Details

Steps to reproduce:
1) Type a word (Roman, CJK or of any script) in Editor.
2) Highlight it and click on Format menu.

==> Clicking Format clears the selection (highlight), making it impossible to
    edit the text input.   bld: 1999-08-20-16-M9

Summary: Clicking on Format removes text highlight in Editor → [PP] Clicking on Format removes text highlight in Editor
Bom-Shik--I can't reproduce this bug on Mac; the format menu works fine.  Can you
clarify: is there a particular menu item that doesn't work in the Format menu or
is it that you can't even see the items in the format menu?

Set to [PP] since it sounds like it's Windows (or Linux?) only.

checked thia on linux using the 19991112 build and it works fine, using build
19991111 on win95 it works fine, using 19991111 on Mac it also works fine. The
format is not removed. Marking fixed.

This bug is not about format being removed. It's about "highlight" being cleared
when Format menu is selected - Please read Summary and description carefully.

Reopening as it happens again (regressed) in these blds:
Win 12-08-16-M12, Mac 12-09-10-M12, Linux 12-08-89-M12.
Try to reproduce the error with the self-install executable (downloaded and
installed 12-12-99).  Clicking Format and applying a different color worked
fine.  I used this as test: This is some <font color="blue">text that i
am</font> going to edit.  Just a FYI.
Sorry folks, only tested this for Win32.
asked Sujay to check on Mac & Linux, he will update the bug
I cannot reproduce this on Win, Linux or Mac using 12/13 builds.

Win32 12-13-09-M12, Linux 12-13-08-M12, Mac 12-13-08-M12.
Resolving as fixed for now.
