Keyboard cursor dissapears after you cut the whole line (block)

[Code-Jack]

Your report is specific for the dissappearing cursor after using Ctrl + x for a whole block.

But the more general fact that the cursor is often nowhere was reported often.
I mentioned it in this Bug Report:

Editor: jump to start or end of the page, by using the arrow keys, not always work

What’s The Bug? We can jump to the end of a Page by using the key combination Ctrl + “arrow down”. Same thing with Ctrl + “arrow up” for jumping to the beginning of the Page. But there is a bug: – It works only if the cursor is placed in a textline, so that there is a blinking cursor visible. – If no block is focused, because you’ve clicked with the mouse somewhere outside of a block (but still inside of the page off course), the key combinations don’t work. How To Reproduce It Open a Page…

And more “in passing”, not in a separate bug report, it was mentioned here:

Pages never open on the cursor's last position

What’s The Bug? Half a bug, half a missing feature: At the moment I work on a very huge page (nearly as long as a book), which I need to close often for doing anything else, then reopen it. What annoys: Each time I reopen the Page, the position is somewhere in the middle for no reason. Also the cursor is nowhere placed, that’s why it isn’t possible to perform Ctrl + “arrow down key” to jump to the end position where I was last time as I closed the Page.

Missing Keyboard navigation concept - Block Edit mode, Text edit mode, Highlights

Yes, I completely agree with you. But this has nothing to do with the ESC key’s behavior. The problem we suffer is half a bug and half a missing feature: Anytype often doesn’t show the cursor at all. It’s not simply invisible, but it is nowhere at all! It also has ended the edit mode. Best example is opening the page. Or doing a search and closing the search box. The cursor is simply nowhere and typing has no effect at all. For that reason it’s not even possible to jump to the Page’s end…

Basic editor experience. Help needed!

My ninth suggestion: No longer a mouse’s action needed after creating a Page. See what happens: Goto a Collection and create a new Page. Open the Page (why does it need a mouse click?) → The cursor is now nowhere in the opened Page. You can’t directly write. It’s also impossible to insert a new (first) line by using the cursor down key. You must use the mouse before you can write! Why is it so? Perfect would it be this way: After finishing the Page’s name in the Collection’s grid by p…
