Tagging keyword matches in the editor

Post by Jacobus »

Hello everyone,
Previously, when I clicked on a keyword like If or Select, the corresponding keyword (EndIf or EndSelect) was underlined, allowing me to easily locate where they were. They were underlined in red if one was missing. However, this marking has now disappeared, and I miss it, especially in long codes.
I think I found the corresponding line in the preferences file: "EnableKeywordMatch = 1," and even though the box is checked, it has no effect in the editor.
Do you have any suggestions for solving this problem?
(I was a bit late reporting this bug, which appeared with version 6 of PB, 32 or 64 bit on Windows 10, always hoping that each installation of a new version would fix it, but that's not the case. This bug doesn't appear with Windows 11.)

Thanks, miso.
Finally, I managed to regain the lost functionality by deleting the preferences file. I had to start from scratch, but at least it works.
It's still surprising that I couldn't modify/enable my preferences at this level from the editor, but the main thing is that it works. :)
