Description xdvom03 2019-07-19 12:17:45 UTC
Description:
Footnote section moves up and down quickly and text selection only moves the cursor.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document with multiple images with wrapping turned off. Otherwise standard text with no strange characters/fonts/anything. Create many footnotes throughout the text with links. Some footnotes can take up two rows.
2. Click in one footnote
3. Press Enter to create a new line
4. Delete the new line

Actual Results:
Quick movement of footnote section up and down. Attempts to select text only move the selection character. Restart of program is sometimes necessary for symptoms to disappear.

Expected Results:
The new line should have disappeared and the program should have otherwise not done anything of significance.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Thanks for the report. Could you please add an example file as attachment. The document layout is rather specific, I guess
Comment 2 xdvom03 2019-07-19 20:31:07 UTC
I edited the document, losing the broken file. I tried to restore it, but the bug did not appear. Probably there is some minor layout change I did at some point that fixed it.

xdvom03, let's change status to NEEDINFO. If the bug occurs again, please attach the document.
