Text cursor is in the wrong place

Open nyxkn opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The text cursor is placed further forward in the line, and does not represent the correct character column that we're working on.

Happens on both latest release and master. This is on Archlinux.

I have the same issue on Windows 10.

I am facing the same problem, Arch Linux as well, latest release (0.15.1).

I have a feeling it might have to do with fonts: Official screenshots of the software showcase a monospace font in the editing area, but both my experience with it, and the recording above, have a non-monospace, sans-serif font. It might be failing to find a font it expects.

And if my hunch is right, that also would be the cause to this problem.

Until there is a fix, I'll workaround by using a separate program for the .ink files; Inky happens to load in any changes made to the file elsewhere. Edit story in a text editor -- preview, manage knots, etc, in Inky.
