When users click Reply and then start to type their response in the
text box, the text gets forced to the bottom of the box.
Is there a setting I missed to permit typing to go at the top of the
box if that’s where the cursor is?
It also jumps to a wide line spacing but we can live with that.

Hi,
Is there something simple I can set that permits
Text entered in a Reply or Comment to be inserted at the top of the
text box (above any quoted text)?
RTFM articles inserted at the top of the text box, again to be
above any quoted text?
Is there a simple config option in RT I’m missing? Something I can
set in RT_SiteConfig.om?
Please help! Users don’t like the current set up where the cursor is
forced to the bottom of the text box. I went through RT_Config.pm and
didn’t see a flag for ‘insert at top’ or ‘insert at bottom’…

The way we did this in 3.6 (though, ironically, I don’t really like
top-posting…) was to create a
local/html/Elements/MessageBox
that differed from the original via the following patch. (I believe
this took care of the cursor too, if it doesn’t, let me know and I’ll
look up how we did that.)
Best,
Travis

Thanks! This works to move the signature to the top of the box, which
is good. I added an extra \n\n to the top of the signature so people
see they have space to write.
However when I hit return after typing ‘Hi,’ to start the email, the
cursor leaps to the bottom of the text box. Any idea on how to deal
with that? Happens in Safafi and Firefox.
