Subject: [xwiki-users] wysiwyg editor on 1.4.1
Been having some strange results with the editor, mostly raised by my users
(who're more used to the previous version of wysiwyg).. problems tend to
range from the following (bear in mind that the users involved are using
mainly the xwiki blog pages, updated to the correct version via the xar):
-- Lost chunks of text - usually related to the indent/bullet-point
feature. This is the most pressing issue..
-- "Strange" behavior of text - it puts a text box around random texts in
the edit page; making it hard to "group select" chunks of text
-- Loss of indentation, if indentation is used on paragraphs these are lost
when saving. It should be noted they are still there when you copy-paste
the text from the view layout.
-- Similar to indentation, loss of spacing - put 4 spaces before the first
word of a line, and it will render as 4 spaces when you save the first
time. However, go to the edit view and the spaces before the first word are
removed in the edit window, and if you save again spaces are removed from
the view as well permanently thereafter
-- "Strange" behavior of the bullet points - if you don't have a blank
bullet at the end of a block of bullet points, the last one is usually
removed.
Has anyone else had these issues, or perhaps have I got an odd setup? From
What I can see, this is affecting mainly documents created prior to
upgrading, however that's probably down to those being the documents users
have used so far.
Yes Joe, I am seeing the same problems. They started when I upgraded to v1.4. It's a
very serious problem for my users, almost all of whom use the WYSIWYG editor instead of
the wiki editor.
