Well - this has always been one of those things, but the behaviour you describe is (IIRC) the documented behaviour for fltk. Other toolkits have differing views on what's "right" here - as you note, some handle this differently. > I have fixed that for me with the following change in "int > Fl_Input_::position(int p, int m)" > I replaced "if (p == position_ && m == mark_) return 0;" > with "if (p == position_ && m == mark_) return 1;" I think that, rather than changing the underlying lib, I'd just make a derived widget (or set of derived widgets) that did the "right thing" here, so that nay code I generated would not depend on mods to the underlying lib. Provides a more robust and portable solution for the longer term. I doubt there's much scope for "officially" changing the fltk lib behaviour at this stage, as the existing pattern is now well established (even if not everyone likes it...!)
