Description
Hi!
I'm using Linux Mint 20.3 on one computer and Linux Mint 21 on another. In both there is an error that I would like to report. When a non-ANSI character (ñ, ç, ¿, á, é, í, ó, ú, à, è, ì, ò, ù, Â, Ê, etc.) is added at the end of the line that contains a format mark, it loses its format or does not keep the previous format.
The only solution is select all text and set the format again.
How to reproduce:
- Set a non-default format, as "Header" or "Larger Text".
- Start writing.
- Insert a Non-ANSI character when it's required in a non-English language.
Result: That character and all following have lost the format.
Regards.

Research direction
No source file or test is named in the report. First reproduce the formatting loss using the listed steps and non-ANSI characters, then trace the desktop editor's text-formatting path. Done means characters inserted at the end of a formatted line retain the selected format, with a regression test if the project has coverage for this behavior.
