Screen recording 2
As you can see in the recording, it seems that the line is too long to be shown completely and doesn't wrap.
When the end of the selection is set at some character, let's denote it here as * the text a few characters behind are moved just to the right of the character:
abcdef*ghijklmn --> abdef*klmnopq
I can reproduce this, but I'm doubtful this is really a bug: if you try to render non-character data as characters on a terminal screen then you get what you get. Changing the status accordingly. If you disagree, please say why and change back to REPORTED. |
