Inline app output after exit is garbled for Input widget #6064
Description
For an inline app that I'm building I want to keep the content on screen after exiting, so I'm using inline_no_clear=True.
For the Input widget this flag garbles the terminal output.
For example, the program below:
from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
from textual.widgets import Button, Input
class ExampleApp(App):
def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
yield Input("Press ctrl+q to quit")
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = ExampleApp()
app.run(inline=True, inline_no_clear=True)produces:
after pressing ctrl+q
