I am working on Eclipse, backspace key works all fine but suddenly it's started working like delete key (When press backspace we expect to delete backward characters but its deleting front characters).
Is their its an Eclipse functionality? or bug I am not sure. If functionality then let know how to make it correct.
It's really a weird type of issue. Not able to work smoothly.
Got solved:
Go to "Window -> Preferences". Then inside the tree navigate to "General -> Keys".
In the right side of the window, type "Delete" where it says "type filter text".
Find the COMMAND: Delete
, BINDING: Backspace
and click on UnBind Command
button at the bottom. Click Apply
, then OK
.
Its done.
Thanks to @Javich
It is indeed a Eclipse problem. It happened to me on Eclipse Luna Windows 8 (Java 8). I also ran that same Eclipse on Ubuntu and it didn't happen.
Long story short, here is a workaround:
Go to "Window -> Preferences".
Then inside the tree navigate to
"General -> Keys".
In the right side of the window, type "Delete" where it says "type filter text".
Find the "Delete Previous" binding and click on it.
Click on the " < " button in right of the "Binding" text area and select "Backspace".
Click "Apply", then "OK".
Done. You are good to go.
