--- Comment #7 from James Forrester <[email protected]> 2012-11-24 02:16:40 UTC --- The "weird blank paragraph" is what a "slug" - a place in the editing interface where the user can insert some content. It needs to be there so that users can successfully place content between blocks, but it isn't an entire line (depending on your User Agent) - once you start entering content, it expands to be the same size as a "real" paragraph, however. An example of this is nested lists - in MediaWiki you can jump straight down to a second level of lists, but in HTML editing you still need to give the user some way to edit the list they're not in. This is why this wikitext: Hello ** There ... produces this in the VisualEditor: Hello * ** There ... the middle "line" is a "slug" that will disappear once you save, but if you need to insert text that's where you can go. We're considering coming up with a little icon, perhaps a little like the cursor character, to make it clear that it's an insertion point rather than an actual blank line, but we're at early days yet. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
