[Bug] Highlighting makes target word invisible in Google slides

Open bedge opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug Editing a goole slides shows odd text visibility behavior

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create google slides
  2. click on text to edit
  3. type "postgresql"
  4. The letters after "post" are not shown
  5. If I hit "enter" I see "poresql" rather than "postgresql"

Expected behavior No impact on the text visibility

Additional context Problem goes away when I disable this extension Note, it has to be disabled in chrome, not just turned off in the extension's own panel

I believe it may be interacting with google's autocomplete/suggestions, but it's more than that as even after hitting "enter", the last half of the word is corrupted.

Observe as you type, letters after the initial "post" are not shown, even though the cursor advances.

Ok, have re-checked this issue. Google Slides app seems to be highly engineered, it is too complicated for me to make multi-highlight compatible with it. So now multi-highlight won't work with Google Slides. Pull requests are welcome.
