bullet list problem


Posted on Dec 9, 2009 by Happy Dog

A number of people seem to be reporting problems with bullet lists. I believe the following steps demonstrate what may be the underlying problem:

Open a new page and type the following:

<Ctl-Shift 8> a <enter> b <enter> c <enter> <Ctl-Shift 8> d

Now, open the node in text editor. You will see the following:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt; <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt; <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>New Page</title> </head><body><ul><li>a</li> <li>b</li> <li>c</li> </ul> d<ul><li></li> </ul> </body></html>

Notice that in the third to last line, the typed in letter "d" is at the start of the line rather than between <li></li>.

I think a number of things are broken because of this. Among other things, when I terminate a bullet list by typing <Ctl-Shift 8> on an empty line, the cursor appears at the expected indentation level, but the entered text appears with no indentation.

On the other hand, if I enter some text on the new line first and then type <Ctl-Shift F8>, the indentation is as expected.

That is, the problem only occurs if I type <Ctl-Shift F8> to terminate the bullets immediately after <enter> (on an empty new line).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I am using Version 0.6 on Ubuntu.

Please provide any additional information below.

Very nice piece of software. Much appreciated.

I have made a number of updates to keepnote 0.7.4 and testing version 0.7.5 to address this issue. Do you see improved behavior now? http://keepnote.org/#download-test
