I tried enabling "Auto Format Markdown in the Rich text editor" and using common markdown conventions, but none of them create a horizontal rule in the rich text editor:
--- Creates a bulleted list *** Creates a bulleted list * * * (the method that the toolbar button uses) - after typing the first two * *, they disappear and get replaced with a nbsp...
Same with Block Quotes, I'm not seeing any keyboard shortcut for this, and when "Auto Format Markdown in the Rich text editor" is enabled, the normal method of using > doesn't do anything.
Not being able to do this with keyboard shortcut is pretty annoying because the horizontal rule and block quote buttons are buried in the overflow menu on the toolbar unless you have a huge screen.
I agree with you. To have shortcuts for every tool in the RTE toolbar should be a basic thing.
I would expect too a 2 lines of buttons possibility or a vertical toolbar with 2 columns or a floating menu...
By the way, for the toolbar I think it would be interesting to have a kind of time delay while all buttons are accessible. To have them all the time is often boring because it hides a part of the note... To have them some seconds is interesting when we have to use them many times successively.
You put 3 stars (or 3 underscores) and you have a line.
You put a word, a space and 3 stars (or 3 underscores) and you haven't a line...
Or the idea is to be able to put a graphical line only if there's nothing else on the text line ?
EDIT.
OK I understand. It's the same behavior expected than in the MDE (I rarely use it)...
So the testing plan is : same behavior in RTE than in MDE...
Good testing plan... LOL !
At this moment (JOPLIN 3.4.1) if we put 3 stars in the RTE we have:
=>
And if we try to put a space between stars: first star and space, nothing happen, second star and space : the 2 stars are deleted !!! Very special behavior...
