Description Jiri Prox 2011-07-08 13:31:22 UTC

The Move Caret Up action (up-arrow key) is blocked on wrapped line.

Steps to reproduce:
1) put caret on long wrapped line 
2) press 'end'
-> cursor is moved to the end of the line
3) press 'up'
-> cursor is not moved
Expected: cursor is moved to previous line - just like when the line is not wrapped.

Comment 5 David Strupl 2012-11-06 15:23:40 UTC

Still a problem.

More observations: in step 2 the caret is positioned on the beginning of the next line instead on the end of the wrapped line. At this point moving up is not possible.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,

It's not such a hard bug to check.

Did *you* try reproducing it in 8.2 development builds??

Comment 12 markiewb 2016-07-10 19:20:51 UTC

Still valid in 8.2 dev
