[Bug 1366230] Re: Whitespace causes random character deletions

 

That would explain why it's gone so long unnoticed - was driving me
nutty. Can confirm that "Spell Checking" and "Word Suggestions" cause
this behavior, however I've been unable to reproduce with "Auto
correction" turned on only. Thanks for the work around!

Title:
  Whitespace causes random character deletions

Status in Ubuntu Keyboard:
  New
Status in “ubuntu-keyboard” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Frustrating bug that has been around since I started dogfooding ubuntu
  on my nexus 4 - somwhere around the 180 image mark. Am currently
  running devel-proposed 223 on mako.

  Have tested this in multiple apps, including the default Notes, Quick
  Memo, Touchwriter - all have the same issue. Typing and deletion work
  fine initally, until I create an empty line - see below for an
  example:

  ------------Example-------------------
  Here I'm typing a usual line... about to make a space

  Here I'm typing after the space, etc.
  -----------End Example--------------

  When I go back to edit the first line, as soon as I delete characters
  at the end of the line, the line below jumps up, and deletes a number
  of those characters. See below for the example:

  ------------Example-------------------
  Here I'm typing a usual line... about to make ae I'm typing after the space, etc.
  -----------End Example--------------

  This makes storing notes on the device, and any editing with the
  keyboard, extremely difficult. I notice this only seems to happen when
  there is whitespace in between lines - otherwise keyboard is fine. I'm
  filing this report as a keyboard bug, as it's the only linking thread
  I can see between these programs.
