Steps to Reproduce:
Actual Results:
ండల
Expected Results:
మండల
Cannot reproduce in Firefox or Chrome on Linux. I pasted the word in the first line of the editor window. Then I marked and copied the word. Then I pasted the word in the Search field in the upper right corner. See screenshot:
Please always include browser information, browser version information, operating system information when reporting issues.
Also, does the problem happen when [using safemode](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Locating_broken_scripts)?
Unfortunately closing this report as no further information has been provided.
@Arjunaraoc: After you have provided the information asked for and if this still happens, please set the status of this report back to "Open" via the Add Action... → Change Status dropdown. Thanks!
Sorry for the delay in responding.
I checked and found the issue. You will be able to see it when you select the text using keyboard, starting from the right. when the first character is shown as selected, then copy and try. Also make sure to copy some thing else before, if you have just pasted the same text, before you try selecting text with keyboard.
Ubuntu 18.04
Firefox 68.0.1. 64 bit
Chrome: Version 73.0.3683.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)
I have tried in windows 10 as well with Firefox. The behavior is same. In the typical editor like gedit on Ubuntu, selection using keyboard works fine,
I have updated the main task instructions as per this comment.
In practice, during editing, I have found that even selecting with mouse also results in the same problem.
Cannot reproduce. The screenshot first shows copying in editor (from left to right), and then the pasted word in the search field. Firefox 68 on Fedora Linux.
@Aklapper, Thanks for your update. I have requested other Telugu wikipedia editors to verify and report.
After further experimentation, I found that I am using Native keyboard support installed for English and Telugu. With this setting, I am able to use ULS in searchbox but not in the main text entry area of page. Whether I select Transliteration or Inscript and save the settings, ULS fails to work. All my text input, even after changing language (CTRL+M) continues to be in English. Even on Windows 10, I use native keyboard support for English and Telugu, so I was able to reproduce it in Windows 10 environment as well.
I also find this problem is present while editing on https://en.wikipedia.org but not on
https://www.mediawiki.org/
I cannot try to reproduce as I do not have a system running Microsoft Windows, sorry.
I found the problem in Ubuntu 18.04 with English and Telugu language support installed. You can try if possible in your linux machine.
You can try if possible in your linux machine.
I guess I'd need clearer steps which input method this refers to, plus information which keys I'd have to press on my physical keyboard to reproduce. My physical keyboard is a QWERTY keyboard with a US layout.
@Aklapper , Thanks for your update. Now that you have Telugu installed, you can simply try paste మండల and then select the word starting from rightmost. Then copy it and paste it elsewhere
As requested, I also give below the instructons for typing the word in Telugu.
Select second option for Telugu in your screenshot. This is the basic Inscript layout. Type cx[n to get మండల.
After choosing the second input method from the screenshot in T228611#5470648 (see upper right corner of screenshot below) and following your steps (paste word; copy and paste some other word into the line below; use keyboard arrows and shift to mark the entire word starting from the right), I still cannot reproduce the problem. Firefox 69 on Fedora 30.
Thanks for your update..
As given in my earlier comment(reproduced above), the problem does not exist on mediawiki.org. Please try on a language Wikipedia, preferably te.wikipedia.org or en.wikipedia.org
@Arjunaraoc: Cannot reproduce.
Has anyone else seen the same problem? If yes, on which browser and operating system?
@Aklapper , Thanks for your effort to reproduce. Most people on Telugu Wikipedia are using ULS, so they are not facing the problem. I am using Ubuntu 18.04 Budgie, with native keyboard support for Telugu and not m17n software. Now we need someone to reproduce it on Windows to proceed further,
@Arjunaraoc: Has anyone else seen and reproduced this problem? If yes, on which browser and operating system?
@Aklapper, Sorry my previous comment led to a wrong conclusion by you. I meant that as the Linux userbase is quite small, I lost the hope that it could be reproduced, I am hoping that may be some one from windows user base if they happen to use Windows Telugu keyboard may be able to reproduce the issue,
@Arjunaraoc: I asked as you wrote in T228611#5411246 that "I have tried in windows 10 as well with Firefox. The behavior is same." so it sounds like you also face that problem on Microsoft Windows, which should allow another Telugu community member to try to reproduce on Microsoft Windows.
@Arjunaraoc: Can you please clarify if you reproduced this issue in Windows 10 or not?
@Aklapper , I did reproduce it in Windows 10. But nobody from Telugu wikipedia reported any progress in reproducing it.
Unfortunately closing this Phabricator task as no further information has been provided and as nobody else can reproduce the problem. I still have no idea what's special about the conditions that only you have so far managed to reproduce. :( If there is a second person who can reproduce this problem, please set the status of this task back to "Open" via the Add Action... → Change Status dropdown. Thanks!
