Yes

Describe the issue you encountered:

When typing in a URL, Brave will predict a location on the specified site. For example, if I start typing github.com, the prediction will become one from my bookmarks, https://github.com/dbr/tvnamer. But I don't want to actually go there. At this point, to the right of my cursor is highlighted.

If I hit the DEL key on my keyboard, nothing happens on first hit. Second hit, the selection switches off and places my cursor at the end of the URL.

Even if I click right to go to the end of the URL and effectively accept their suggestion, then manually highlight some text, and hit DEL, still, nothing happens.

(note: backspace works fine)

If I click out of the address bar and back in, the whole URL is highlighted. DEL works here.

Side thought: I notice there's a config for location bar settings. Might be good to prioritise history over bookmarks somehow - I'd probbaly more frequently want predictions on history then bookmarks.

  • Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?): Linux, Ubuntu 16.04 x64
  • Brave Version: 0.11.1

Did you try the new version 0.11.2 where this is marked as fixed?

Fixed delete button handling in URL bar. (#2647)

Oh no. My apologies, I thought I was on the latest as when I did Help.. Check for updates, it reported I'm on the latest version.
