    when opening x.509 certificate file in the hexedit, the tab flashes many times, it seems that the tab was redraw repleatly.
    repeat this bug:
    1. open any der encoded x.509 certificate(not base64 encoded)
    2. you can find out that the tab flashes
    3. switch to any other tab
    4. switch back to the der file tab

    it is strange this bug only occur when opening x.509  der certificate.
    not all der file
    not all bin file(don't occur even open exe file of several Ms bytes)

    looking forward for this bug to be fixed,since I work on x.509 certificate
    file often.thx a lot

      Please do also bug reports in future on the new project side.

      In your explanation I didn't see "now go to Hex Edit"... I don't know, do you realy mean a bug in HexEditor? Could you tell me what do you did exactly? Because I could not see any problem with.

      Best Regards

      Ok, this is a display bug. I know this issue and it's an unlovely behaviour. This happens to files that have a special size. Until now I don't know what this redrawing causes, but be sure, I changed a lot stuff to make it more "beautiful".

      Thanks for your report. I try to find a solution within the next versions.

      Jens
