Hi all,

I stumbled over an issue using Joplin when writing notes with markdown.  
Whenever adding a snippet in ` this kind of quotation mark, the cursor jumps up to the beginning of the first row of the note.

Here's an example:

# My note start with this header

something `very` interesting which gets highlighted.

* * *

The result then always looks like this:

ery#My note start with this header

`v`

* * *

so the first letter is still inside the quotation mark, but then the cursor jumps up to the beginning and continues writing there...

It would be great if the behaviour when adding quotation marks could be fixed / adjusted.

I'm on the latest Joplin version 2.7.13 on Windows

If any further details are needed I'm happy to help.

Best regards  
Bastian
