Code cells are not being recognized

[AD]

I am a heavy user of code cells, but something has gone strange in Spyder 4.1.x.  I have multiple script files where the editor shows the cell boundaries with lines, but no matter which cell I try to run, it always tries to run cell 0.

When I try to create a new file to demonstrate the problem, of course it works perfectly, and I can't figure out what's throwing Spyder off.  Has anything changed in the cell handling since version 4.0.1?

What is the input in the console runcell function? Can you check that the code cells names in the outline exporter pane match the runcell input?

Also if you're running 4.1.x from git you need the latest version of spyder-kernels as well

Thank you so much for replying.  I posted more details in a stack overflow question since my question was not showing up here.

The behaviour is:

• the editor shows a red line above each occurence of #%%
• press Ctrl-Enter in any cell N
• console shows runcell(0,...
• the whole file runs as if no cells were defined

Everything is installed using conda

  spyder                                       4.0.1-py37_0 --> 4.1.2-py37_0
  spyder-kernels                               1.8.1-py37_0 --> 1.9.0-py37_0

It's very puzzling on top of being annoying!

This could be a problem in the actual file line endings. Can you link to a file that has the problem? What operating system?

I observed similar behavior when I undocked the Editor window from Spyder. However, if my Editor window is not undocked, running specific cells work fine. Last, the issue doesn't happen every time - i.e., sometimes, with the Editor window undocked, it works OK. I couldn't find a pattern yet. I Will let you know if I do.
