Hi Daniel,
I tried to reproduce the behavior:
- place the cursor in the XQuery window
Just to be sure: You are pointing to the (as we call it) input bar, containing the dropdown menu for the input mode and the text field, right [1]?
- hit Strg-A to mark the line so I can start with a new query
And just a note: When placing the cursor in this field, previously entered should automatically be highlighted. Maybe that depends on the OS, I’m not sure.
- enter a slash to my XPath, it jumps back to a random entry in the history, and does appends my slash to that entry. This does not make sense to me at all.
That doesn’t sounds reasonable. It seems to work on my system, though, and I cannot remember something has been changed.
Does it also happen with BaseX 9.7.3 or BaseX 10.0? Which OS and Java version are you using?
Thanks in advance Christian
