I think the following is what @VirgoGirl is referring to. This is what I see when editing comments in Win10.
If I enter "The synopsis." (no quotes) in the comments box, the HTML source box looks like:
Code:
<div>
<p>The synopsis.</p></div>
If I then select the paragraph text and press the Bold tool button in Normal view the HTML source has changed to:
Code:
<div>
<p style="font-weight: 600">The synopsis.</p></div>
i.e. no <strong> tags to be seen.
The only way I can get <strong> tags is by not selecting the whole paragraph before using the Bold button, e.g.
Code:
<div>
<p><strong>The synopsis</strong>.</p></div>
It's a similar situation when using the Italic button which gives you:
Code:
<div>
<p style="font-style: italic">The synopsis.</p></div>
rather than <em> tags if you select the whole paragraph.
I don't know whether it's fixable or it's just another "this is what Qt does" quirk.
