Author mode - improvements in inserting of elements
Posted: Tue Dec 01, 2009 5:14 pm
Hello,
in Oxygen 11 it is impossible to place elements into inappropriate positions. It is nice feature, but it could be improved a bit. This request is based on my natural sense when a new element is being appended to the previous one. If previous element of my DocBook document is 'para' (block element), I tend to place the following 'para' just after closing tag. This is impossible. If it is clicked there, depending on vertical position either the last text position of previous para is selected or the caret is moved to the next line, just before the closing tag of the parent element.
I would suggest enabling the possibility to place the caret position on the same line just after the closing tag. Here it would be possible to insert a new element, but it would be actually inserted to the appropriate location on the next line.
I don't know if it is technically possible, but from user side it would be a nice enhancement.
Regards,
Jan
