C-n Next Difference
C-p Previous Difference

When I press those shortcut, It often stop move suddenly.

e.g.

When I press C-n in left panel, still the last line, and press C-p,
what i expect is move to previous difference file, but no happen.

version: 4.1.5

This behavior is work fine in bc3.

Thanks.

Could you post a full screen screenshot of where the selection is currently stopped, and which hotkey you are attempting to use? If you use the other hotkey to travel in the other direction, does this work to go back?

Which Linux OS are you running, which version, and is it 32bit or 64bit?

BC 4.1.5.21031 64-bit
Ubuntu 12.04.5 64-bit
XFCE desktop environment

I'm not sure if this is the same issue.

Text file comparison session.

If I use Ctrl+N / Ctrl+P, when I reach the last / first difference, and press the hot key again, a message window appears for about 1/2 second at the bottom indicating "Difference not found," and then that window disappears. The hot keys work properly, except for the fact that the message window disappears.

If I use the Next Section / Prev Section toolbar buttons, or the Search menu functions Next Difference Section / Previous Difference Section, the "Difference not found" message window correctly appears and remains there (until I perform another action to clear the condition).

I don't recall if this occurred in BC 4.1.4.

Not sure if that's related, but I've reproduced this issue and opened a tracker entry to get this fixed.

Cool.

System: Opensuse 42.1, X86_64

When use C-n, postion is reach the last difference, C-p is always not work.

But Alt+up is always work correctly in this case.

Hello,

I've set up a test VM with OpenSuse 42.1 with a fresh BC4.1.5 install using the .rpm. My ctrl+n and +ctrl+p commands remain responsive and work. Perhaps this is something specific with your settings or environment. Could you email in your BCSupport.zip to [email protected] with a link back to this forum thread?

Do you have an alternate machine to quickly test with our trial? Or able to back up your current settings with Tools -> Export, then attempt to restore to defaults with the Tools menu?

[zw963]

Thanks for reply, I export my config, and restore default, it work fine now.

according becompare all difference, i found the problem is caused by BCPreference.xml,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- Produced by Beyond Compare 4 from Scooter Software -->
<BCPreferences Version="1" MinVersion="1">
	<TBcPrefs>
		<NextDiffShowMsg Value="False"/>
	</TBcPrefs>
</BCPreferences>

if setting with this, will cause this strange bug.

[Aaron]

Thanks! I've tried toggling this option on my own test system, but did not see it reproduce. Could we still get your current BCSupport.zip sent to [email protected] with a link back to this forum thread?

[zw963]

Sent.

Does this fixed or reproduce?
