Bug #9643
Textboxes not working
0%
Description
OSX El Capitan
KSP 1.1.2
Entry into many test boxes exhibits strange behaviour
Backspace skips a character and deletes a character
Character insertion occurs before the insertion point, meaning all writing is done backwards, e.g. "Abc" comes out "cbA"
Backspace doesn't delete the last character, making it impossible to write what you want, even accounting for backwards writing above
Backspacing over overwriting selected text just moves the insertion point to the start of the text

It seems that you have a system configured for right-to-left languages. Perhaps this is a bug of Unity... but still need more info.

No, I do not. My system is left to right.

As far as I'm aware you are the only person to have reported this so the problem is most likely to be caused by some quirk of your machine setup.
This report still needs more info as described in the various bug posting guidelines. Log files, screenshots, accurate description (e.g. give one definite example of a text box that does this) etc.

Updated by I can confirm this issue.
Mac 10.10.5
KSP 1.1.2
Plugins installed: interstellar, remote tech
In most cases text input works fine.... but in some cases input becomes reversed and this is unrecoverable without closing KSP and re-opening. This effects naming ships as well as naming flags (I assume all text input is effected, but that's what I've seen so far).

Came across this bug twice now so found this bugtracker to report here. Seems intermittent: not present when first started and unsure what triggers it so difficult to reproduce. Restart fixes it.
Illustrated with attached gif; also put on imgur in case the attached doesn't animate: http://imgur.com/a/9FCog
EDIT: ATTACHED IMAGE APPEARS GLITCHED; IMGUR IS NOT.
Field has "test" already present.
Cursor placed at end and attempted backspacing over all text; cursor hops.
Attempt at typing "This is a test" and text comes out in reverse due to cursor hops.
OSX 10.11.16
KSP 1.3.0.1804 (en-us)
Unity Player V 5.4.0p4
Thanks.

- Version changed from 1.1.2 to 1.3.1
Still in 1.3.1. Seems to be caused when you go back and try and edit text, e.g. clicking behind the end of the text, then backspace and edit. Not always, but once it starts hapenning you need to restart in order to be able to edit text, Highly irritating. Cannot believe your QA haven't found this yet!
