How do I debug?

Please help me!

Obsidian’s editor is implemented by CodeMirror.

I’m investigating CodeMirror.

#3

I found a HackMD that seems to be using CodeMirror.
Similarly, the cursor in normal mode doesn’t work!

May be a CodeMirror’s issue.

#4

I am also using by the AppImage on Ubuntu 18.04 and I can’t reproduce this. Do you have something out of the ordinary with your keyboard? Does it happen anywhere else?

#5

I also encountered same problem with fcitx-skk.
But in my case, generic input method would works fine.

My environment:

  • ArchLinux: 5.12.4
    • i3 version 4.19.1 (2021-02-01)
  • fcitx: 4.2.9.7
  • fcitx-skk: 0.1.4

After some investigating with Keyboard Event Viewer, I found some differences on JavaScript input events.
Surprisingly it didn’t happen in the Chrome dev/beta build(91.0.4472.69 and 92.0.4503.0).
