28690 - with I-bar in empty Normal, choosing "Heading 3" makes I-bar jump to preceding Heading 3 instead of changing the Normal to a Heading 3

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P3)

Description

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

Using Commercial 2/21 2000022108 on WinNT 4.0 SP4.

To repro:
1) open attached test case doc in Composer
2) click in the empty Normal (right below the Heading 3) to place the insertion 
point inside it
3) from the Element Type pulldown menu in the toolbar, select Heading 3

Expected: Normal changed to Heading 3; I-bar doesn't move
Actual:   I-bar jumps to before first character of Heading 3; Normal not changed

Attaching testcase and marking dogfood as this makes it impossible to use 
Composer for daily editing. (How could I when I can't change one kind of 
component into another?)

Attachment: simplified testcase; doc with one H3 and one Normal

Interestingly, if you had text in the line below the "Heading 3" line, it works 
fine.  If the line is blank, the caret moves up.

Applying font styles will be common and this type of behavior will make the 
product look broken.

Putting on PDT+ radar for beta1. Need to get this fix in soon, or will change to 
 PDT- at end of week.
