What issue do you have?
In some situations, in the Android editor, the cursor jumps to the character-before position (details below).
The bugs appeared in version 3.0.2 and was not in the previous version I was using (likely 3.0.1 as my Droid package manager is installing every new version).
This bug appears when the following conditions are all met:
- on a line starting with '-' (bullet point, check mark...) or with '#' (title) but not with '*' and not in a numbered list
- typing a new word, starting with a letter (upper or lower case does not matter) with preceding character is a space or special character (not a letter or numeral)
- the cursor position is at the end of the line. The bug will not appear if the user is typing in the middle of the line or even before a single character such as '.' or even a space
This may sound like a lot of conditions but this is the usual situation when typing a new title or a new bullet point item.
Example where '|' is the cursor position. I am showing the real line after '>' and putting a numbering before to show the sequence of typing:
-
existing text|
-
existing text |
-
existing text |a
In this example cursor jumps before character 'a' just after typing it in step 3.
