Text tool cursor keeps flashing in the same place after resizing text #1134

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Choose the text tool and then click on the canvas
2. Type anything e.g. "Hello" but do not de-select
3. Use the visible resize handles to make the text bigger
4. Move and then de-select the text element

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to not see any text cursor since I am no longer editing text, but 
instead I see the cursor lingering in its original location, still flashing:

In what browser did you experience this problem? (ALL, Firefox, Opera, etc)
Chrome 29.0.1547.57, Firefox 23.0.1, and Safari 5.1.9 on OS X 10.6.8

In what version of SVG-edit does the problem occur? (Latest trunk, 2.5.1,
etc)
Latest trunk

Please provide any additional information below.
I've only been able to reproduce this error while initially creating a new text 
element. This is because if I try to edit an existing text element, I don't see 
the resize handles until I de-select the text and then the cursor properly goes 
away.

At a high level, we could either fix the lingering cursor bug with the existing 
functionality OR disable the resize handles upon creation of a new text 
element, while it's in "edit mode", just like for editing existing text 
elements.

After lots of digging through the svg-edit code, I came up with this quick fix:

Thoughts?

A simpler case is
1. Choose the text tool and then click on the canvas
2. Use the visible resize handles to make the text bigger
3. De-select the text element
