you refocus the tab?

                            This regression was initially blamed on the NppFTP plugin
                            until I reproduced it myself: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11585#issuecomment-1111979650

                              It appears to just keep the same background color of selection with the window in or out of focus. Thanks @donho !

                              Cheers.

                                  The user defined syntax colors disappear after reloading the program by pressing Ctrl-R.
                                  I have to click on the language again to make the syntax color active again.

                                      Updated to Notepad++ 8.4 and still cannot save a XML file with ~46000 words - Notepad++ is not responding. When I copy all code and paste it in a new file I can save it. Using Symantec Encryption Desktop on my pc.

                                        The XML Tools plugin is probably the cause: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/11603#issuecomment-1111879226

                                          Hi!

                                          The default colors of html and php codes in the editor do not work as expected.

                                          1.png

                                            @ffgmusik ,

                                            The PHP lexer renders tag names using the Style Configurator > PHP > DEFAULT style. And the initial setting for that style is black text on white background, which is what your screenshot shows.

                                            79aa1b20-8c0d-48ab-abc0-3d4a0df30149-image.png

                                            The HTML would render similar text slightly differently:

                                            2c8a5e36-760c-4354-9f5f-8a6e951b689c-image.png

                                            This is because it uses the HTML > TAG style for rendering tag names:
