Affected app version

1.2.0

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

A11

Affected device model

Motorola

How did you install the app?

None

Steps to reproduce the bug

• Copy the rendered bullet list example from https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_lists.asp
• Open Fossify Notes
• Create a new note
• Long press and paste
• Try to delete the bullets

Expected behavior

Any bullet/margin spans are cleared.

Actual behavior

Spans are not cleared. As a result, deleting the bullets doesn't work properly, and you are left with empty, undeletable whitespace when you delete all text.

Screenshots/Screen recordings

overlay.bug.mp4

Additional information

Reopening the note clears the spans, so the problem goes away after a restart.

Can you paste on Github sample text that's causing problems? It's hard to reproduce the issue based only on the video.

[slvlng]

https://duck.ai -> o4-mini -> 1. 2. 3. ... 10, example of notes, shorter

[Aga-C]

it seems I’ve come across another one....

Please report it in a separate bug report.

Also, I still can't reproduce your original issue. I can't generate/find any text that's causing the problem.

[slvlng]

I have no idea how to bypass GitHub’s formatting. I tried several variants, but none of them works...

once again, have you tried what I suggested? go to duck.ai, choose the o4-mini model, and simply paste this line...

"1. 2. 3. ... 10, example of notes, shorter"

@slvlng are you using an unofficial GitHub client/app?

I can reproduce this issue. Some bullet/leading-margin spans that should be stripped on paste.

are you using an unofficial GitHub client/app?

No, I'm using a browser, but I don't think that's the issue, since I used to be able to edit my messages. Besides, I don't have this problem on other GitHub branches. and now it works again...
