Maximum amount of errors found is 500000. After that search stops and displays error message. Only listed error locations are displayed on the screen.

So executing checking again after fixing some errors may display new errors. Same point may have several coding errors.
Executing the check with the Shift-key makes previously skipped errors visible again.
Displays listed errors as different color circles above the file. Red circle are fatal geometric errors, green ones indicate low quality and blue means coding error. Active error in the list is displayed witf bigger circle.
