NO BUG: Text box moves down one line each time it is edited

I asked a question wrt this issue here: Basic Text element moves down the block in builder

It was suggested I raise it as a bug.

I have a Section>Container>Block with a Heading, Basic Text and a Button.

When I click into the space between the heading and the text (inadvertently), then click into the tex itself, the text box moves down as though a I had pressed Enter.

Refreshing the builder doesn’t resolve it, but the front end displays correctly.

I cannot see how to remove the spaces in the Builder. Is this a setting I have set incorrectly? I changed the tag to p and the text vanished completely in the Builder, but is visible in the element text box. I could not repeat that (nor could I recover the text box).

The spacing issue IS repeatable.

I reloaded local and the web page and the text box displayed correctly in the builder, but the spacing issue was replicable.

NB also the sidebar behavior!

Hi,

sorry for the delayed answer. I’ve tested this locally, and I was not able to reproduce it. Would it be possible to copy-paste all page elements, so I can test it with the same structure as you have?

Thank you,
Matej

Hi @Matej

I’ll be happy to do that, do I just select each element form the structure panel, copy and then paste them into a reply here?

Cheers

Hi @golfbravo ,

You can also use “copy all” at the top of the structure panel and paste it here. Please use the formatting option in the toolbar, to format the JSON code properly after pasting (2nd screenshot):

You can also try to inspect the “empty spaces” with the dev tools. Maybe you/wen can see what’s going on there :thinking:

Thanks, I wanted to be sure I did things the right way. Here is the paste from the structure panel:

Hm… I can’t see any issue with the template itself, nor can I replicate the issue (latest macOS, latest Arc):

Have you tried a different browser or incognito mode (without browser extensions)? If that doesn’t work, please disable your plugins (all of them).

Well, that was a bit of a “duhhhhh” moment.

It seems to be an ARC browser issue and they seem to be abandoning support, so time to move on perhaps.

Sorry to divert you, I thought I had checked in other browers…

I’m using Arc on macOS in the video, too. So I still assume some plugin or extension causing the issue. However, I’ll mark the report as “no bug” for now.
