With an html tab open in Book View, click on Help->About. After dismissing the resulting About dialog, immediately change to CodeView. Before scrolling or doing anything else: clicking in CodeView to reposition the cursor introduces weird highlighting and missing/doubled lines of text. It's quite atrocious. Scrolling far enough up or down (with either the mousewheel or the vertical scrollbar) seems to remedy the problem.
It doesn't have to be the Help dialog. Any sort of focus activity (like the LinkStylesheets dialog) with BookView open will manifest the issue when first switching to CodeView.
Qt5.12.0 appears to be disaster for Sigil's CodeView.  At least it's not destructive. |
FWIW, I finally got qtwebkit to build with Qt 5.12.0 by disabling the building of qtwebkit test code. The test code is severely broken on macOS under XCode 10.
Interestingly, the late change to qsyntaxhighlighter.cpp did make it into Qt 5.11.3 but NOT into the official Qt 5.12.0 source archive. With official Qt 5.12.0 on macOS, I am not seeing any issues with CodeView at all. So whatever the problem, it appears to be Linux only.
