### Steps to reproduce

(hyper link of screen records of the bugs)

  1. when i type Korean language and try to modify some words with backspace button in the middle, a connected letter with the letter i just delete changes its shape. and if i delete that changed letter as well, the previous letter also changes its shape. it kind of keep going on and on until i press space bar and begin to delete letter again. (then i can finally delete a single letter in a normal way) (watch file 1)

  2. ā€˜ ā€˜ ā† when i type a korean word between these apostrophes, like this ā€˜ź°€ģ“ģ•„ā€™
    watch the screen record (file2). suddenly the last word ģ•„ became ģ•„ģ•„ when i typed only one ģ•„. it seems one apostrophe(ā€˜) changes the shape to ģ•„.
    it happened occasionally. not every time. but quite often as much as i feel so much bothered

  3. this may not relate to specifically Korean language issue, but i just found out this issue as well. please watch file 3.
    when i pressed hotkey (that i assigned for) for ā€˜toggle codeā€™ for a quite long sentence, some weird phenomenon happened. itā€™s hard to put into words. youā€™ll get when you watch

i read some Korean language bugs report from forum and it seemed the issue was resolved judging by conversation of the comments section.
but the phenomenon seemed a bit different with the one iā€™m reporting
in Korean appstore, there are quite a lot of people who report this kind of similar issue for Obsidian.
they really want to keep using this brilliant app, but the issue make us think we maybe shouldnā€™t
iā€™m aware Apple note app also has an issue with Korean language when we type. idk what is going wrong with our language :joy:
i hope this kind of issue will please be resolved here Obsidian so this app can thrive in my country

Environment

  • Operating system:
  • Debug info:
    i pad os 15.7.1
    iā€™ve got 2 ipads and the issue happens for both
    i checked this happened in Obsidian app for iphone as well (ios 16.1.1)
    i havenā€™t tried Obsidian for mac yet

in the screen records, you can see i was using WASP theme, but after i read your instruction, i changed the theme to default and checked if the issue continues. and it did continued regardless of what theme i use.

aside from the issue, i strongly wish for obsidian to have ā€œunderstrikeā€ feature
i donā€™t feel itā€™s sufficient to mark information only with bold, italic, highlight
according to the structure i set up for text marking function, sometimes understrike is really needed to organise and highlight some information in a bit mild way?, so to speak
it helps me understand my text much more organised way
i want to use highlight only for really strongly important information
and iā€™d go bold and understrike for less important
and they can be used being mixed
theyā€™ve got a sort of hierarchy when it comes to importance
you know what iā€™m saying

Thank you for the report. Itā€™s generally better to post on issue per bug report.

Do these bugs happen if you use source mode?
Do these bugs happen here https://codemirror.net/try/?c=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?

got it. thank you for informing!
however, iā€™m not aware of what is the source mode
and i couldnā€™t get the picture even after i read the text in the link page
did you mean that i can try to write Korean on the link page and see if the bugs still happen in the same way it did in Obsidian app?

@dahyo has this been resolved or are there any updates? @moderators

no it hasnā€™t. i was just using the obsidian with the same bugs :slight_smile: i just want them to update me if theyā€™re working on it or will be doing

Does this happen in the desktop app? macos or windows?

Hello, Iā€™m still experiencing this issue with the latest version (1.3.7). Iā€™m using MacOS (Ventura 13.4.1) desktop app. Hope it can be fixed since this is the last thing blocking me from switching to Obsidian from Mac Notes app :smiley:

This issue seems to be still valid in Obsidian, at least when typing in Korean, and if itā€™s been resolved, could you point me to the relevant documentation?

Steps to reproduce

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y]

Iā€™m using the default theme and thereā€™s a bug where if you drag a Korean character and edit it and then press the arrow keys, the edited character will be deleted.

Expected result

I hope that the last letter will not be deleted even if I press the arrow key.

Actual result

Currently the last character is deleted.

Environment

Additional information

The video above reproduces the bug, and the letters at the end of the video are deleted when the arrow keys are pressed. The direction keys are the same no matter which direction you input: up, down, left, or right.
