As it seems to be the same problem, another way to reproduce this: Delphi 10.2.3 (German), Windows 10m, German, GE 1.3.14.80 on IDE create a new VCL project add a new method 'Test' to TForm1 place cursor on beginning of line above implementation of 'Test' add comment: '// Über' place cursor in implemntation of 'test' after Begin (see GE_bug_1) type 'ph' or 'xdoc' (one of them should be defined as macro template invoke the template only part of template shortcut is removed, beginning 'p' or 'x' is...
