Writing text with OpenBoard causes broken behaviour

Open Aquathing opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install OpenBoard and set it as your keyboard (I use the Italian QWERTY layout)

You can reproduce two different kinds of strange behaviour, the first one, messes with the text formatting and disables formatting options:

  1. Go in any chat and open the formatting menu
  2. Use any kind of formatting options
  3. Start observing how the text changes formatting on its own while the buttons remain in an active states.

The second behaviour can be observed while reporting a bug:

  1. Write a bug report, and then deletes some words
  2. Notice how the words get attached to each other while typing. This was also reproducible inside a chat before Text Formatting was introduced

Outcome

The app handles keyboard input in a strange way causing text to change while the user is typing
