Hello,
i've found strange behavior with russian letters in editor - real cursor position and displayed cursor position are different. Longer the string - bigger the differ

in attached gif i've writed some letters, then put cursor in the middle of the string and pressed backspace.

Thanks!

Does it do this in this demo too? https://ace.c9.io/build/kitchen-sink.html

yes

I have filed a report on the text editor component and will see if they have any solution to propose. Otherwise, I will see if it works with a different font.

Thanks!
i've tested it on three different computers (win10, win8), but problem occurred only at one of them

i've found some issues with ace and other apps using ace: seems to be it should use only monospace font

Ok that should be fixed in the release after the next one (so after 0.10.47). It was due to the editor not using monospace font.
