      Hello,

      I’m facing blocking bug with last 8.7.8 and previous release:

      When I’m sliding down the split bar toward the bottom to expnad the main panel.
      2025-03-10 09_41_32-Window.png

      Then notepad++ is consuming high cpu usage and freezing.
      Even if I kill the application, which solved the problem before, now, it does not.

      So I’ve tried to upgrade to 8.7.8, but it is the same.

      Please help

      Thank you
      Emmanuel

        @elecherf update: This is the plugin BookmarksDook which causes the problem

          Well, I’ve tried to install, reinstall notepad++ and plugins separately.
          Looks there is some conflict with plugin EnhanceAnyLexer and notepad++ impacting BookmarkDook panel.

          For now, what I’ve understood is that EnhanceAnyLexer is not compatible with np++ 8.7.8 at some points.
          So using 8.7.7 until I clarify

            EnhanceAnyLexer does not use any of the new features/improvements introduced by Npp recently.
            I have tested with BookmarksDook installed and can confirm that I see the same behavior, but further testing has shown that this also happens when BookmarksDook is the only plugin, besides the default plugins.
