That may well be the issue indeed because AFAIK metrics are computed character by character in order to correctly position the cursor. Abdel.

It is just a matter of painting character by character instead of by word. If you know a bit of C++, the code is in rowpainter.cpp. The idea would be to add a check for potential ligature before the word is painted and to stop before the painting. This would be similar to the technique used for font changes. Abdel.

How do you enable / disable ligatures onscreen? BYW, my OS is a MacOSX (Leopard).
