Summary 0002189: Redraw issues at ends of lines in text boxes
Revision 2014-09-02 11:08 by Vincent Sanders
Description When editing text in a text box on a Web form, Netsurf can fail to redraw the ends of lines correctly if the edit causes text to rewrap. The 'ghost' of the word that was previously at the start of the new line can be left visible in place of the replacement text.

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be universally applicable (I've failed to get the issue to show up on the text entry boxes on this page, for example, even after switching to a proportional font), which makes it harder to demonstrate. This redraw problem often happens to me when using the GMail web interface, for example, and when using the 'private messaging' system on Fanfiction.net.
