Description Sage Ross 2014-10-06 22:33:49 UTC
If there is a line on a page that includes the semicolon syntax, VisualEditor does not handle this well. For example:

<example>
;Foo

Some more text.
</example>

In VE, if I place the cursor either immediately before or immediately after the (bold-formatted) text "Foo", and then I add several new lines, I end up with multiple lines that include the semicolon formatting, such as:

<example>
;Bar
;
;Foo
;Baz

Some more text.
</example>

There is no way (that I can tell) to disable such formatting, and highlighting the (apparently) bold text and trying to select "clear formatting" has no effect.

In 'Edit source' - adding ; in front of a word makes a block displayed in bold in VE You cannot un-bold it in VE.

<dl class="ve-ce-branchNode"><dt class="ve-ce-branchNode"><p class="ve-ce-paragraphNode ve-ce-generated-wrapper ve-ce-branchNode">Foo sjhajshjahssdsd</p></dt><dt class="ve-ce-branchNode"><p class="ve-ce-paragraphNode ve-ce-branchNode">saksjdjskadja</p></dt></dl>

dt {
	.	
display: block;
}

dt {
	.	
font-weight: bold;
	.	
margin-bottom: .1em;
}
