Description Eyal Rozenberg 2023-10-21 09:32:46 UTC
Text entered in a textbox breaks at word boundaries. However, if the same text is a hyperlink - it breaks at the last insertable character. That's usually a poor choice. It's usually better to break at spaces, or slashes, for example.

That is for the edit mode case, though.
