Describe the bug
With the entry widget, when you press and hold the backspace button, it will delete a character, there will be a small delay, and then it will continue to delete characters as long as you hold it down. This is the desired behavior and it usually works well.
On android, however, if you type into an entry, then click on some earlier text and make an edit, then put the cursor back at the end, you can no longer use this feature. Now, when you press and hold backspace, it only deletes one character.
How to reproduce
- Type into an entry until there's a reasonable amount of text
- Press and hold backspace from the end, the text will all delete
- Type more text, but this time click back anywhere and make and edit
- Click the cursor back to the end and try to delete
