I was trying to make sentences part of a list so I had the history panel
displayed and was using the keyboard in the design section (being in split
mode). I was on a list item and pressed down then Start Of Line (SOL), End Of
Line (EOL), used contextual menu button to choose quick tag editor > LI ending
up with "Wrap Tag : [LI]" in the history. I clicked the down arrow then
shift-clicked wrap tag and clicked replay but the only thing it did was to
select the whole next sentence ...

Am I doing something wrong ? Should I use another way to make a LI ?

Thank you for your kind help,
DynV

Does anyone know anything that could help with this issue ?

Thanks
DynV

1 week reminder

The history panel doesn't record mouse events like button clicks. Sorry.

I didn't use the mouse at all in the design section, here's the original
sentence : [Q]I was on a list item and pressed down then Start Of Line (SOL),
End Of Line (EOL), used contextual menu button to choose quick tag editor > LI
ending up with "Wrap Tag : [LI]" in the history.[/Q] In [h]used contextual
menu button[/h], the button is on the keyboard on the bottom right between CTRL
& Super (or Windows logo) buttons.

But whichever way, I just need to transform part of a text to a tag in the
design section, whether it'd be LI or Q or DT ...

What is the change you want to make? Can it be done with a Find/Replace?

This is precicely what I'd like to do with this sample text in the numbered
list representing block elements identified before the column (:)

[num]P: text[/num]
[num]P: list item 1, list item 2, list item 3[/num]
[num]P: text[/num]

The text in the design section from the last numbered list should be
transformed through automation (history replay) to become like the next one.

[num]P: text[/num]
[num]UL:
[bullet]list item 1[/bullet]
[bullet]list item 2[/bullet]
[bullet]list item 3[/bullet]
[/num]
[num]P: text[/num]

perhaps that the block level elements was unclear so here's the corresponding
HTML:

<p>text1</p>
<p>text2 item 1, text2 item 2, text2 item 3</p>
<p>text3</p>

second list (what I want the first to become):

<p>text1</p>
[BULLET]
[LI]text2 item 1</li>
[LI]text2 item 2</li>
[LI]text2 item 3</li>
[/BULLET]
<p>text3</p>

Please ask if you'd like me to clarify anything

I think you would be able to do this with a find and replace option using
regular expressions. Are you adept at formulating a regular expression
search? Unfortunately, I am not but there are others here who are quite
good.

Murray thank you for your suggestion, I have already had a look at it
unfortunately I don't have the time to learn regex for now so learning to use
the history replay would be great ! if entering HTML code in the design
section would do it that would be great but I doubt it's the case so I'm
looking for the "proper" history way to assign tags to text.

Anyone else would have such experience ? Is there a better way I could bring
attention to the issue ? An IRC channel perhaps or an informal forum ?

I suggest you repost with a new subject line, asking for help with the
Regular expression.
