Editor Limitations

Each column in formatted and single display only displays up to 259 characters

Each column in the formatted and single display can only display up to 259 characters. This is a a limitation imposed by the native Windows implementation of tables, which the Eclipse platform uses, and is recognised as a known issue on the Eclipse platform.

Workaround

Column header truncation after approximately 3,000 characters in column headers

When the total number of characters exceeds approximately 3,000 in total, column headers start to get truncated. This is a known limitation imposed by Eclipse's use of the Windows implementation of the table control.

Workaround

Alignment of text value and corresponding hex value display

Depending on the type of records used by the resource being edited, the alignment of the text value display and the corresponding hex value display can be not aligned. This is due to the fact that some text values occupy multiple bytes for the corresponding text in UNICODE (eg. DBCS characters, UNICODE characters).

Undo/Redo limitations

Binary data preservation limitation in CHAR mode when working with multi-bytes character set
