[Eric] [PyQt] Eric4 issue with splitted views

Tue Mar 25 17:22:20 GMT 2014

Hi Hans-Peter,

Does this only happen when you SPLIT the view or when you create a new view without a new 
split as well? If so it might be a QScintilla issue because when a new view is created both views 
are accessing the *same* document, i.e. the very same instance.

Regards,
Detlev
