Description
Describe the bug
When the cursor is next to the inlay hint, there is a 1 character error in the position:
In the image above, the cursor incorrectly treats the colon in the inlay hint as a character and skips the space after the inlay hint.
In addition, this is the behaviour of the vim plugin when it is disabled.
To Reproduce
- Install
rust-analyzerextension - Input code:
struct StructWithLongName {};
fn main() {
let object = StructWithLongName {};
}
Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
Environment (please complete the following information):
- Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 1.24.3
- VSCode version: 1.72.2
- OS: 5.10.154-1-MANJARO

Research direction
Reproduce the cursor-position issue with the rust-analyzer example and compare behavior with the VSCodeVim plugin disabled. Trace the extension's cursor handling around inlay hints; done means the inlay hint's colon is not counted as a document character and the cursor no longer skips the following space.
