Buggy visual-line navigation using current codemirror-vim

[riotonthebay]

Note: This is a bug in codemirror-vim. The fix is to upgrade to codemirror-vim version 6.2.1.

Steps to reproduce

• In VIM mode, write a line of text that wraps onto 3 lines
• With your cursor on the first character of the first line, type “gj” (move down one visual line) twice. You should be at the first character of the third line.
• Type “gk”

Expected result

Cursor should move to the first character of the next line up (line 2, following the steps above).

Actual result

Cursor skips a line, moving to line 1 using the steps above.

In the codemirror-vim issue there is a link to a an already open bug report in Obsidian, is there a reason why you decided to open another thread?

Sincere apologies; I actually missed that, embarrassingly. Please feel free to lock this. Appropriate thread, for posterity: Vim `gk` at the head of line goes 2 line up
