Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: pd-extended Group: v0.38.4 Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Luke Iannini (lukeiannini) Assigned to: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Summary: Backwards Delete does not work in PD-Extended
Initial Comment: This is also a Pd-Extended exclusive issue: the backwards delete key produces the "missing character" rectangles, overwriting but not deleting the intended text. In the picture: cursor was placed at the "d" in "delete", and backwards-delete was pressed 3 times. Instead of "ete", we get "[][][]ete".

Ok, sorry I confused up things and I thought that was related.
I will have a look at the new bug and contribute a description as detailed as possible.
Thank you eightwave

Sistisette,
The bug in question is different from the one you describe. Unfortunately, there are not many people testing on Windows, so I hope that you will continue filing bug reports. A detailed bug report with an example patch can take care of 90% of the time needed to fix a problem.
I opened a new bug report for your bug, please add as much detail as you can.

Is anybody testing this in Windows?
I don't understand why everybody says it works properly since version 0.39.
I use 0.40-2 in Windows and the DEL key just does nothing (neither delete nor produce any mistery character).
Maybe it works in linux and mac but in windows I've never seen the DEL key do anything, in any version on any computer.

Found it. The DEL key was deleting the character properly, but then later another mystery char was being added. I told the char adding code to ignore ASCII 127 (DEL) and its fixed.

I can reproduce this in my Mac/PowerPC on Pd-0.38.4-extended and Pd-0.39.2-extended-RC1. It worked properly on Pd-0.39.2 and Pd-0.40-2. So it's an old bug. I wonder what caused it...

In WINDOWS it is not specific to pd-extended.
I use PD-Vanilla in Window platform, from 0.39 to 0.40.2 and I've NEVER seen the delete key work properly (or work at all).

This is not exclusive to the new font as hinted [1], since it also happens in the test7 build (intel mac os x), hence not only in the RC1 build.
