Affinity Publisher - backspace not working


Recommended Posts

What's happening here please? With reference to the video I accidentally pressed enter in the middle of the word 'Handel' and immediately pressed backspace to correct it, but as the video shows I can't go back. Every time I click backspace the format changes and the cursor is stuck at the beginning of the new line. Weird - or is it me?

Are you able to reproduce this or was it a one off? If it's reproducible it would be useful to see the document

Are you able to show the history tab and see what command is being added to it when you press backspace?

Thanks

Any naws about solution? For me problem appearing when i copy text from another document. When I paste text to new text frame backspace starting to entering a square with "X" symbol instead of removing characters. Same thing with navigation arrows: pressing direcion arrow entering a square with "X" inside symbol.

Possible workaround - Instead of using Backspace key, move cursor to the other end of the word and press Delete key.

The issue "Keyboard input broken after altering table settings" (REF: AFB-7583) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.1.0.1742".
This fix should soon be available as a customer beta and is planned for inclusion in the next customer release.
Customer beta builds are announced here and you can participate by following these instructions.
If you still experience this problem once you are using that build version (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.
