Mailspring: Error: Failed to execute 'setStart' on 'Range': The offset 4294967295 is larger than the node's length (1).

[Lyptik]

Hello team !

spec : win10
mailspring : 1.5.1-da141eaf with dark theme

I always had this behavior from Mailspring :

• write a mail (by answering on the quic reply form)
• just write and go in the mail, and then sometimes randomly I have this (screenshot attached)
• impossible to recover, so I have to restard mailspring (I don't loose what I wrote though)

It happens now more than before, but also the error message change :
Error: Failed to execute 'setStart' on 'Range': The offset 4294967295 is larger than the node's length (1).

Please fix this, it's incredibly annoying :)

All the best,

[KristerV]

ugh.. this just hit me too..

Arch Linux
MailSpring 1.5.2-31660462 (would be helpful if i could copy-paste the version instead of typing it :D )

I took the log out of the console also: https://pastebin.com/tEqZw8fW

[Lyptik]

happens in average once every one or two days for me (yes I write a lots of mails !)

Lose steps to repeat:
1) Begin editing the email inline (not as a pop-out).
2) Navigate using the keyboard arrow-keys (often the up key causes this for me).

I'm using a custom theme, so I'm not sure it has anything to do with the dark-theme.

Most similar to https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring/issues/1080

Also using Manjaro Gnome. Mailspring version 1.5.3-420ce003

[Lyptik]

+1, same steps and dark theme as well

Happens to me as well, but not in the dark theme. Both on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS) and Windows (10, don't remember the build right now). All my systems seem to be affected by this issue.

Mailspring Version: 1.5.3-420ce003

This error has haunted me for a little while now.

This occurred while navigating around using the keyboard while finishing writing a reply which has been a draft for a few days.

[tonypartridge]

Same here on Ubuntu 18.04

[bennlich]

I just got this error on Debian. Mailspring v1.5.3.

[jacobbarrow]

Also happening on Ubuntu Budgie 18.04, don't think it's OS dependent

[bennlich]

This seems to be a bug in slate. May be https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate/issues/1874 or https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate/issues/1696.

[Dudo1985]

This happened ob both linux and windows to me

[tonypartridge]

same...

Just happened to me on linux :(

[chris-ayala]

Same here. Another way to reproduce this problem is in: https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring/issues/727#issuecomment-462114521

[jcrawford888]

As a work around I discovered if you toggle the reading pane off then on again the error will be cleared.

1. View -> Reading Pane Off
2. View -> Reading Pane On

Hopefully that helps until the bug can be fixed.

Mail Spring version: 1.5.6-4cb1851b

[tincho]

Hi there.
This just happened to me.
I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and yesterday I updated to 1.5.7 via .deb
While writing a reply, I hit the up arrow key and the view/reply panel now shows nothing but this message (until I restart Mailspring), any mail I choose, the view panel shows that message.

[chris-ayala]

1. View -> Reading Pane Off
2. View -> Reading Pane On

@jcrawford888 Unfortunately, the above didn't work for me in clearing the error in MailSpring 1.5.7-2057ca30 on Windows 10. Have to restart it.

[aapit]

Unfortunately, this happens to me with a specific email containing some _nested quotes_ (from a previous mail in the thread). Toggling the reading pane does clear the error when I'm focused on other mails, but even after a restart, this particular email keeps triggering the error.
It doesn't contain any heavy images or whatever, it's just a text conversation in html format with quotes.

I'm using the Snap version of MailSpring 1.5.7-2057ca30
on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
running Gnome 3.28.2

[ASeatonSpatial]

This is happening to me as well every now and then. Haven't noticed any pattern yet, it has happened when I am drafting an email or just reading.

Toggle reading pane on off clears the error.

I am on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS and using snap version of MailSpring 1.5.7-2057ca30

[bengotow]

Hey folks I'm going to merge this in to #921. I've been tracking this for a while and I'm hoping it can be fixed soon. The slate-react project that powers the text editor has come a long way, but there were a few performance regressions that were blocking us from upgrading. Will see if they've been resolved!

[evaristorivi]

Me too!

I am facing the same issue, where our editors are getting this issue randomly. That is quite hard to debug or track.

Is this issue solved?
