anweid Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 The German Affinity Publisher 1.8.0.502 shows the following two small bugs when trying to add index entries: Nothing is selected, the Index studio is not active (0:00). If you now go into the text and activate the Index studio, the Add marker button stays disabled, even though the text cursor is located at a point that should allow an index marker (0:02-0:09). Only after moving the cursor somewhere else and back again is adding a marker possible (0:09-0:21). The Topic name edit field of the Add index marker dialog allows pasting text from the clipboard, which is nice. Unfortunately, text is pasted including paragraph formatting here, which seems strange: In (0:22-0:36), I select the word list in the bulleted paragraph, copy it to the clipboard, open the Add marker dialog and paste from clipboard, which not only pastes the word 'list', but '• list' (meaning <bullet><space><space>list). The same is valid for (0:40-0:55), where the word list copies from the numbered paragraph is pasted including the numbering. It would be nicer if the Add marker button would be correctly enabled/disabled when the Index studio gets activated, and if pasting inside the Topic name field would strip paragraph formatting. index.mp4
