Weird Notepad++ toolbar bug

[DARKGuy .]

Hey

I've recently installed WINE 0.9.56 through Archlinux's Pacman, and I'm
experiencing a small issue with Notepad++ that I didn't had before way back
in 9.45-49.

When you click the New toolbar button, the entire toolbar and blinking
cursor disappear, not being available again to view and use unless I press
F11 (fullscreen) twice so it "refreshes", or so I think it does.

Terminal output is the following:

[dragon@cave npp]$ wine notepad++.exe
fixme:reg:GetNativeSystemInfo (0x307780) using GetSystemInfo()
fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0x10026, 0x129f30): stub
fixme:imm:ImmGetDefaultIMEWnd (0x10070 - (nil) 0x129f30 ): semi-stub
[dragon@cave npp]$

Any help in getting around this is greatly appreciated!! I've already tried
changing the WINE version to 98, 2000 & XP, and changing the setting about
letting the WM handle the windows - both options in vain .

Hi,

This bug is not a necesary a wine bug. There was a logic coding bug with the toolbar in notepad++ and at one point could work only if was compliled with the old Visual Studio 7 (2003).

This version you allso downloaded and worked correct even in Wine.
I maintain a custom version of Notepad++ @ phpBB forums here. This is the last version that is existing for public 4.9.2 even if the phpBB ModDB versioning didn't allowed me to release it this way, and is working fine with latest version of Wine.

But, I figured that the problem comes froma security update for Visual Studio 9 (2008) wich aftect Visual Studio 8 (2005) if you have all this versions. So, next version for phpBB will be compliled with VS8, but I will make sure that the toolbar is working fine in Wine.

Plese download the version for phpBB and if still does not work for you I will post back wich version of wine I have when I restart in Ubuntu.
