Small bug in editor

Posted by Timwi on 2007-02-09 10:55

Please could someone fix the following minor/trivial bug...

If you press the up arrow key, the cursor is supposed to go up one line.

However, if you press the Tab key (thereby advancing a certain number of characters to the right), and then the up-arrow key, it moves up one line but also jumps to the left, as if you hadn't pressed tab.

Thanks,
Timwi

This is Scintilla behavior

The editor component we use in Komodo, Scintilla, does not support the type of position based behavior your are looking for, so this type of functionality would in fact be major work at this time.

Yes, that is a bug. Please log bugs in the Komodo bug tracker. Why?

  • otherwise it's likely to get forgotten
  • you can get notices about when the bug gets fixed
  • Komodo team can better prioritize what gets fixed

Thanks for your help,
Todd
