Your suspicions are likely spot on. Sad as it is, I don't think this "feature" has _ever_ worked, especially if the unit test is anything to go by. Basically, if I remove a lazy contrivance from the test environment so it better reflects reality, the thing fails with exactly the behavior you describe. FWIW, I've attached an improved version that no longer suffers from this problem. > Or at least, this is what I observe on my > own Emacs setup – would be helpful if others can confirm this > behavior. > > Unfortunately, I haven't managed to find exactly where there the > 'mouse-face property is removed, which is why I've termed the attached > patch "illustrative", aka. it does not quite resolve the issue fully. > Some help here would be appreciated. Ugh, sorry to have put you through all that. I've gone ahead and attached a preliminary proposal for addressing the situation. If it seems rather roundabout, it definitely is. Basically, we can't really responsibly move `erc-controls-highlight' after `erc-button-add-buttons' in `erc-insert-modify-hook' without causing general mayhem. So, absent a smarter way to reconcile various interests (many of them legacy) contending for the same real estate (e.g., `mouse-face'), we'll likely have little choice but to settle for something in the vicinity of where I've ended up (although I'd love to be wrong about that). > > Cheers, > FM.

So, in addition to your `put-text-property' above, you'd have something like this: (erc--reserve-important-text-props from to '( mouse-face erc-spoiler-face cursor-face erc-spoiler-face)) If you want, you can add `cursor-face' as well, so people without mice can optionally use the feature: (add-text-properties from to '( mouse-face erc-spoiler-face cursor-face erc-spoiler-face))) Please take a look at and (if possible) try the changes when you have a chance. Happy to explain whatever doesn't make sense. And, obviously, if you have any improvements or a superior solution, please don't hesitate.
