Weird glitches. Hitting backspace after working on a document for a while causes page to jump #125

Closed CloverFeywilde closed 5 years ago

CloverFeywilde commented 6 years ago

I've tested this bug on a few different computers. After a while Graphite will jump to the bottom of the page any time the backspace key is hit, or if basically any of the toolbar options are clicked. I took a look at the console to see if it was throwing any errors, and all I found was this:

I don't know if these errors are at all related to the bug, or a separate issue entirely.

polluterofminds commented 6 years ago

Those errors are unrelated to the problem you're seeing. Does the issue happen after a certain amount of text is input or does it happen always?

CloverFeywilde commented 6 years ago

I've looked into it a bit more and it appears to be after a certain amount of text. I tried deleting a paragraph and the behavior temporarily stopped. When I put the paragraph back in it started back up.

This may very well be the underlying open source editor Graphite uses and customizes. I'm looking into it further. Here's one of the issues I found from that codebase that might be causing this: https://github.com/quilljs/quill/issues/2197

I'll continue exploring ways Graphite can mitigate this.

Oh man, I just added a 50k word document to test this one and it's a nightmare. Good catch! If the underlying editor can't support that amount of text, Graphite's going to go with a different solution.

CloverFeywilde commented 6 years ago

I'm glad I could be of some help in pointing these things out. I want as much as I can to support the open internet and see to it that solid projects like this are integrated into my daily workflow.

It's a shame that Quill hasn't fixed that crippling problem with their software. It's seems like it's so well put together otherwise.

Looks like Slate.js has some optimization for large documents.

I'll be exploring that. I really appreciate you banging on Graphite so much. It's good to catch some of the more common use cases as well as the edge cases.

@bryanwillis7 the new editor is released! It should support these large documents much much better. Closing this issue now.
