Content divider not refreshed

SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

I defined a SectionState which looks ahead to either the next SECTION keyword or document end to close its scope. The following LookAhead pattern allows to exclude multiple blank lines in the section:
PatternValue="\n" LookAhead="[ \t\n]*((SECTION)|(\z))"
The complete syntax definition is:

<SyntaxLanguage Key="MYTEST" LanguageDefinitionVersion="2.0" Secure="True" xmlns="http://ActiproSoftware/SyntaxEditor/2.0/LanguageDefinition">
    <Styles>
        <Style Key="SectionWordStyle" ForeColor="Blue" BackColor="Default" Bold="False" Italic="False" Underline="False" />
    </Styles>
    <States> 
        <State Key="DefaultState"> 
            <ChildStates>
                <ChildState Key="SectionState" />
            </ChildStates>
        </State>
        <State Key="SectionState" >
            <Scopes>
                <Scope>
                    <ExplicitPatternGroup Type="StartScope" Token="SectionStartToken" Style="SectionWordStyle" PatternValue="SECTION" LookAhead="{NonWordMacro}" CaseSensitivity="AutoCorrect" />
                    <RegexPatternGroup Type="EndScope" Token="SectionEndToken" Style="DefaultStyle" PatternValue="\n" LookAhead="[ \t\n]*((SECTION)|(\z))" CaseSensitivity="Insensitive" IsContentDivider="True" />
                </Scope>
            </Scopes>
        </State>
    </States>
</SyntaxLanguage>
Most of the time it works.
However, if you have following document (line numbers showed):

1 SECTION s1
2
3
4 SECTION s2
5
Position cursor at line 3, type: a=1<ENTER>
the content divider should moved to line 3, but it remains at line 1.
It can be fixed by selecting "Reparse Document".
Then, if line 3 is deleted, content divider of "SECTION s1" disappears.
Again it can be fixed by selecting "Reparse Document".

I actually noticed that when I was working on your other bug the other day and had placed it on the TODO list. Thanks for posting it though.
