Bug 8.7.8: notepad is freezing with high cpu usage when sliding down the main split bar towards the bottom

[elecherf]

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.

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.
