Version: (using KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Problem: Often content needs to be copied and pasted into Web pages from an external source, Word processor document, spreadsheet, e-mail etc. when inserting this sort of content the tag completion in Quanta goes from being helpful to extremely irritating. Steps to reproduce: 1. get some content from an external source, make sure it's split into paragraphs or needs to be converted into a HTML table/list; 2. ensure tag completion is switched on, then copy and paste the content into a Quanta Web page document; 3. try to add markup around the existing content; 4. notice how--when it auto-completes--Quanta puts the tags where they shouldn't be; Expected behaviour: Instead of closing the tags immediately Quanta should wait until the user enters the </ characters before closing the tag automatically. This gives the maximum helpfulness, without user annoyance.
Can you please give an example (where to paste and what to paste)? Would be much easier to track and fix the bug.
What to paste: Imagine you had to convert the table in the file http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/stats/corporate_tax/11_4_oct05.pdf to HTML (that's just a random table I found on the Internet, but is a good example). Select and copy the table on the first page of that PDF to the clipboard. Where to paste: open Quanta, and paste the copied table into the source editor. Then start going through the table adding <td>s around the figures; this is where the tag completion in Quanta gets in the way. Notice that when inserting a <td> Quanta completes it immediately, making <td></td>100,884 for example. This means the user must cut and paste the closing tag after the figure, to make <td>100,884</td>. The desired behaviour is for Quanta to *not complete immediately* but only complete when the user types "</". Hope this makes sense!
Dear users, the Quanta application ceased to exist over 5 years ago. For some of the use cases of Quanta there are nowadays KDevPlatform plugins available (like PHP/Python/... language support plugins). Therefore the old Quanta bugs will now be closed, the Quanta bugzilla product is already closed for new reports. Greetings Christoph
