Unity Assembly adding spaces between typed letters !

Hello, since I started using the alt+mouse selection feature (to select rectangular zones of text) I get this ... feature? ...

When i start typing something at the end of a line, it add spaces between each character. For instance if I type "= whatever" i get "= w h a t e v e r " ...

I have to backspace the last character of the line i want to edit to make this stop - for each line I want to edit !

This feels too weird to be a bug, so i guess its something supposed to be usefull in some context.

Please someone tell me how to stop this. Its getting on my nerves :/

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

  • Create a script (any type will do)
  • type in anything
  • holding ALT, select (highlight) anything - even just a single character
  • you dont actually need to copy/paste or anything
  • now when you use "END" or click at the end of any line of the script, your text cursor will be slightly further the end of the line - like if there was half an invisible character there. If you type anything, spaces will then be added between all characters : " a d q e x a d q z" ...

Deleting the "half-character" or copy/pasting text back & forth in another text editor doesnt get rid of that . Annoying as f*.

Im still unsure wether its a feature or bug, but as a feature I really dont see what purpose it could serve.
