I have noticed the search function does not work, and CTRL+Z, CTRL+Y des not work as it should.
Besides of it, there are other new rare behaviours with the IDE in these latests betas.

Re: [PB6.03B8] CTRL+F and other issues
Here it is with x64 version in windows 8.1
Important to say that when i uninstall previous PB version, i delete 'PureBasic.prefs' and all other stuff. And i put an old 'PureBasic.prefs' i have stored for myself. I don't know if prefs can have something to say in these issues.

I had already reported having encountered the Ctrl+Z/Ctrl+Y issue under PB 6.03b6 and I confirm it again under beta 8.
If my English syntax and lexicon are incorrect, please bear with Google translate and DeepL. They rarely agree with each other!

I've got no problem with Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y with Beta 8 and the custom IDE that Fred built. Works here.
How about some specific steps that we can follow to test, Psychophanta?

Re: [PB6.03B8] CTRL+F and other issues
Well, I have finally found the issue.
It is in the [FindWindow] section at the 'PureBasic.prefs' file.
I recently used a 8k monitor to program some 3D. Days after it, i returned to my 1920x1200 usual monitor.
Then , what has happened is the X position of the find window form was big (even not out of the boundaries of 1920x1200
).
The case is the find form in the editor was not visible at all.
This is how i had it:
Now, after replace "X = 1557" by "X = 150", the find functionallity in the editor returned to normal.
in conclusion:
1) I dont know why the editor does not display the find window when X = 1557 when using a 1920x1200, because 1557<1920
2) Please ensure that all windows (forms) which pop onto the editor are visible and inside desktop display resolution boundaries.
