Bug ID: 59192
Summary: VisualEditor: if you copy a table and paste it into
an existing table, the new material should overwrite
the old contents (like copying and pasting in a
spreadsheet does)
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: jforres...@wikimedia.org
Reporter: wmf.whatamido...@yahoo.com
CC: jforres...@wikimedia.org, jh...@wikimedia.org,
krinklem...@gmail.com, ryasm...@wikimedia.org
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Steps to reproduce:
1) Begin with an existing wikitext table (e.g., 4 rows, 4 columns). Open the
page in VisualEditor.
2) Copy part of a different table or spreadsheet (e.g., 2 rows, 4 columns).
3) Place cursor inside a cell of the table in VisualEditor.
4) Paste the copied table.
Results:
VisualEditor places the entire new/rich-copied table, including wikitext
formatting, inside the first cell. The wikitext parser does not deal very
gracefully with table-within-table formatting.
Desired outcome:
VisualEditor should overwrite the contents of the cells with the new material.
