This isn't a bug. MOST auto-pairing functions I've used have the behavior that it keeps track of the character it auto-inserted and if you type it in that position it assumes you were typing as if the auto-inserted one wasn't there. /s/ Adam _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
