Different Handling overriting links in trichview

[tomr]

Hello TRichView Support,
I have encountered an issue regarding overwriting hyperlinks, which can also be reproduced in the demo application.

When the hyperlink is the first element in a line, everything works as expected:
Enter an email address so that the hyperlink is automatically detected.

Add spaces at the end and select the entire line.

Overwrite the hyperlink while keeping the same target.

In this case, the hyperlink target remains intact.

However, if I follow the same steps but insert spaces or tabs before the hyperlink, the target is lost after overwriting.

In Microsoft Word, the hyperlink target remains unchanged in both scenarios.

Could you please confirm whether this is expected behavior or a known issue?

Kind regards,

Overwrite the hyperlink while keeping the same target.

How exactly I need to overwrite the hyperlink?
If I select the whole line (hyperlink + trailing non-hyperlink spaces), new typed characters will have style of non-hyperlink spaces.

Hi Sergey,
Sorry, my previous description may have been inaccurate.
You do not need to select the entire line—that was incorrect.

Instead, only select the spaces after the hyperlink together with the hyperlink itself.
