Description Paul Heijman 2013-04-15 09:34:03 UTC

While typing text (i.e. a book trsnslation) suddenly the new text block I made since starting up is placed somewhere many pages back. When trying to replace it, everything goes haywire: the textblock goes all over the place, is uncontrollable, so I end up erasing it completely, saving and starting anew. But in the meantime I've lost a couple of hours' work.
This is the second time it happened. I wonder if it has to do with the amount of existing text (almost 130.000 words), because I remember the first time it happened was in an earlier book translation at about the same place in the work.

Hope you can do something about it.

Best Regards,

Paul Heijman
