"Just start typing" is shown when deleting unfixed text by back space key

バグ報告

Thank you for developing the great app!
I enjoy using it everyday.

I am using it on Windows with Japanese input. When I type Japanese text and backspace it before fixing the convert (Kanji, Katakana etc), the “Just start typing” message is shown together with other text I typed.

  • Type several line.
  • In a new line type Japanese with IME input.
  • Before fixing the character, delete the text.

Hi Akira-san,

Thank you for reporting it.
But I couldn’t reproduce it on my Windows 10 environment.
I use the default Japanese IME.
When I type several Japanese characters and hit the spacebar, the composition starts, then hit the backspace key, but the placeholder is still hidden as expected.
I guess you are using a third-party IME or something?

Hi Takuya-san,

Thank you for your quick response!

I also use default Japanese IME.
I attach some screenshots for your reference.

Hope we can fix it.

Got it to reproduce!
I found that it is a CodeMirror’s bug.
Luckily, it seems that the issue has been just solved 13 days ago:

I confirmed that updating CodeMirror to the latest version solved it.
It will be landed in the next release.
Thanks again for the detailed report!
