Systematically jumps to the beginning shortly after you start typing the first line #95

I have observed this both at http://mergely.com/editor and with a fresh install of Mergely downloaded from here.

  1. open the editor, e.g. http://mergely.com/editor
  2. Click in the left text area to give it focus
  3. Start typing fast

Observed: after you have typed a few characters, the cursor will jump to the beginning of the line as you keep typing. So, for example, if you type "velociraptor", you may end up with "ociraptorvel", with the cursor right before the "v". Pretty annoying.

It seems to happen only once, a fraction of a second after the very first time you start typing. After that, I haven't been able to trigger it again by deleting all the contents of the text area and starting over, or by taking the focus away from it and into it again. But it does happen systematically every time if you reload the whole editor.

y, I am aware of it, and it is annoying. Not sure what the issue is.

I also had the same problem, either on the left or on the right side.

No progress after over two years?
