[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Incorrect selection length calculation with cyrillic text (#2202)

[Bernhardt Mark]

When text contains cyrillic symbols and user selects some text, the selection length displayed in bottom status bar is incorrect. By fact, it is twice as much as it actually is. It looks like a size of selected string in bytes (UTF-8), but not a length. This problem is similar to #1958 . Geany version is 1.35.
