Windows 10 (up to date)
Calibre 6.18.1 (latest)
Sigil 2.0.1 (Qt 6.5.2)
Page Edit 1.9.10
and 2.0.0
@KevinH - firstly, the calibre Rich Text (aka Long Text and Comments) column editor does support tables, what it lacks is a widget to create one - i.e. one of these:
I pasted the body of your table into the HTML view of a calibre Rich Text column:
I then copied the Normal View into the clipboard
I pasted that into Page Edit 1.9.10
Which resulted in this in Sigil 2.0.1
I then installed Page Edit 2.0.0, and pasted the same clip from Calibre into it
Which resulted in this in Sigil 2.0.1
This is the HTML of the Rich Text column I'm pasting into PE,
Code:
<div>
<p>*</p>
<table border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
<tbody><tr>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><span style="background-color: transparent">Hello 1</span></p></td>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><strong>Hey!</strong> 2</p></td>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><span style="background-color: transparent">Hi 3</span></p></td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><span style="background-color: transparent">Bye 4</span></p></td>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><em>Ta-ta</em> 5</p></td>
<td bgcolor="transparent">
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px; background-color: transparent"><span style="background-color: transparent">Duh 6</span></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<p>*</p></div>
The transformation from what I pasted originally was done by the calibre Rich Text Editor.
Question is - why does it work in PE 1.9.10 and not in PE 2.0.0
