Bug when overwriting text with external keyboard

Post by leadermontanus »

I have discovered a tricky bug when I use an external keyboard to edit text using the paid version of Textmaker for Android. Basically, when I select some text I want to replace, and then type, the first letter is typed in where the

Steps to reproduce:
  • Attach Bluetooth keyboard
  • Type 2-3 lines of text
  • Highlight a few words in the middle of the paragraph using the keyboard (Shift + arrow keys for instance)
  • Start typing
Expected results: Text that was highlighted is replaced with the new text

Actual result: Text that was was highlighted is replaced with the first leter that was typed only. Then the rest of the text being typed is inout after the first letter of the paragraph.

I made a video here that shows the caret (line that shows where text will be input) jumps and how text input is in wrong position: https://youtu.be/hFoJPMdFxoY
