MarkdownViewer++ synchronized scrolling not working
-
I just installed MarkdownViewer++ and tried it out. Love it except that synchronized scrolling doesn’t work. Neither window pane scrolls when I scroll the other.
I enabled the Plugins > MarkdownViewer > Synchronize scrolling option. When that didn’t work I quit and restarted Notepad++, but that didn’t help.
My Notepad++ is v8.6 (64-bit), running under Windows 11. Plugin Manager says I have version 0.8.2, which I understand to be the latest.
Do you have any ideas about what might be wrong?

If this is the one you’re talking about, it hasn’t been updated in over 5 years and Notepad++ and the editing component Scintilla have gone through many an update since then. I used to use this one too as well as another and I believe sync scrolling stopped working for me sometime ago.
I now use MarkdownPanel (actually, my fork of it) and it has seen some attention as of late. You may want to give that one a shot instead.
Cheers.

Yes, that’s the one. I got it from NP++'s Plugin Admin command. The command lists Markdown Panel too, but not a hint that one is more or less current and the other is fossilized.
I tried Markdown Panel. “Synchronize with caret” has no effect, but “Synchronize with first line in window” seems to work well. That’s good enough.
Thank you.

I tried Markdown Panel. “Synchronize with caret” has no effect . . .
That feature is still blocked by an open issue with the .NET plugin infrastructure, although nothing really prevents the plugin developer from patching it himself, as @Michael-Vincent has already demonstrated.
