Hi Chris,
concerning the criteria for the determination of the longness of a node,
in the bug report
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1875776&group_id=7118&atid=107118
I suggest a patch:
- // if the node is not already html, we ask if rich text or plain text
edit.
- if(!isHtmlNode && editDefinitivelyLong) {
+ // if the node is not already long, we ask if rich text or plain text
edit.
+ if(!node.getIsLong() && editDefinitivelyLong) {
What's wrong with this? Isn't the getIsLong function just what we look for?
Thanks, Eric
