I have a perspective table with editable columns, where double-clicking starts the edit. I’ve found that after editing has started, doing a single-click inside of the cell to move the text cursor causes editing to cancel.

Is this a bug?

i have noticed that it only happens when “allow edition” prop is set to “double-click”, if you set it to “single-click” you can click anywhere inside the cell without any problem
