I'm currently working on the XXE port on MacOSX. I use 10.2.5, I guess. I'll upgrade to 10.2.6. It should be easy to find a workaround for this problem (because it is documented by Apple). By the way, tell me if in your environment, you can put the caret on the middle of the letter in a styled document view. And if the answer is yes, in which circumstances. And if the answer is yes, have you found any workaround for this (e.g. changing fonts using Options|Options, Style tab, special Java properties -Dxxx=yyy, etc). Thanks in advance.
