Paragraph only 65535 characters?
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
In Text Document tool, paragraph can only contain 65535 characters. I'm actually not sure if someone would need it to contain more characters or not, I just bumped into this limit while testing the snapshot and it took quite a few minutes for me to realize that there was a limit in paragraph size, first I thought that the program was so stupid that it could handle only 10 pages. So an error message if the limit is reached might be nice, or even better, no limit. I only tested this on Win2k, but I would make a guess that this affects all operating systems. Steps to repeat the problem: for( i = 0; i < 65536; i++ ) press button a from your keyboard Now, try pressing for example b and you should realize that b won't appear to your document. ps. I used copy-paste to fill the 65535 character limit.
Sorry, could someone mark this as duplicate of Issue 17171, since I don't seem to have enough privileges for that (or I don't know how). ( I really tried searching this issue, and I thought I was searching all bugs which had word paragraph in them, but I wasn't, sorry again. )
