--- Comment #25 from kipod <[email protected]> --- i am not sure you understand the precise nature of this request, so let me elaborate: what we ask (at least, this is what i asked - see bug 51897, which was marked as duplicate of this one) is that when the user types "[[", VE will remove the "[[" from the page, and behave as if the user typed <Ctrl>+K, i.e. open the "Link" form. simple and easy, VE already recognizes that the user typed "[[" - all we ask is that instead of jumping less-than-useful-and-often-out-of-screen popup, VE will do something good and useful for the community, for society, and for humanity. in the same way, when the user types "{{", remove it from the page and behave as if she clicked on the puzzle piece, instead of jumping the less-than-useful popup. easy to do, simple, and does not go against any principle in UI design, except sheer stubbornness of the VE team. unfortunately i am not able at this time to provide a patch, but 92.24% of the code is already in place - just find where VE jumps the popup, and do something useful instead. peace. -- 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
