[URGENT BUG - Delete key adding a space]

The delete key is adding a space instead of a backspace (delete action). Happens inside both the artistic text tool and frame text tool. I can not repeat the bug unfortunately. It just randomly occurred in my document. I was copying tables into my document. Maybe that triggered the issue.

Thanks

I have the full version (most up to date version 1.7.2) .

Ok it is now 26/08/2019 and the bug has reappeared. This bug is really difficult to work with. Almost impossible to continue using the software. Here is a video of the bug in action. Please note I have the latest version. Also I have just noticed the arrow keys (ALL of the arrow keys) similarly add a space. So you cannot use the arrow keys to navigate. I hope this helps. Lastly I have also just noticed if you save your progress, quit the file and reopen, the bug disappears. So at least there is a simple walk around so that is great news.

I am experimenting the same thing. 

I launch the app and start to work and the delete works fine. Then, all of the sudden instead of deleting it adds a space. This needs to be fixed urgently as it makes the app unusable. This started to happen after I updated to 1.7.2.

I am using an iMac 27 inches Late 2013. Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6.

[Import InDesign files]

I hope they can make it happens otherwise we may not be able to incorporate Publisher for a while as we have too many documents templates that we use.

So happy to see that Affinity Publisher is finally a reality. One question. Will it be able to open InDesign files? I don't think is does right now.
