debugger console not executing manually input expressions

Answered

It has become impossible to evaluate manually input expressions in the debugger console all of a sudden: hitting Enter results in line breaks all the way down (see attached an attempt to execute 1+1 hitting Enter three times).

Executing expressions from editor or manual input in the 'standard' (not debugger) console works.

EDIT: this problem only occurs when the console is in 'floating' mode, not in 'dock pinned' mode.

Would appreciate any help!

Let's try removing the .idea folder of that project (it contains project-specific settings) and then reopening the project in PyCharm. Has it helped?

‘removing the .idea folder’ doesn't work.

Does the issue reproduce in that project but with a new virtualenv?

Another twist: the console works fine in the docked pinned mode, not in the floating mode:

based on suggested above: removing .idea doesn't help; the problem persists in another virtualenv

Ahh, I see. Indeed, the issue reproduces when the window is in Float mode.
I filed a bug to our issue tracker about that https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-49590, please vote for it and feel free to comment.
