Ignores click position

See original GitHub issue

This seems to have been introduced recently, not too sure if it was since 3.0 or later.

Basically, when I click with my mouse to put the cursor in the field, it forces me to be at the end of the decimal. Previously, I could click anywhere in the value and the cursor would stay there so I could edit a specific part of the value instead of the entire value.

For example: I have an input with a value of $100.50. If I were to click between the 00 of the 100 I could delete just a single 0 to get $10.50. Now, no matter where I click, it puts the cursor at the end of the .50 so I have to delete and then retype the entire value… This is causing problem for my program as everyone was use to being able to click where they wanted to change and make a small adjustment and now they have to delete and retype the entire value. It slows down workflow and takes people longer to fill out forms than it previously did.

Also, double-click no longer lets you select the entire field to delete but ctrl+a does still work.

This could be a bug or a feature depending on your point of view. I’d suggest the former and think that this ability should be a setting as some may like this functionality.

I think this issues can be close now. There is a setting name «bringCaretAtEndOnFocus». By default this setting is true. You just need to put it to false and it solve your problem.

There is a setting name «bringCaretAtEndOnFocus».

This needs to be documented.
