Hi everyone I just noticed something weird that our documents have probably been doing for years and just wondered if other people see the same weirdness.
If we type a space at the beginning of a paragraph, the cursor looks like it jumps to the right margin. But it only looks that way. If we type a character after the space, the cursor and the space and the character all come back to the left where they belong. If the first character is anything but an ordinary space, the cursor stays on the left. That's why I haven't noticed till now - I don't often start a paragraph by typing a space! And it gets more complicated. If I start the paragraph with white-space characters (tabs, hard spaces etc), the cursor stays on the left, but then if I type a space after the tab etc, it jumps to the right. So it seems to get confused if I put a space after white space. Ctrl-l doesn't fix it. I tried multiple paragraph styles, including one inside a table, in multiple documents from multiple templates, on two different PCs. All the paragraphs are set to left aligned. Paragraphs behave like this whether or not there's a right-aligned tab defined or not. FM 7.0p579 on Win XP. It doesn't seem to make any real difference to anything, but made me curious about what's going on. Any ideas?
