Description
I'm on a mac so I am using command-I to turn on italics in the post editor, visual mode, as I write.
To replicate: Write the first letter of a word. Then backspace. Then press command-I, and write the whole word, which will now be italicized. Before pressing the space bar, hit command-I again. Instead of just turning off italics for your next word, it turns the word you just wrote back into non-italicized text.
Through testing I discovered that it does not happen if you press command-I at the beginning of the word, it only happens when you back up in the middle of the word and then press command-I. And it doesn't happen when you press the "I" italics toolbar button to turn italics on and off, it only happens when using the keyboard shortcuts.
This is new behavior that started with one of the recent updates, but I don't know which one.
I know it's not a huge bug, but it's not expected behavior and it really gets in the way of my typing flow. I have to stop, go back to select the word, and make it italic again.
Hello cheekyboots, thanks for the report and sorry you never got a response.
We have recently updated TinyMCE to version 4 (#24067). I tested you steps in Chrome, Firefox and IE and couldn't reproduce it anymore.
