Leading inconsistencies with new editor
I created post B as an article in the backend. Even when creating it using the new editor, the leading appeared different – there was less space between the lines after I hit 'enter.' I tried hitting enter twice, but it looked like far too much space between lines. When I published the post, the leading was retained – either too little or too much, depending on how many times I hit "enter."
Now this post has an inconsistent look compared to the others, even when I tried to edit it from both the front-end and the control environment. (Editing from the front-end also showed me the new editor, but the blue button reads "send" when it should read "save.") This looks somewhat unprofessional.
Just wanted to bring this to inSided's attention and find out whether the leading specifications will be maintained for consistency. Thank you!
**Edited to add that I also just found out that the links I included in Post B are opening in the same tab, rather than a new tab, which is the default for other post links. I don't see any way to adjust this when editing, either from the front-end or the control environment.**
POST A
POST B
SEND INSTEAD OF SAVE
Also weird that it says "Send" instead of save........

We are working on making the editor available in the community as well, when this is done there will be a unified creating and editing experience across the entire platform. Still, for very old posts there may be some minor inconsistencies when you want to edit them as they were created in and older editor.
We'll look into the 'save changes' button and the link issue you mentioned. If you have more feedback let us know

Thanks for the info,
I wish that the new editor could preserve the existing leading formatting, as I feel those posts are easier to read – the paragraph breaks are visible but they are not very noticeable in the new editor. If I add an additional line break, then the gap is too much.
Thanks for looking at changing the text on the 'save' button – it's okay for admins in the backend but this would be very confusing for our community members.
Hi
Thanks a lot for your feedback.
I’d like to give you an update about consistency problem around spacing and line heights.
Here is a proposal of how topics would look like with combinations of different elements. And it will be applied consistently in the following places:
- All topic pages in destination
- Moderate topic pages in control
- Editor
Happy to hear your feedback :)
Thanks,
Hi
Paragraphs will have bottom margin of 24px, which look like this:
Some users seem to have an issue with bottom margins if you press enter. They expect the margin to be the same size as the whitespace between lines in a single paragraph.
