Cant reproduce in Linux Mint, so it maybe a Mac OS X issue. Confirming, and it is really annoying, making LO virtually unusable. However, I will have to see whether or not his is a dup. Alex Seems like dup of 48402, a very old, and as yet unresolved bug. However, given that LO uses a deprecated API on the Mac for text rendering, and the new stuff is only partially implemented, not really surprising. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 48402 *** |
Created attachment 98462 [details] cursor is blinking in the letter instead of between letters and after erasing, the space is not erased yet the last letter of the first word = mismatch of 1 place of where the cursor is blinking Problem description: Steps to reproduce: 1. type 2 words or small phrase 2. place your cursor between two letters 3. try to erase a specific space or a character Current behavior: 1. you'll notice the cursor is blinking in the letter instead of between letters. cf. Screenshot 2014-05-05 11.18.31 2. you'll notice you'll always erase 1 or 2 letters AFTER/BEHIND where the cursor is blinking. cf Screenshot 2014-05-05 11.18.54: the cursor is blinking after the space between the 2 words. You'd expect it erasing the space, yet it erased the last letter of the first word. 3. I also notice the last letter in the phrase is not showing. Changing zoom may help. Expected behavior: you'd expect the blinking cursor between letters and erase the letter just in front Operating System: Mac OS X Version: 4.2.1.1 release
