Aqua: gravis accent misbehaves in MultiLineEdits
Last modified: 2008-09-02 14:08:55 UTC
I am using the Aqua-build on Leopard 10.54, Austrian keyboard (having deadkeys for gravis and accutus): The following behavior can be observed in either the /tools/options/user-data fields or the SQL- Editor of Base: press gravis then a -> à . Looks good. press gravis then space -> `` Thats not ok but not a big issue press gravis then space then a few letters then a 'Umlaut' vowel, e.g. ö or ä: the ö or ä will appear at the place of the initial gravis, replacing it and taking the cursor along. I bumped into this because formal SQL expects gravis as table- and field-name delimiters, and in the current state it is virtually impossible to do it as the cursor seems to be erratically magnetized by that initial gravis. I report this in gsl on recommendation of Maximilian Odendahl. I do not know the proper subcomponent nor whether this is OS-specific or not. Best Panca
confirmed. (P2 is for crashes etc.)
@pl: this seems to be a problem in the input method, not a text display problem as I suspected: entering "grave"+"space"+"a-umlaut" yields a string U+00E4 U+0060 (=="a-umlaut"+"grave)
@pl: ekato's patch from issue 93155 seems to fix this problem too... please check whether this is a coincidence or if the root cause is indeed identical
@hdu @pl: I can confirm this bug is identical with issue 93155. gravis + space should commit 'GRAVE ACCENT' (0x60), but the bug in insertText() treats this input method event as a normal ASCII key input by keyboard. IMHO, this should be fixed in time for 3.0...
I added another comment to issue 93155 (accidentally there). Might helpt to understand this a bit further... Panca
I hesitate to set this issue to DUPLICATE because that term is too ambiguous. The symptoms between this and issue 93155 are quite different but the root cause seems to be identical. On the other hand DUPLICATE is the best matching status considering the alternatives. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 93155 ***
SBA: Verified the fix for this variation in CWS dba30j, too. Closing issue as duplicate.
