Small bug: the ellipsis ("...") is displayed wrongly, about 18 pixels above its normal position (I mean the true ellipsis …) image description

How to reproduce?....this problem I mean, not babies! :D ...?

Try to display any document or web page containing the "…" character.

An example here: http://desguin.net/spip/spip.php?article31#nb7 (see just after "priceless")

I can't reproduce the problem on my Jolla. I viewed a few webpages on the very subject of 'ellipses', yet all ... display properly. The webpage I viewed particularly was this one; www.thepunctuationguide.com (which displays on Jolla very nicely I might add!).

Perhaps to amend your question with a 'how-to reproduce' and even specify a link and/or document for people to try.

I cannot find what you re talking about. I clicked your link, the entire page is in French and I cannot see "priceless..." written anywhere. I'm using the standard Sailfish Browser.

I can't reproduce the bug. The web page is displayed ok, and also I have ellipsis on a personal keyboard of mine which is shown properly.

Sorry, I must investigate more. Some web pages display the ellipsis wrongly, some correctly. Give me some time.

Okay, not a Sailfish bug: the example above is OK with Jolla browser (which I don't use normally). It's a WebPirate bug (my default browser).

My apologies for this non relevant thread.

This might depend on the used font. I have witnessed a similar behaviour with FBReader on a non-Jolla device (Meego, not SFOS). If I set the Font Family to "Akhbar MT OTS" all the ellipses rise in the text.
