Errors with pasting into TextEdit on Web export

[troybonneau]

Tested versions

• 4.5 beta 3
• Tested & reproduced in both 4.4 stable & 4.2 stable, so unsure if this works in any web version.

System information

Godot v4.2.stable - Windows 10.0.26100 - Vulkan (Mobile) - dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 (NVIDIA; 32.0.15.7640) - 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700K (24 Threads)
OS language: US English

Browsers tested: Brave, Chrome, Edge

Brave 1.80.120 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Chromium: 138.0.7204.101

Issue description

Some glyphs are incorrectly pasted specifically on the web export. From my testing pasting the string “Test String” works fine on Windows, but produces the string â��Test Stringâ�� on the web export.

Steps to reproduce

• Create a scene with only a text edit
• Using web export, paste “Test String” into textbox to see incorrect characters

Would you also be able to test the issue on 4.4 stable so we can establish if it is a regression?

“” characters are not in ASCII, unlike ", so it's possible there are character encoding problems at play here. Can you please post the details of your browser + OS as well since this may be a factor? For the OS, please get the system info from the Godot Help menu, and for the browser please use it's help menu to get the information.

Able to replicate in the web editor on v4.4.1.stable.official [49a5bc7b6] using Firefox and Safari on macOS as well by pasting into the text editor. Also confirmed the desktop editor does not have this issue when pasting the same string.

Firefox 140.0.4 (aarch64)
