Help! My Korean comments in Figma are playing hide and seek!

[J_Park]

Hi Figma community!

I’m experiencing some interesting (read: frustrating) issues when writing comments in Korean, and I could really use your help. Let me paint you a talk of what’s happening:

Issue #1: Text Duplication

Sometimes when I type Korean characters, they decide to clone themselves - because apparently one set of characters isn’t exciting enough! My text mysteriously duplicates itself, turning “안녕하세요” into “안녕하세요안녕하세요”. Talk about being extra!

Issue #2: Cursor Adventure

My cursor seems to have developed a mind of its own. It jumps around like it’s playing hopscotch, making it nearly impossible to edit text normally. One moment it’s where it should be, the next it’s somewhere completely different - like a teleporting ninja!

This is becoming quite a challenge as I use the comment feature frequently for collaboration. While I appreciate Figma’s creativity in making text editing more “exciting”, I’d really prefer a more predictable experience!

Has anyone else encountered similar issues with Korean text input? Any workarounds or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help! Let’s solve this mysterious case of the self-replicating Korean text!

Hi there,

Thank you for sharing the details of the behavior. This is an unexpected issue that we are aware of, as mentioned in this post:

코멘트 작성 시 오류 문제

한국에만 있는 문제인지는 모르겠는데, 댓글을 입력하고 있는 도중에 커서가 맨 앞으로 이동한다던가, 입력하고 있는 내용이 갑자기 복사 붙여넣기가 되어 2배가 된다던가 하는 문제가 언제나 발생합니다. 작성시에 무조건… 제발 이 버그좀 고쳐주세요… 1년 전에도 의견 보냈었는데 해결안되서 여기에 올려봅니다. 협업시에 가장 많이 사용하는게 코멘트 기능인데, 제발 개선부탁드립니다. 제발…

We’ve filed a bug report and are keeping our internal team updated. However, there is no ETA at the moment. I’ll merge this into the existing thread so we can continue the discussion there. We will keep you updated!

Thanks for your patience.
