GT: Difficult to edit long strings

When editing in place, there is apparently no way to scroll to the right, and the "String" presentation seems to allow editing, but the accepted text does not appear to be saved.

Cheers,

I do not understand the part about scrolling. Could you be more explicit?

The string presentation does not allow for accepting at the moment. The main reason was that the current presentation is still too slow for large strings, so what you see is often a truncated version of the real string. This will change with TxText.

btw editing multiline text in single-line input doesn't seem like a very good idea regardless.
