The pm-pagecount listener sat on the hosts[0] element, which Svelte replaces when the pane layout changes (multi-page grid, split view). The editor view moves to the new host, the listener died with the old one — numPages froze, so no new page ever appeared in the grid. Listen on the view's own DOM instead, which is only ever re-parented.
Powerful word processor — just one URL away.

EdenText is young, in beta and actively developed — more features are on the way. It is tested — the full suite plus LibreOffice round-trip checks run on every commit — but expect occasional bugs, and keep backups of documents you care about.
