Please attach a screenshot of what you're seeing. In my web browser, the segment of code you've attached appears to contain a lot of special characters. Are you using non-default character set, key mapping, etc. that could be contributing to the problem? Any information you can provide about what might be special about your configuration, what you have tried in order to resolve or debug the problem, etc., will be helpful. (In reply to comment #2) > In my web browser, the segment of code you've attached appears to contain a lot > of special characters. Are you using non-default character set, key mapping, > etc. that could be contributing to the problem? Interesting observation, Walter. I see question marks (?) show up in comment 0 and I assumed that was intentional (as an example of malformed code). It did not occur to me that it might be my browser choking on the output. I think you gentlemen are correct about the special characters. I copied part of the try/catch code segment from a PDF file. In that case, is there a means to display 'special characters' in the editor, or a way to force it to ignore the extra characters? Or do I have to filter out my copied text in the future, before pasting it? This will be my workaround in the future. As for the display, it shows blank lines on the screen in the affected areas, except when running the cursor up and down, then there is a line of data displayed directly under the cursor. Thanks. Sorry, but there's not enough information here to reproduce a bug. Please reopen with more detailed steps if you can reproduce the problem using 3.7 M1 ( http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.7M1-201008051700/index.php). Please also see http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-text/development/bug-incomplete.htm. Probably a dup of bug 298698. Please reopen if you think it's not. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 298698 *** Here is another sample of code taken from a powerpoint Java slide (Cay Horstman, Big Java). It looks ugly on my screen, and not so good here either.:
public class InsufficientFundsException extends RuntimeException { public InsufficientFundsException() {} public InsufficientFundsException(String message) { super(message); } }
Here's a hexdump of the string:

Note: the 0x0b is control-K the vertical tab function --- that explains a lot. Now how do I turn this off, or filter it out?
Really looks like a dup of bug 298698. >Now how do I turn this off, or filter it out?

The editor behaves erratically when I am trying to edit try/catch/finally blocks. Sections of code don't show up as I scroll up and down through this short code block. Yes, the syntax is garbled on my part, but I still expect to be able to see the text and I can't edit what doesn't show up on the screen. Everything below the 'try' keyword is malformed as I scroll the cursor up and down, and things like auto-indent don't help.
