Notepad++ crashes when editing *.md in realtime

See original GitHub issue

Issue description

  1. Download this
  2. Replace all the three backticked tokens with \n
  3. Click the MD icon in NPP
  4. Strech the window on the two extended monitors
    and the NPP docking to be on the left monitor and
    MD to be on the half of the right monitor surface
  5. Type something reasonably fast like 3-4 letters a second

Markdown to reproduce

I think this is pretty self explanatory

Environment

  • Notepad++ 7.5.6 x86 (From the website)
  • MarkdownViewer++ 0.8.0.19087 (PluginManager)
  • Windows 7 x64

I have to add more stuff to this file so this is kinda blocking for me, though am not a rush to fix it.

Hey @dvdvideo1234

Ok, does not crash for me. Really seems to be the load in redrawing. Thanks for the big example document, so I can check with this use-case furthermore to identify what to do.

Until then… sorry ^^’

Hi @dvdvideo1234

Have you tried updating the plugin to release 0.8.1 https://github.com/nea/MarkdownViewerPlusPlus/releases/tag/0.8.1?

What do you mean by: “Replace all the three backticked tokens with \n”

And regarding the fast typing: Yeah, I know. At the moment every change triggers a redraw. In your case a redraw of a pretty big document with large images. I am still working on adding a delay to this to counter quick typing in one of the next releases. Another thing would be to have images disabled. Never thought about that.

Thanks
