Handsontable: autocompletion misses last character

Tags: #<Tag:0x00007f0b024b7418>

In Firefox, Often, but not always, autocompletion used for data lookup in HandsOnTable does not use the last typed character to build the menu.
it is the same if we use backspace.
to reproduce :
open Firefox -> go to https://jsfiddle.net/api/post/library/pure/ -> type “black” in the cell and use backspace to delete the word.
Any idea to avoid this prob in firefox ?

Hi @aleksandra_budnik,

thank you for your reactivity.
my collegues reproduce this bug on their laptop.
I use a qwerty (US) layout keyboard, my collegues use qwertz (CH & PL) layout, and I tried with my old but resilient AZERTY (FR) layout keyboard.

Let us test this on some additional devices.

We’ve tested this on a couple of devices but couldn’t reproduce the issue.

Can you please share a video that tracks clicks and keys?

Hey @alexandre.quere

I’m hope that you’re well. I will keep this topic opened for some time.
Please update me as soon as possible.

Thank you @aleksandra_budnik .
Unfortunately, for multiple business and healthy reasons, I can’t put more time in this bug.
But I can assure you it is reproducable easily.

I will have this topic opened and will investigate the case once more.

Keep strong @alexandre.quere

Hello @aleksandra_budnik

Unfortunately, since version 80.0.1 of Firefox, it is impossible to reproduce the bug.
I did my best but I have to admit: the bug is fixed.

Thank you for the update Alexandre
