Question re code view

Hendrixxxxxxxx · 12-05-2015, 12:43 AM

Is there a way of, say, placing line between paragraphs in code view, for ease of view and editing?

I don't want to change anything in the actual document, simply to place a line between paragraphs in code view in Sigil.

Possible? Or no?

Thanks

If you select Preferences > Clean Source > Pretty Print Gumbo and tick the Open check box, Sigil will automatically insert lines between paragraphs.

Excellent. Thanks Doitsu.

Be forewarned that Pretty Print/Prettify will soon become something the user manually DOES to a file (or all files), rather than something that gets automatically done upon opening/saving.

The Clean Source settings will be simplified to the choice of whether or not to allow gumbo to do its minimally invasive "mending" of source-code upon open/save (that's the "Google Gumbo-Parse option in current versions).
