Hi, yes the current code works as expected, meaning as it is implemented, but not as it should ;-). An empty "char" attribute is currently not a workaround for the ignored "ignored" attribute. I meant it just as an alternative, because you where thinking about removing "ignored". So it would be either handling "ignored" attributes or not ignoring empty "char" attributes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
