However, now the text area does not follow the cursor when it is out of range. i.e. Suppose the screen wide is 80 character, and the text area still shows column 1~80 when the cursor is at column 90. Which make the editing actions invisible to user. Reassigned. --- Additional comment from pahuang on 2012-10-12 11:24:19 EST --- (In reply to comment #2) > Tested with Zanata version 1.8.0-SNAPSHOT (20121011-0029) on Firefox ESR > 10.0.6 > and Google Chrome 15.0.874.121 > > After paste the string: > 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567 > 8901234567890 > > The sympton describe in the bug description is gone. > However, now the text area does not follow the cursor when it is out of > range. > i.e. Suppose the screen wide is 80 character, and the text area still shows > column 1~80 when the cursor is at column 90.

You will have to manually use the scrollbar. Before we upgrade to codemirror 3(at the moment still in BETA version and is not backward compatible), we have to use a scrollbar when a line is not breakable by words. Please raise another bug(upgrade to codemirror version 3) for this to be properly resolved.
Test cases for this bug: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit any document in any project version. 2. Put a wider-than-cell-editor word in the cell editor, such as "123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890" 3. Move the cursor to the beginning of the string. 4. Press the right arrow key many times and continue until cursor is reach the right border. 5. Press the right arrow key. Actual: Cursor is out of the text area and cannot be seen. Expected: The viewport of text area follow the cursor such that cursor can be seen.
Note: I don't think CodeMirror 3 has been released yet.
This bug needs some housekeeping.
