All of the findings above can be reproduced with TextArea qml element.
Description
Qt for Android introduced a basic cursor handles for text selection and cursor positioning. However, it doesn't work as expected when suggestion mode is active. Some of the bug symptoms:
- Cannot position cursor in a word currently being composed by clicking on the position in the word
- Cannot position cursor in a word currently being composed by dragging cursor handle; the cursor jumps back at the end of the word
- If cursorPosition is being set manually in the middle of the word behaviour similar to: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-58013 occurs when the word is being doubled from the middle.
- Once shown, the cursor handle cannot be hidden when clicked on another part of the text as expected in native android behaviour. (This symptom occurs even when suggestions are disabled; there is simply no way to hide the cursor handle after it's shown)
