Hi,
thank you for the editor enhancements in 720.1680. It looks and works great and is really useful!
Is there a way to show tabs and spaces, eg. in a lighter color, as '>' and '.'?
There is a similar issue: When selecting whole lines, it paints the selection color up to the right window border. Thus I can't recognize, where there are any unwanted spaces behind the last visible character. If it is not too complicated or too slow, I would suggest that line selections should only highlight actual line content.
Regards,
Freewater

Not currently but I will register a ticket and we will check into this.

Changing the current selection behavior is probably not a good idea since the way it currently works is standard in most text editing tools.
Wouldn't your first request to highlight non-printable characters solve this request as well?

Re: How to show tabs and spaces?
Hi Roger,
thank you for registering a request. Of course showing tabs and spaces would be far more valuable than the selection issue could ever be.
But I attached three images showing the different behaviour in EditPlus, Notepad and DBVis.

Hi,
"Show non-printable characters " is now supported in the 8.0.2 version.
