Functionlist selected item not readable

[Loopbuilder]

After starting Notepad++ (since 8.1.2) with a C-File, the current function is highligted in the function list.
The color of the entry is shown: dark-gray/black background, black font color, so i can't read it.

I use the default stylers.xml (not the dark mode)

If i go to Settings - Style - Global Styles-Default Style and change foreground from black to (yellow for example) and change it back to black, the display-style in functionlist ist changed to gray background and black color, so i can read it from this time on.

I save the settings, but on exit and next start, it is the same problem as before: black on black.

Try with last portable https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/wiki/Testing#using-the-latest-release-portable-version-of-notepad.

Hi ArkadiuszMichalski.

The Portable version is working fine (see picture).

But if i copy the portable-exe to the location of the installed version of notepad++ and start it, the same problem occurs (with the portable exe).
I copy stylers.xml to my local notepad-directory: same problem with black
I delete stylers.xml to my local notepad-directory: same problem with black, a new stylers.xml was generated

I checked config.xml to, same problem.
No old stylers.xml or config.xml present in the installed directory.

What is the different in the style between installed und portable? (so i can change this..)

Looking from portable:

Update first post with debug infos. You probably pasting those fresh .xml files not where they should be.

Hi.
I probably expressed myself in a misleading way. sorry.

All xml-files are on the correct location.
with "my local notepad-directory" i meen: %AppData%\Notepad++
-> that's while missed xml-files are created by notepad ;-)
No configuration-xml files in the program-path directory.

@Loopbuilder
could you provide debug info.

Have you tried different styler/theme?
Have you replaced both styler.xml and stylers.model.xml?

Hi ozone10.

If i use a different style (solarized-light style for example), function list is readable with the colors of the new style.
If i close and reopen notepad++ the new style (for function-list) is changed: black/gray-background, different from the selected and saved style.

If i change the style without reopen notepad, the function list is readable with the colors of the new style.
If i restart notepad++ with default-style (function list not readable) and change the style to the same: default-style, then function-list it is readable again.

But after every new start of notepad++ the problem is there again.

Have you replaced both styler.xml and stylers.model.xml?

I have replaced both styler.xml and stylers.model.xml. (The problem is there again)

Try without plugins (assuming that everything works in portable).

Ok. It was the HEX-Editor plugin v0.9.9 (32-Bit DLL).

Even after update to HEX-Editor plugin v0.9.10 (32-Bit DLL) the problem was present.

Thanks. I open a issue at the Hex-Editor plugin.
