As I asked in bug 535074 comment 1:
Does this bug have any relation to bug 487920 or bug 533631?

(Moving to Editor component, from General.)

Comment 2

No, in this case at least, no, because those relate to the cursor's appearance. This one is about limitations on where the cursor can go when an area is clicked (in an enlarged document).

Is this bug still present in the latest Bespin code?

I set the fontsize to 100 and increased the browsers fontsize by pressing CMD&+. The mouse selection was not correct then.

ACETRANSITION

The Skywriter project has merged with Ajax.org's Ace project (the full server part of which is their Cloud9 IDE project). Background on the change is here:

http://mozillalabs.com/skywriter/2011/01/18/mozilla-skywriter-has-been-merged-into-ace/

The bugs in the Skywriter product are not necessarily relevant for Ace and quite a bit of code has changed. For that reason, I'm closing all of these bugs. Problems that you have with Ace should be filed in the Ace issue tracker at GitHub:
