White vertical line in IDE after update

[Fibonacci]

I updated my IDE, and this thing you can see in the screenshot(s) is now there - a vertical white line I cannot remove or change its color. So I went back to earlier commit, and that fixed it, but then I noticed there was a nice new function SetCaretPosInActiveEditor - I want that! So I updated to commit 1580d1778ea96d22b0fa9982f299e74402fa850e ("IDE: Improve setting cursor position in new programs. Issue #32089, patch by n7800."), but that white line is there!

Anyone knows how to fix it? I checked everything color-related in the Options, and nothing changes this white line.

That looks like something to do with the RH gutter that the IDE usually uses to display the position of breakpoints etc. relative to the entire file...

Hard to tell, as I can't map the colors. I think I see a similar spacing, but in a gray color...

Can you try and open 
   ide\sourcesyneditor.pas

Line 2484 (at least if you update to latest main git)

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.       with TSynGutterSeparator.Create(Parts) do
2.         Name := 'SynGutterSeparatorR2';
3.  

Line 2497

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.       with TSynGutterSeparator.Create(Parts) do begin
2.         Name := 'SynGutterSeparatorR3';
3.         AutoSize := False;
4.         Width := 1;
5.         LineWidth := 0;
6.       end;
7.  

Remove those 2 blocks of code (ensure that you have the correct block by checking the NAME).

Hell Yeah! Fixed! Thank you

@Martin_fr: While we are at it, do you happen to know why, after I start the IDE, sometimes, not always, I have to reposition/resize this thing you see in the GIF, as it forgets its position/size?

[Martin_fr]

Unfortunately no.

Glad to hear! At first, after reading the message inattentively, I was afraid that my patch had broken something... ))

@Martin_fr: While we are at it, do you happen to know why, after I start the IDE, sometimes, not always, I have to reposition/resize this thing you see in the GIF, as it forgets its position/size?

Do you have the "Automatically adjust IDE main window height" option in the "Environment/Window" options section?

Although, even if not, it should still remember the size...

[Martin_fr]

Fixed the white line. Well in the main editor => the preview still has it... (todo)

[Fibonacci]

Cool, thanks @n7800 and @Martin_fr for the patches

When I set the auto-adjust option on, it "feels" like it works - I cant move or resize anything, but theres a horrible side effect...

I see, your entire IDE is painted with black background. That can much faster tire you eyes, so you must take more breaks.
