First off let me say Heroku is awesome. Fiddling with rails without having to install all the software is just too convenient.
On to my issue. The cursor placement in the editor gets progressively worse the farther right I go in the line I'm working on. At first I just assumed this was a problem with FF3 since it was the same when FF3 was beta and not supported in Heroku. However the other day I just happened to pull up Heroku on my mac and noticed that the cursor displayed properly. Great, they fixed it. Or so I thought. Yesterday I pull up Heroku on my windows box at work. Cursor wonky again. So I started digging. After finding how cursor position is determined by the code, I checked the editor canvas. The default monospace font in FF3 is not divisible into an even number of pixels per character. I changed the stylesheet so the editor showed up in courier and it is evenly divisible, however even setting courier as the default monospaced font in FF didn't fix it in Heroku. Inserting courier as the next font in the sytlesheet past monaco would fix the cursor for windows users. It's not pretty by any means but it would be consistent. One of the other monospaced fonts on windows might be better looking and evenly divisible as well, I didn't check. Or perhaps there could be a check in the code that sets up the character widths to make sure the font is evenly divisible into pixels. If it isn't perhaps provide a link to download monaco for windows, or at least inform the user that the cursor is going to be off and maybe they should go find monaco and install it. Thanks for the awesome product! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
