In the Add and Edit window, clicking the “Add Code Block” window causes the selected code to be formatted as code. There are three ways that I think this could be improved.
- When a section of text is converted to a code block, then it can be annoying to change it back. You either have to undo the changes with CTRL+Z (which is not available if you have saved the changes), go into the HTML and remove the
<pre>
tags manually, or delete the text and paste it without formatting. Could we replace “Add Code Block” with a “Toggle Code” button so that it behaves more like the italics and bold buttons by toggling the code formatting for the selected text? - When a portion of a line is selected (instead of an entire line), can that text be wrapped with
<code>
blocks instead of<pre>
so that the code remains in line? - If the entire text is converted to code, then I would expect that hitting CTRL+A and DEL would clear everything, including the formatting, so I am left with a blank slate. Instead, the code formatting remains until BACKSPACE is hit in the empty text box.
