If I search in a large file, the vertical scroll bar refreshes correctly when the text window jumps to the first found occurrence, but then the scroll bar stops refreshing as I move through the file.
This happens intermittently, but I can consistently reproduce as follows:
$ for i in $(seq 900); do echo $i >> test.txt; done
$ scite test.txt
press <ctrl-f>
input "99" as search string
press <enter> (the scroll bar refreshes)
press <f3> (the scroll bar does NOT refresh)
press <f3> again (the scroll bar does NOT refresh)
press <pagedown>(the scroll bar does NOT refresh)
press <pagedown>(the scroll bar does NOT refresh)
...</pagedown></pagedown></f3></f3></enter></ctrl-f>
I am using SciTE v5.1.6 on GTK 3.24.31 on Arch Linux. I am using all default options, I haven't set any user preferences.
The scroll bar on GTK stops updating in various scenarios. You can restart updating again by clicking on a menu. Maybe it has something to do with focus handling.
This is a duplicate of [#2196].

Bugs:
#2196I found a work around, which is to use the pop-up Find window rather than the default Find strip by setting the following in my user properties file:
find.use.strip=0
replace.use.strip=0
Since I changed these properties I haven't seen this bug reoccur.
A potential fix has been committed as [0b5fb5].
