Summary: Unable to move cursor with keyboard when word wrap activated
Product: editor Reporter: maxevron
Component: -- Other --Assignee: Milutin Kristofic <mkristofic>

Description maxevron 2013-03-28 10:16:56 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 (Build 201302132200)
Operating System = Linux version 3.2.0-39-generic running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_15
Runtime = OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 23.7-b01

When word wrap is activated, typing on the "end" key places the cursor to the very begining of the next displayed line, just after the line break, where the line is wrapped. From that time, the "up arrow" key does not work anymore and the cursor seems to be locked in place. If you type on the "down arrow" key, the cursor is moved one line down but the "up arrow" key still remains inactive. To unlock the cursor and make the "up arrow" key active, you have to press either the "right arrow" or the "left arrow" key.
