double-click bug in editor
Last modified: 2006-07-06 11:16:18 UTC
If you double-click a word in the editor, and then move the mouse before letting go of the button (eg, PRESS RELEASE PRESS MOVE RELEASE), then the highlighting on the word disappears and the cursor starts blinking again, but as far as gtkhtml is concerned, the word is still actually selected. Eg, if you hit Backspace, the whole word will be deleted, not just the character before the cursor. This happens if you move the mouse even a single pixel, which is really easy to do accidentally when double-clicking
i can reproduce this running evo-2.2.2, gtkhtml2-3.6.2.0.200505010310-0.snap.ximian.10.1 on suse9.2.
