    I debugged cachedTextGenerator in Menu 3D demo for understanding how UICharsInfo.cursorPos work and, in the meantime, i found that charactersCount is always number of chars in text field+1. This is expected?

    We append a new line on the end internally, this is why the size is +1. It might not be correct but it's the way it is at the moment.
