Change Details

If you start to add a link, and change your mind (e.g., you realized that you have the wrong word selected), there is no way to simply cancel adding a link. You have to remove the link with the trashcan icon. Steps to reproduce: 1. Select any word. 2. Press ctrl-K to enter link tool. 3. Attempt to cancel the link by closing the unwanted link tool dialog box using Esc key or the < button. 4. Discover that VisualEditor linked the word anyway. If the Escape key and < button are worthless for escaping/going back/cancelling, then they shouldn't be present or have any effect. -------------------------- **Version**: unspecified **Severity**: enhancement
