Description Lucian Vanta 2007-04-10 14:49:21 UTC
Please describe the problem:
2115: if(!ProcessTrack(WFormIn,WForm,WFormS,WFormSize,Track))
If the line above is displayed in a window with width about 60 chars, 
it will show 2 lines as below; <end> key in first line positions the cursor before  k.
2115: if(!ProcessTrack
(WFormIn,WForm,WFormS,WFormSize,Track))

Steps to reproduce:
1. insert "2115: if(!ProcessTrack(WFormIn,WForm,WFormS,WFormSize,Track)"
2. Make window width about 60 chars, so the line wraps on two lines
3. Position cursor at end of first line and move it with keys left, right, end


Actual results:
Can't position cursor past k

Expected results:
move cursor till the end of the line.

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
The bug is minor, but might have unseen implications.
If you consider adding macro recorder to the application, the behavior should be uniform, not like in Microsoft's stuff.

Thank You

Sorry, for the late response, I didn't notice this report.

It's a GtkTextView bug, reassigning to Gtk+
