Hi there.
The Code Explorer is not correctly refreshing when a new tab / code page is selected.
Eg I'll have two php files open, and if I activate another tab to bring up the second file the Code Explorer is still displaying the info for the previous file UNTIL I hover over the Code Explorer, which is when it repaints.

I found out about this software from a site where someone also experienced the same problem. Here is the link.
I did some testing and it seems to happen with larger functions and/or longer files. I created a php file with a few small functions and they automatically refreshed. As soon as I pasted some larger ones into it, the code explorer only refreshed when I hovered over it, and going from a .txt document to .php for example would show a blank explorer panel. The only way to make it appear again was to hover over it.
It's not a big deal, the program is excellent for the money, so it's only a minor annoyance for me.

Ah, yes, it is good that you told this. Actually this was a feature. The program counts the amount of code and if there is too much, it does not launch auto-refresh, because it would delay switching between files for 0.5 sec.
At the time it was written, most computers were slower and we have improved processing speed a lot since then, so I guess, we can increase the tolerance.
I will look into this.
