QML frontend: cursor blinks whilst moving it with arrow keys #528

Closed pwaller closed 8 years ago

pwaller commented 9 years ago

When moving the cursor with the arrow keys, the cursor continues to blink.

This makes it quite difficult to see where you are moving the cursor to, since it may be invisible. It appears to leap further than one might expect, making it quite hard to track.

I think the bug may be excacerbated because it seems as though either the blink rate or the cursor movement rate is not constant, so it leaps by different amounts each time.

Note: the cursor seems to move about ten or twenty lines between blinking for me. In case that's different for others. So fine grained cursor positioning is quite difficult.
