Problem with cursor navigation in Qt console with wrapped code

[klonuo]

To make it easy to explain I made a screenshot:

So my cursor is at annotated position. If I press left arrow key, cursor will be positioned at the end of for i in x: line, while I would have expected one character left.
Obviously it's some navigation issue with wrapped code in qt console.

Maybe related: #1305

I couldn't replicate that exact issue, but if the cursor is on the part of the line before it's wrapped, pressing down-arrow doesn't take you to the wrapped part (whereas, from the wrapped part, pressing up arrow does take you to the part before the wrap).

I'll check on Ubuntu later...

If I'm at wrapped line, and I press down arrow I'm not positioned at wrapped part (as you noted), but history navigation is triggered, so code block is replaced with previous/next command snippet. Logically as in above example context wrapped line is last line

Yep, that (history being triggered) is what I see too.

Thomas, I get same reported behavior on both Windows and Ubuntu with IPython 0.13

Could be that you use git version and this issue is resolved?

[takluyver]

I am using the development version, but I'm not sure if that's the difference. I see the bug with going down, but not the one with going left?

Can you offer an exact set of steps to try to replicate it (right down to what you type in)? I just tried it with a long string to get the wrapped line, whereas you've got a complex expression - maybe that makes a difference, e.g. because of highlighting.

Hi,

The qtconsole has been moved to https://github.com/jupyter/qtconsole, and this issue had no activity for quite some time. If this is still relevant I would suggest this issue to be reopen on the above cited repository.

This will allow us to keep the number of IPython issues smaller and focussed on IPython. As currently there is an extremely high number of opened issues , it make it really hard to find if a problem is actually known, or going to be worked one.

Feel free to reopen if need, for the time being I'm going to close this.

Thanks.

And sorry @klonuo I guess you will get multiple notification back to back, as a few of your issues are QtConsole related.
