Build: N201101270200 Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385 When I click on text in the editor with the cursor, the caret jumps to the correct line, but stays in the same column it was in before I clicked. The result is that the caret and cursor are in different parts of the line, making selection with the mouse behave very strangely. I drag in one part of the screen and text is selected elsewhere on the line.
Works for me on IE9, on IE8 I can't open a file see Bug 335590 Maybe you are getting the same error, but didn't noticed and kept on going? Is that a new bug, or as it always being there for you ?
I ignored the error (Bug 335590) and the editor opened. I can't see the bug you described. Everytime I click the caret moves to the right place (column and row). I'm running all client side code from HEAD and server from N201101270200.
Works for me on my Windows Vista + IE8 Build N201101270200 Is anyone else, besides John, having this problem ?
> Is anyone else, besides John, having this problem ? IE 9.0.7390.16406 on Win7 I'm seeing this. When I click on a line, the caret does not jump to the correct column. It's offset by some random amount. After doing that, the caret & cursor are out of sync when I do a drag-to-select.

Does it happen right off the bat for you when you open the editor (any file) ? Or do you need to do something beforehand to trigger the failure ?
> Does it happen right off the bat for you when you open the editor (any file) ? > Or do you need to do something beforehand to trigger the failure ? It's something to do with the Zoom Size. At 100%, everything is fine. But IE defaults to 115% (not sure why), and that's when the cursor starts going to the wrong column.
Thank you Mark, that explains it. This is a bad bug, but not a regression (no need to fix it for M5)
Yes, my IE is zoomed to 125% as well. Maybe I zoomed in at some point in the past, but it seems to preserve this across browser sessions.
Fixed http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.orion.client.git/commit/?id=a96c5ab5a8e4eaf679a00e9b56abe9e486a7f28b The problem was in TextRange getClientRects, those TextRectangle were in physical pixel size. It should not happen on IE8 but it does: http://help.dottoro.com/ljxsdaqk.php (read the box that says: Be careful about the getClientRects method! )
