You’re right @WhiteNoise, this is super minor. In review, it appears that I didn’t communicate the real problem successfully. I’d be fine deleting this and starting over. I should have framed the problem this way.
Open any text editor that you can think of using, so long as you can adjust the window size:
- Paste in a few paragraphs of text.
- Place your cursor somewhere in the text body and remember where
- Adjust any of the window borders
- With the arrow keys or by typing letters, do something from the keyboard that would move the cursor position.
Notice that you see your text entry or the position of the cursor move
- Now open at least two Edit panes in Obsidian
- Place your cursor somewhere and remember the position
- Adjust the window size between two of the open notes
- With the arrow keys or by typing letters, do something from the keyboard that would move the cursor position.
- Notice that cursor focus is gone.
No other text editor loses cursor focus like that. Seem like a bug.
It’s palatable if you’re in a small document but trying to find where you were in a 20 page document is as trivial as pressing any key in every text editor, except for Obsidian.
