I cannot tell for sure.  Our own form based editors do not display this behaviour and I've seen other PDE editors (e.g. product editor) that do.

It appears to only affect the "rich text widgets"; those that have a mix of text decorations such as colours, bold, italic and hyperlinks.

Still an issue in Mars M7.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
