VE preview of changes is confused after switching from section editing using NWE
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

I removed some whitespace at the end of a syntaxhighlight section using VE (because the 2017 wikitext editor had an error which is a separate bug). When I previewed the diff it appeard to show the section I was editing in the before pane with the entire page in the after pane. Here is the edit that caused this.

Event Timeline

I can reproduce, but I don't think this has anything to do with long lines or whitespace.

Reproduction steps:

  1. Enable VE and NWE
  2. Edit a section using NWE
  3. Make changes
  4. Switch to VE
  5. Review your changes in visual mode
