掲示板 Forums - Discussion: in forum dictionary lookups

I played around with the plugin a bit, and ctrl-z misbehaves a lot. Sometimes it jumps the cursor to the start (without undoing anything), sometimes it undoes the whole sentence, sometimes just one character, sometimes in chunks. Now I understand why sometimes when I try to ctrl-z a minor mistake it completely erases my whole post

It's fine though, I'll just be careful with ctrl-z. Don't worry about that issue.

I figured out how things work (what I showed in the video). I guess I just expected spacebar to "exit" out of the formatted tags, like the arrow keys.

I'm not a huge fan of how the system works in general. It could be related to ctrl-z's weird behaviour. Anyway, I'm just thinking out loud a bit, this doesn't matter that much, and I can easily work around it.

I'm not a web developer, so this might just be a case of industry standard practices being a bit foreign to me.

I'll let you know if I encounter any issues more directly related to the lookup itself. Pretty sure the backspace issue was also ctrl-z related, so I won't bother with that one.

Edit: Yeah, the ctrl-z weirdness is 100% related to the cursor position and the tags.

Update 1: Had some problems with linking in this example. Wasn't working up top (no menu pop-up).

Update 2: Another issue when trying to link sentences using the old system. I get that it's not very elegant, but it does work :D

The new lookup dialogue keeps popping up. I understand why it does it, I'm just pointing it out. Shouldn't be an issue after you add sentences to the lookup.

Update 3: Doesn't open the dictionary (error)

The error:

Update 4: If you click a little too fast you get this.

Very unlikely to be an issue, but I figured I'd let you know.

Also - I think I could knock some of the issues if I disallow spaces in the search. I know that, earlier on, someone looked up second world war, but I'm not sure that (multiple english words) is going to be common enough to justify that jank that comes with allowing spaces.

I'll have to think on it - for now, I'm going to have it cut the trigger if a space is detected.

Shockingly (and I dug through the source code, without much luck), if you jump down to a newline, it considers that newline a space, so there is not a way to say "allow spaces on a line, but stop it if they jump to a newline"

Feels better... I think.

Here's one more - if I type some text, then link 一(いち) ← hit space once and then ctrl-z, the cursor jumps back to the start (left of "Feels"), on a second ctrl-z, it goes back to the link and starts working normally.

Doesn't break anything, but is really weird :)

PS: I'll do some more testing in the morning, it's pretty late over here.

There's a really confusing issue where if a text box has an emoji at the end or an emoji with only a little text after it it won't let you edit the text box after posting the message

Edit: as you can see above, I accidentally added a weird line thing while editing but it refuses to let me delete it

Ok so I think the thing セージ was talking about is that if you click quote, it won't let you delete it very easily, you have to delete it very easily, as you can see above I deleted all the text with the delete button but it won't let me delete the text box or the space above it

Test post demonstrating invisible text.

(look for an email with the video)

This might be too much work/complexity, but you do have all of these separate containers you could potentially target for a more limited quote?

PS: I still need to hit down-arrow to get below the image btw ↑ (might be fixed on mobile, idk)

1. We're talking about when an image is at the "end" of the post (flush with the bottom) right? I'm also not sure what I'm down-arrowing to, but I am :D

I can upload an image to a completely empty post and just hit down-arrow to get to a line below it. This is on PC (Windows), Chrome.

2 (fixed). I can't link YouTube (haven't tried anything else) videos. When I post/save changes they just disappear.

There's just the empty .embed-content div that's left behind.

3. I just noticed the updated quotes. Maybe add a bit of bottom margin? Just so they aren't completely glued together.
