Text insert-overwrite switching autonomously


#1

I’ve been encountering an issue when entering text in Axure 9 whereby the editable area switches from inserting characters to overwriting them. I have to select the “Insert” key on my keyboard to reverse the switch. This is happening only in Axure.

I have:

  • enabled and disabled the Single Key Shortcuts preference setting
  • checked the Windows keyboard settings
  • reinstalled Axure

While not a major issue, it’s pretty frustrating to have to toggle the input mode every time I enter text. Any insight that addresses the issue would, consequently, be gratefully received. Axure_insert-overwrite_text_weirdness
