I agree with Hitch. Use heading styles (and other/own styles) in Word for structure. That will help tremendously. Styling I do in Sigil and my structure is already there in that case.

Clicking on the p taskbar icon in Sigil when you want a new paragraph is comparable to pressing Enter in Word. The same for clicking h1 for a header. Shouldn't hold up your creative flow too much!

The answer to that is, of course, don't enable auto-clean and restrict yourself to Pretty Print for manual tidying. And press Ctrl-S first!

I certainly have historically not set any type of auto-clean, but I see that in my latest upgrade to 0.7.1, it seems to be reset to auto-clean on open/save with PP. This certainly partly explains the issue, BUT....there's still something glitchy, because as I described, I never did have the opportunity to "manually clean" the missing tag. It was as I detailed, to the best of my recollection, and as it happened twice or so, I think I recall it reasonably well, given how many books have come since. ;-) Hitch |

I will have to keep a real eye out for this next time, to try to catch exactly when this "bug" is occurring, so I can supply exact test cases. |

The same should happen when saving an EPUB or opening an EPUB - you should be prompted that the file is invalid and that cleaning could cause data loss, although it will allow you to open/save an invalid file. If, as has been suggested, you are not being prompted about invalid code when switching to Book View, then that's an issue. I haven't been able to reproduce it, but will try to look into it more to see how that might be possible. I wonder if the prompt to manually or automatically clean should be removed anyway - so that if the code is invalid it will just refuse to switch to Book View. Though if the bug is that the prompt isn't triggering on an invalid file, it won't help much. |

As far as recreating the issue...try having a paragraph with an opening header class and a closing p class, see if that does it, or, try a named paragraph class with some typos, like...forget the italics around a class name, or something like that. I know I had at least one of those errors. I think the "PSO'D" error was the opening a line with a header class and closing it with a paragraph class (or a closing span tag, instead), but...if I can recreate it, I'll send you the file.

My e-mail (really old, Eudora 7) and News (NNTP) programs moved the options to the Tools menu (Are Account Settings, Tools? ) At least it make more sense to me than 'Files' |
