Switch to a different app (Zotero, in my case) and select text with your finger.
Switch back to Obsidian.
Expected result
The cursor to be where I left it.
Actual result
Since updating to Obsidian 1.0, depending on where I selected text in the other app, the blinking cursor indicator is either several lines below where I left it with an invisible cursor a word ahead of where I left it OR the cursor indicator is where I expect, but the actual editing is happening several lines up.

Additional information
Please help. I use Obsidian for everything. (And thank you for making it!)
I’m hitting the same thing - my pattern of usage is “cmd-tab” to see another window, then “cmnd-tab” back to Obsidian. The visual cursor appears to shift on re-appearance of Obsidian, but if you type - it goes to the place where you originally left the cursor, but with the blinking cursor offset in some odd direction (usually, but not always, lower in the screen).
I’ve found that quickly scrolling up or down and tapping elsewhere, then scrolling back and tapping will reset the cursor, but it’s kind of an annoying workaround.
I’m not seeing weird behavior anymore (same versions as you). My “other” apps this time were Books and Safari (I don’t recall what I used last time). I dug out my keyboard in case that mattered and tried with Cmd-Tab, and still no weirdness.
Absolutely - I’ll report back after I’ve done that. And it was jumping into reading a PDF in Books and back that was the second app in my case as well.
Yep, definitely still happening. iPadOS, Landscape mode with keyboard. Larger document page that I’m scrolled down into, adding into bulleted lists, if that makes a difference.
type something in the list
manually tap the cursor down a couple spots to where I want to add next
cmnd-tab to Books, read PDF a sec, cmnd-tab back
start typing
Cursor is offset significantly below where values are going in. It doesn’t happen every time, but I’m able to reproduce it pretty quickly.
