New subject: [xwiki-users] Editing with Wysiwyg

15 May 2008

James,

I too have issues with the WYSIWYG editor messing up pages. When it works -
its great, but when it seems to randomly mess you edits up - ahhh! It
doesn't seem to translate to wiki markup very well sometimes. I understand
there might be a new better WYSIWYG editor being developed perhaps maybe
available this September. Meantime I'd suggest using the wiki editor - it's
quite good when you get used to it and it doesn't mess up your pages
although it doesn't quite have all the features available that the WYSIWYG
editor.

Regards,

Richard

Subject: [xwiki-users] Editing with Wysiwyg

I am having major difficulties with the Wysiwyg editor in both 1.3.2 and
1.4.
If I use Wysiwyg, the text font displayed while in the editor is not the
same as the final wiki page. Often I have several lines that are in a
different font, even though they looked the same while using Wysiwyg. I am
also finding random issues. For example, today I changed the font colour of
an index page and lost all of the links. I am using a standard Toucan skin.

Is it common to have problems with the Wysiwg editor, or is there a fix I
haven't found? I am finding I am spending as much time fixing the appearance
of pages as writing them. Alternatively, is there another wiki with better
editing.

Thanks
