After typing text into the search field of Find & Replace prompt, the characters are shows as question marks instead of the types characters. Text matching functionality seems to be working, copy pasting the question marks into another editor restores
original characters.

In the screenshot below, the search field contains "test", which is matching the word in editor, however the characters are shown as question marks instead.

Thank you for the feedback.

I have some questions:

  1. What is the version of your macOS and CotEditor?
  2. Does it have some trigger (e.g. inputting some specific characters) to become so?
  3. Please describe the procedure to reproduce the issue, if any exists.
  4. Have you used the regular expression option in the session?

Hi, this happened to me again with latest version.

  • What is the version of your macOS and CotEditor?
    14.7 macos, 5.0.2 (680) coteditor

  • Does it have some trigger (e.g. inputting some specific characters) to become so?
    I'm not 100% sure what exactly happened, but I think I might have done a regex search for unicode character.

  • Please describe the procedure to reproduce the issue, if any exists.
    Maybe do a search for unicode character and then it will always show up under search. But I'm not exactly sure.

Have you used the regular expression option in the session?
Yes I had regex search enabled when searching.

I'm attaching some screenshots of my search and replace history

I’m reopening this ticket instead of #1746 for easier reference.

I still can’t reproduce this issue.
If someone finds a condition that triggers it (specific character? preferred language?), please let me know.
