Was RDP 8.5 on Windows XP and RDI 9 is running on Windows 7 ?

Remote Systems LPEX Editor for IBM i
A number of hex code characters that represent 5250 display attributes
are commonly inserted into comment lines of source members. These
characters would usually be rendered by client operating systems as a
square box or other special symbol. In Windows 7 and Windows Server
2008, the operating system no longer renders many control characters,
including the hex codes for 5250 display attributes. Instead of a
square box, a zero width character is rendered by the operating
system, which is invisible. This causes the remainder of the text on
the comment line to appear shifted over by one column to the left in Remote Systems LPEX Editor.
This does not affect compilation of the source, as the hex code
characters are still being maintained and saved. However, the source
will appear as if it is not lined up with the column rulers.
The operating system controls how characters are rendered and
displayed in all applications, including Remote Systems LPEX Editor.
As long as the underlying operating system does not support rendering
of these characters, Remote Systems LPEX Editor will not support them.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Hex attribute characters in rpgle source member
column 5 issue
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
All,
RDi 9.0.0
I have a large number of source members that have a Hex attribute character
(usually x'22' in column 5 of the source member for when SEU was the
primary source editor being used.
In RDp 8.5, this showed as a reverse image square in column 5 and the rest
of the source line being displayed properly.
In RDi 9, the source line is shifted one column to the left, and no
indication that the line has a special character in column 5.
Is this an Eclipse change or did something change in the LPEX editor?
