Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- open a discussion and click on the Reply link (exemple)
- write your answer in the box and look at the preview
- then click on the Reply button and look at the result
What happens?:
*the indentation of the reply is not correct.
The reason is that the design of the reply box, with the wikicode mode activated by default ("Source"), is suggesting that the indentation will be done by the ReplyTool, and I have only to write my text, but it doesn't happen.
Instead, for a correct indentation when saving, I have to write as usual my wikicode with colon (ponctuation mark " : ") before the text. But if I write with colon before my text, the ReplyTool preview a double indentation, which doesn't correspond to the result of the saved page.
The design is suggesting the wrong behaviour to users.
What should have happened instead?:
Two possibilities:
- the ReplyTool could retain the current design, but do automatic indentation too (adding the colon?)
- the ReplyTool prevent the indentation preview unless user writes the colon " : " explicitly
