Comment #5 on issue 9763 by [email protected]: Regression: Extending text
selections using cntrl-shift-arrow/cntrl-shift-home behaves wrong in RTL UIs
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9763
Steps to reproduce:
* Open Chrome using an RTL UI
* Type 'abc' into the find textbox in a New Tab page.
* Select the letter 'b' using the mouse.
* Press the LEFT cntrl+shift keys and left arrow key.
Expected results:
* The selection should be extended but the alignment of the text field
should NOT be changed.
Actual results:
* The selection is modified correctly but the text alignment is changed so
the textbox is left aligned.
Discussion:
This regression is the result of the fix for http://crbug.com/1845
The original fix to get cntrl-shift to change the text alignment needs to
take the case of using arrow keys/home/end
to extend the selection into account.
If the selection is extended then the alignment of the text box should not
be changed.
As mentioned in the comments for http://crbug.com/1845 , IE7 also has bugs
in this area.
In the OS X version of the code this situation doesn't come up since text
alignment is changed using a contextual
menu.
