Hi..i was wondering whether i can copy/paste text by default into its own para/p tag. Are there any settings for this ? Currently, when i paste text there is no tag  (unless pasted in an existing p tag) and the para/p tag has to be added individually. Thanks !

You can specify this in the .dcf file (doctype configuration file), which is located in the same directory as the .dtd file.

 

The relevant element in the .dcf file is <ElementListItem>, which is within the <InsertAroundToFix> element, which is within the <ContextTransformations> element. You will have to insert any of these elements that are not already present.

 

Set the element attribute on <ElementListItem> to the name of the tag you want to be automatically inserted when you paste text. For example:

 

<ContextTransformations>
<InsertAroundToFix>
<ElementListItem element="para"/>

 

HTH!

I see InsertAutoWithin and then a Modify Attributes dialog box opens. Could you possibly upload a screenshot of it. Thanks !

Hi,

 

I'm putting in the same text, but text dragged outside the para is not yet taking the para tag by default.
