Edvin Syse commented on PIVOT-774: ---------------------------------- Hm.. I took another look. This shouldn't prevent the scrollTimer from being cancelled, it should ensure it get's cancelled even when y >= visibleArea.y. Can you explain why you think this prevents the scroll timer from being cancelled? > Selection bug in TextArea > ------------------------- > > Key: PIVOT-774 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-774 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Bug > Components: wtk > Affects Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Edvin Syse > Priority: Minor > Attachments: TextAreaSelectionFix.patch > > > If you start to select text in a TextArea and while selecting, move the > cursor over the bounds of the TextArea (north of it), the selection area is > not expanded. > This bug only appears to affect TextArea when the content has been scrolled > as far down or as far up as possible. While the text is being vertically > scrolled, selection works as expected. > A video showing the problem can be seen here: > https://edvin.viewscreencasts.com/c97422da51ed4cf1845e5a7610a8716f > This bug makes it hard to select text in a TextArea, because one often moves > the cursor further north than the TextArea when selecting. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
