Description Moriel Schottlender 2013-08-29 20:23:58 UTC
When adding a link from scratch (without marking an existing word first)  the cursor ends up being at the beginning of the new link rather than at its end -- which stops fluent typing.

Reproduce:
1. Go to an RTL wiki.
2. Go to a new sentence or new paragraph (cursor should be in an empty space)
3. Create link, followed by enter/enter to close the inspector
4. The cursor appears at the left of the word (which is the beginning in RTL) rather than the right of the word.
Comment 1 Moriel Schottlender 2013-08-29 21:45:36 UTC
This was actually not just for RTL wikis, and the submitted patch fixes the problem for both directions in Annotation Inspector (for both links and languages)
