8438 - indent wraps

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[sujay]

using 6/17 build of apprunner on Windows

1) launch apprunner
2) launch editor
3) highlight some text
4) keep hitting indent

notice it wraps the text to the next line...


4.x product doesn't do this...text should all stay together and not get kicked
to next line as you're indenting it...

This is a layout bug.  Nav 4 and IE5 seem to expand the document width when the
document contains nested blockquotes, so the wrapping Sujay sees does not
happen.  I think initial document load of a file with nested blockquotes is ok,
it's incremental reflow in the case of adding nested blockquotes that's the
problem.

Another one for your special talents (TM).

It's not a bug (at least with current builds). In particular, if the text you
are formatting is normal text (not "formatted" text) then performing the indent
in both mozilla5 and nav4 yield the same result - as you increase the indent
level, the normal text reflows to a narrower and narrower area until it has been
minimized, all the time moving to the right. Eventuall you get a horizontal
scroller.

If you do the same thing with formatted text, then in mozilla5 and nav4 the text
doesn't reflow any narrower, but it does move progressively over to the right.
