Text Editing Issue



User: Guest 13 years ago
Many times, when I click into a text box and highlight multiple words, I cannot type over those words, or hit the delete key to erase the words. I am not always able to replicate this issue so it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when it happens. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Does this happen when the start of the selection is the first character?

This happened in an earlier version and I had to delete the whole text box and start again whenever it did. It was random and so I assumed it was user error!

I haven't noticed it in this latest version but then I haven't done much with text.

No. I don't know if I have even tried by selecting the first character. When it does happen, it basically does not recognize the keyboard at all. I can't use the arrow keys to move the cursor anywhere.

In my case the problem was caused by trying to use one of the text boxes that was included on the page when the template was loaded.

Ok, we need to keep an eye out for this one then. I cannot reliably reproduce it.

I just came across this one again.

I entered a couple of words into a text box and then clicked off it to do something else. When I selected the box again and tried to click and resume typing, it refused to do anything.

I had to highlight the existing text and then click at the end of it before I could enter anymore of whatever it was I was going to write.

I had the same trouble while trying to update text on one of template pages. Had to right click and "cut" the text. Then I could type in the new text.

We are still trying to reproduce this issue.

If you are able to find reproducible steps, please let us know.

It could have something to do with using the undo/redo system. If that sounds like it happened after doing that, let us know.
