Notepad3: Reduced context menu - unable to cut/copy/paste/delete text from menu

[marogo2310]

Please look at the attached picture and compare the context menu that is displayed by clicking the right mouse button in the editor
area, in the old and the latest version of Notepad3. Basic editorial operations are missing: cut, copy, paste and delete.

This is the Bookmark-Context-Menu - you right-clicked on the bookmark sidebar instead of selected text.

Margin context menu seems to be broken. Changed behavior depending on visibility of line numbering.
Not reproducible in Debug-Mode.

Nonsense, try clicking anywhere in the editor area to display this menu (Cut/Copy/Paste/Delete) in the latest version. This is impossible, because the menu for this version no longer exists.

Hello @marogo2310 ,

The bug appears when in "View" --> the "Line Numbers" is unchecked !

I confirm. However, I do not need line numbering, but "Bookmark Margin" I do, so that's a bug.

@marogo2310 : Sorry for confusing you. I tested just with Debug-Compiled version, where the context-menu works as designed.
The Release-Compiled version is broken. This gives the hint to the problem:
Removing the "whole program optimization (/GL)" compiler switch for the Scintilla static library, the problem vanishes.
The Release version should work after this fix, but the reason why the optimization switch breaks the good behaviour is not known yet 🤔
