Replace tag with different one?

Post by Christian »

How do I quickly replace a tag with w different one? Say, I want to change

This is <bold>emphasized</bold> text.

to

This is <em>emphasized</em> text.

The contextual menu when being on <bold> does not offer a "Replace with tag" option, only a "Surround with tag" which is not what I want. Currently, it seems I have to edit both start and end tag manually. Is this correct?

Regards, Christian.

Hi Christian,

Yes, you cannot change the start and end tag in a single operation in oXygen 4.2.
We were thinking of automatically changing the matching close tag when the start tag is edited but this may cause confusion to users especially when the end tag is not visible. Probably we will end up with a rename tag action as you described.

Best Regards,
George
