[Bug swing/26888] New: JTextArea/PlainDocument - removing text with line-breaks makes component unusable

[thebohemian at gmx dot net]

Enter the following text into a JTextArea (without quotes):

"abc
def"

Move before the a and delete all characters by pressing the delete key. If you
press a key now nothing will happen, eg. no text is put into the textarea.
Pasting while having a text in the clipboard does not work either.

Explicitly setting a text with jTextAreaInstance.setText("foo") does not work,
too.

Getting the underlying PlainDocument and running insertString(0, "foo", null)
has no effect, too.
