Text editor problem

Started by JohnWW ·

#1

A few of us are using Sideband for Android version 2.2.0 on a small private network and we've all come across the same problem.

 

Unless you can enter the whole message on one go without editing it usually gets a bit scrambled and the more you try to fix it the worse it gets until the only way forward is to delete and start again.

 

I have searched for this and not seen anything similar. Apologies if this is a known subject.

Does nobody see this problem? Every Android phone we've tried Sideband on does it.

 

You may not know the answer but could you comment if you've ever seen any text corruption when typing messages?

 

Thanks
John.

(I'm not using Sideband at the moment) What does "text corruption" and "scrambled" mean exactly? Only line breaks, or something worse?

Yeah, also had some problems with the messaging text field. But I haven't used Sideband for quite some time so I can't say if those were related.

The problem is not with Sideband, but with Kivy: https://github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/9167

 

If you go into Preferences, at the very bottom there is a setting "Block Predictive Text", if you turn that on you are all good.
