I added a conditional tag around some words. Then I selected the next few words of text and added another conditional tag. If I select the next word string from left to right by clicking just past the End tag and using shift-click at the end of my string, there is no problem. However, if I select the next text by clicking at the right end of the string and using Shift-Click just after the first End tag, when I add the second conditional, the first End tag is deleted (or perhaps replaced by the If tag for the second). I have tried it several times, making sure that the first End tag is not part of the highlighted selected text.
The same thing happens if I use Click-and-Drag to select the text: dragging from left to right = no problem. Dragging from right to left = first End tag disappears.
Using the latest build (1121) on XP SP2.

Dean,
Confirmed. Not only that, but the second set of conditional tags entered is not a pair, only the opening tag is entered, so you end up with two opening tags. This is not the current build, however -- it's also present in 1138, so it has probably been around for a while.

Oops - a typo: I meant 1211. But I believe you're right that it's not new. I'm sure I noticed it earlier but didn't bother to test it further at the time.Tim Green wrote:This is not the current build, however -- it's also present in 1138, so it has probably been around for a while.
Obviously it's not a show-stopper, just one of those irksome little bugs.
