Default The new editor is CRAP on an iPad.

While editing it jumps all over place. Meaning I can see cursor while typing. When the text is larger than the text window.

How do I get back the simple editor with image upload that works?

i really don’t get why IB keeps breaking ****.

Hello, could you please post a screenshot of what you're describing? I have tried to reproduce it on my own iPad but have not been able to.

cheers,

Try this:
Quote a large block of text. Paste in a couple images. Then, go to the top of the message edit box, and try typing/editing the message. What will happen is the focus will shift 'up' and the editing/typing is happening but you cannot see it, the box focus is lower in the message box.
I'll try to get a screen shot later.

No need for a screenshot. I've replicated it now. I'll keep this thread updated, we didn't have this issue in testing, so not sure what changed. Apologies.

I’m experiencing the same thing on my iPad (iOS 11.2.1), using Chrome browser. The reply box always jumps out of view, so typing is a guessing game. Makes me avoid contributing.
