+Stephen Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I've noticed when pasting text here, the spacing gets completely messed up. It looks fine in the editor, but when posted, there are 3 to 5 blank lines between everything. I'll drop a small example here. { "comment": "Altirra configuration file.", "_1": "Which asm file is to be compiled?", "input": "sprites.asm" } Also, I no longer see options to add spoiler or code tags. The old style BBCode tags do not work. Finally, when pasting that code block above, I have to leave space in the editor afterwards, or I cannot "escape" the pasted block. Is there a way we can get back the old way of posting such that we can see and edit the markup? You can see in this image what it looks like while I am editing: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, depending on what you're pasting from, items will often get double-spaced, although in this case it's worse than that. It has to do with a setting for the forum where carriage returns in text are displayed with a blank line between text or not. Unfortunately, due to the sheer volume of old posts when the forum was upgraded several years ago (when this change was made), I needed to stick with the original setting so older posts would not suddenly have poor formatting. It's not an ideal situation. 14 minutes ago, Stephen said: Also, I no longer see options to add spoiler or code tags. Spoiler tag: Code tag: These should be visible in all views, mobile (small), tablet (medium), and desktop (large). If you're not seeing these, please let me know and I can investigate. Here's your code above in a code block, I did have to manually remove the extra blank lines: { "comment": "Altirra configuration file.", "_1": "Which asm file is to be compiled?", "input": "sprites.asm" } You can choose several different languages for syntax highlighting in the lower-right corner of the code box (where you paste in your code): Hope this helps, ..Al 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you're using VS Code, I'll see if there's some way to minimize the number of blank lines being inserted. ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Sorry - one more thing I noticed. It seems that the "insert code block" no longer uses a mono-spaced font. This is essential for preserving formatting / indenting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is essential for preserving formatting / indenting. It's definitely using a mono-spaced font in my post above. Can you take a screenshot and show me what you're seeing ?

+Stephen Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Testing code block mono-space: ; Bank $13 to $25 - Screen RAM ; $013000 to $025BFF Screen RAM (320 * 240) ; $025C00 to $025FFF Free space OK - sorry for the false alarm. It was a scaling issue, everything is lined up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
