The following code creates 2 TextAreas pre-populated with 20 Tab characters.
from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
from textual.widgets import TextArea
class MyApp(App):
def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
yield TextArea(
id='textarea1',
soft_wrap=False,
text="\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t"
)
yield TextArea(
id='textarea2',
soft_wrap=True,
text="\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t"
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
MyApp().run()The first TextArea has soft_wrap disabled, while the second one does not.
By using a mouse to select the Tab characters, the selection in the first TextArea incorrectly jumps forward 1 tab character per space. The selection in the second TextArea follows the expected behavior.
