[web] Multi line text cursor only move to start of the text #60397
Description
In Flutter for Web, for MacOS Desktop browsers, for Multiline TextFormField, the cursor can only move to the start of the text with mouse. Cursor location cannot be set between words.
On the other hand for single line text, the cursor can move between words.
Also tested on a native IOS flutter application, again the cursor can move between the words.
flutter doctor -v

Difference is reproducible with one multiline one single line text field.
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
bool isSameAddress = true;
final TextEditingController shippingAddress1 = TextEditingController();
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return ListView(
children: <Widget>[
const Text('Multiline text'),
TextFormField(
maxLines: 5,
),
const Text('Single line texts'),
TextField(
controller: shippingAddress1,
),
],
);
}
}
