Definitely. This is what Open Office does. If you are inside a word it
bolds that word, otherwise you start typing bold.
Hi devs,
Let's consider the following scenario:
* Edit a new page with the new WYSIWYG editor.
* Type a word like "ubuntu".
* Move the caret inside the word like "ubu|ntu".
* Press the Bold button or type CTRL+B.
Question: What is the expected behavior?
a) Apply the inline style (bold) only to the insertion point. The next
letters typed will have this style applied.
b) Apply the inline style (bold) to the word that contains the
insertion
point ("ubuntu").
Note: b) is the current behavior in Open Office and IE. FF behaves
as in
a). The behavior currently implemented in the new WYSIWYG editor is
a).
Also, by choosing b) I avoid the use of the special space character in
IE (see my previous mail), but I have to re-implement the current
behavior of the new WYSIWYG. I need around 2 days for it. Of course,
it
will work for any inline style like bold, italic etc.
I'm +1 for b)
The third choice is to have a different behavior for FF and IE.
Since I don't think we need to bold only a portion of word (I can't
think of a real world use case for it), I'd also prefer b)
(independently of the problem of implementing a) for IE).
Just to be sure, if I type the following:
* Type "hello"
* Hit space
* click on bold
* type "world"
Will "world" be in bold?
Thanks
-Vincent
