ENTER Key not working - Linux Mint 19.

See original GitHub issue

Hi there. I have the latest (as of today January 31, 2019) version of AsciidocFX installed on Windows 7 and Linux Mint 19, both are 64 bit and both use the included JRE as opposed to a JRE elsewhere on the desktop.

On the Mint version, pressing the ENTER key within the editing area has no effect and I cannot insert new lines anywhere in my documents. This works fine on the Windows 7 version. The problem exists when I create a new book, edit an existing one of my own, or, edit the sample book supplied with the application.

I’m able to use CTRL-M to insert new lines, but it’s a bit of a faff as you can imagine as it minimises and maximises the editing area each time.

I think it could be related to http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2018-April/021729.html perhaps? I’m not a Java developer, so I’m not able to help much here I’m afraid, other than by testing.

Oh, yes, I have installed the Microsoft Fonts too, on Linux.

Cheers, Norm.

UPDATE: I received an email from “life888888” with the following content:

_This is a JavaFX bug, I report the bug at 2022/05 to Java Bug Database.

https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8286831

https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8286852

May be only use chinese input method user will have the problem.

I knew it’s not AsciidocFX bug , it is a JavaFX bug , so I test and report it to Java Bug Database._

So, it appears to be a problem outwith JavaFX. 😄

Cheers, Norm.

No problem @rahmanusta I know what it’s like. I’ll keep an eye out for the new version and I’ll give it a try.

Cheers, Norm.
