Hi,
I am editing a page now. As I added a few bold characters, the lines
started shifting down while cursor stayed where it is supposed to be.
So when I am editing a line, the cursor looks as if it on the line
above. I hope I am articulating the problem well enough.

Hi Hasan, is the first word in the line bold? Sometimes that triggers the bulleted list auto-complete, so when you get to the end of the line and hit enter it might think you want to add another list item and begin the next line with an asterisk.

Otherwise, are you able to post a screenshot, or email it in...@wikipackit.com?

Thanks,
mark

Hi Mark,
I emailed you a screenshot. Let me know if that was enough to see the
problem.
Thanks,
Hasan

Thanks for taking the time to send a screenshot Hasan. I've uploaded it here: http://cl.ly/2E3G3P111P0Y1m1A3v2f

That's a very impressive Markdown table you have there! How do you add the bold characters, by manually typing ** followed by the text, or do you type the text first and then select it and hit the Bold button/keyboard shortcut?

What happens if you reposition the cursor to where it should be using the mouse?

Have to admit, if I was working on a table like that, I'd edit it externally in TextMate or Sublime Text which both have column select modes, but I will definitely try to improve the web editor so you can use it without having issues.

Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I typed ** manually.
I agree with you, I will try another editor next time.
