When I edit text it affects areas I haven't selected

Question

Wondering if this is just affecting me or I am not doing it properly or have others experienced the same issue.

For eg, If I want to make a line a heading I would typically highlight that line and in the text drop down select heading.

Issue is the next 3 lines of text receive that change as well.

Not a big deal right, create some line breaks, try again hopefully it won't be affected. This did yield a result but then when I deleted the line breaks it started affected the text again.

Now I am stuck between having a heading with 5 lines of white space or having a heading and the first 2 lines in heading shape too.

Found also trying to apply bullet points, it never starts the bullet points where the text is selected, its just never intuitively starting where I am trying to put the bullet point.

I am sure this is just a me issue, can someone give any examples of where I am being dumb here and help me not be dumb?

@Peter Nimmo have you contacted the Atlassian Support on this? We don't have any issues at the moment

I don't know if the OP is still encountering these problems, but I definitely am.  I try to make a heading, and not only does the line on which the cursor is flashing become the heading I selected, but also the previous 3 lines, and they are meant to be text under the previous heading!

Hi @rpymont

Are you still experiencing those issues?

We had some funny behaviour in the Edit mode around the same time, but these bugs were resolved on Atlassian's side.
