Summary: Strange block selection

Initial Comment:
Have a look at the screen shot. I tried to create a rectangular block. It doesn't depend on the font size. And the editor paints these strange blue line at the left side of the text field. Is that some kind of an editor mode? It looks like it marks a range of lines.

Message:
I need your input (activity.log) when you have this problem. It is most
likely caused by one of the errors specified in the bottom right corner (in
the status bar).
The "strange blue line" to the left of the text field is the structure
highlighter, it is meant to show you the beginning and end of a block. A
block is normally text enclosed within a matching pair of
parentheses/braces. From the picture, the structure highlighter is clearly
out of sync with the text, which implies that the entire problem resulted
from some exception.

Message:
It looks very strange indeed, but I can see the "4 error(s)" message in red
at the bottom right (status bar), which means there were exceptions. Can
you attach your activity.log file (from the jedit settings directory) to
the item? It should contain the exceptions.
