Reproducible Demo

Orgiinal code

public class Bug extends Application {

 public void start(Stage primaryStage) {

	StackPane root = new StackPane();
       Scene scene = new Scene(root,400,400);

        CodeArea codeArea = new CodeArea();
        codeArea.setWrapText(true);
        codeArea.setInputMethodRequests(new InputMethodRequestsObject());
        codeArea.setOnInputMethodTextChanged(event -> {
            String committed = event.getCommitted();
            if (!committed.isEmpty()) {
                codeArea.insertText(codeArea.getCaretPosition(), committed);
            }
        });


        codeArea.setId("bibtexSourceCodeArea");
         root.getChildren().add(codeArea);
 primaryStage.setScene(scene);

  primaryStage.show();



 }
 /* Work around for different input methods.
     * https://github.com/FXMisc/RichTextFX/issues/146
     */
    private static class InputMethodRequestsObject implements InputMethodRequests {

        @Override
        public String getSelectedText() {
            return "";
        }

        @Override

            return 0;
        }

            return;
        }

        @Override

Current Workarounds

Downgrade to 0.10.4

I think this is related to PR #922 ?  I think the offending code may be !e.isAltDown() here which, if I'm not mistaken, wasn't there before. I'll submit a new PR to address this.

[Jugen]

Can you please look at (and try) the fix in the PR and let me know if it works. Thanks.

[Siedlerchr]

Thanks for the quick fix, I will test it later today

[Siedlerchr]

@Jugen Would you provide me a build snapshot of the lib with your fix? I am having troubles building it (because I probably only have a newer version of jdk installed)

[Jugen]

Sure here it is: richtextfx-0.10.6-beta.zip
(Just rename the zip to jar)

[Siedlerchr]

@Jugen Confirmed, works now again! Would be nice if you could release a new version with that fix.

[Jugen]

Great, will release new version probably later this week or the next.
