TTMSFMXMemo strange behaviour

FMX TMS FMX UI Pack
1

I'm seeing weird behaviour -observed on two different PCs:


1. Create new FMX Windows app - Drop a TMSFMXMemo on the form.
2. Run the app - type some text - all OK.
3. Close app and set memo Font to Arial
4. Run the app and type - cursor runs way ahead of the text

Courier New, Consola and Lucida Console are the only fonts I've found so far that work correctly. All other fonts I've tried (Segoe UI, Verdana, Times New Roman, Coda) all exhibit the runaway cursor. Is this reproducible at your end?

Using v 1.5.2.7 in Seattle Upd 1 (Win7 32bit and Win 64bit)

Kind regards, Bob

The memo is designed (like most syntax highlighting code editors) to be used with fixed width fonts. Arial is not a fixed width font.

Thanks Bruno - that's something I've never considered. It would be useful to have only fixed width fonts displayed, although I realise that might be more trouble than it's worth.
