Description of the Issue

Multi Edit resists escape after typing · Issue #14649 · notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus · GitHub
This issue has been resolved in v8.6.6, but
I would like to report that the behavior when starting column mode again after canceling column mode was different from v8.6.5 and earlier.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Press Alt+Shift+Down two or more times to place the caret in three or more rows.
2. Press Esc to exit column mode.
3. Press Alt+Shift+Up, then the caret will be placed up to the first line selected in 1.

Current Behavior

Column mode attempts to restore the last manipulated position.

Expected Behavior

Column mode must operate anew, regardless of the previously set range.
