Hi! Congratulations, this software has been so helpful to us translators.

While working with the tool we have encountered some issues that we’d like to report:

(1) Preview breaks when there is an empty line in between parent and children of a nested list.

This was found while translating a file in the translationWords repository.
In this file there is a list written like this:

 1. First item

    * First nested item
    * Second nested item

2. Second item

    * First nested item
    * Second nested item

...

When the software finds an empty line in between the parent item and the child item it breaks the preview making the child item cover the whole width of the screen and making it hard to check the translation from the software.
I guess this happens because it first separates the text segments in blocks if it finds an empty line in between, and then tries to render each block, so it breaks after trying to render a block that has a nested list item without a parent.

  • Quick temporal solution: edit the file removing the empty lines in between nested lists.

  • Possible fix: The software should look forward after finding a list item and check if the following text segment is a nested list item. If that’s the case don’t separate them in different blocks.

(2) Software keeps removing <sup></sup> tags when editing a file.

After editing any block in the file through the app it will randomly remove the <sup></sup> tags.

  • Quick temporal solution: add the <sup></sup> tags last. After the rest of the file is done editing.

(3) Consecutive indented lines are misrendered

In another file, there is a portion of the text written like this:

> But **godliness** with **contentment** is great **gain**. (1 Timothy 6:6 ULT)
> > But **being godly** and **content** is very **beneficial**.
> > But we **benefit** greatly when we **are godly** and **content**.
> > But we **benefit** greatly when we **honor and obey God** and when we are **happy with what we have**.

But it is rendered like this:

But godliness with contentment is great gain. (1 Timothy 6:6 ULT)

But being godly and content is very beneficial. But we benefit greatly when we are godly and content. But we benefit greatly when we honor and obey God and when we are happy with what we have.

in this case it ignores the line breaks and renders all the consecutive indented lines as if they were just one indented line.

  • Quick temporal solution: add a line with a < symbol between each pair of indented lines in the markdown file.

Thank you so much again for the great work, I hope this report is useful.

God bless you all.

P.D.

It would also be nice if something like this: GitHub - OpusCapita/react-markdown: Markdown editor (input) based on React) , could be added to the tCore Create app.

Some translators have had trouble understanding how to use Markdown to format text so adding a formatting menu like the one above would be very useful.
