------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jun 7 02:13:51 -0700 2005 ------- I do not believe this is desired functionality, and heres some reasons why. Say you are creating a new document. And have just finished a new paragraph. You hit enter to start a new paragraph, then decide you want to add a line to the last paragraph after all. At this point, people who use word processing a lot will hit backspace to go back up to the paragraph. This is because they dont want trailing whitespace left over at the end of the document because of edits. It is very easy for this function to delete the tab without the user seeing it happen. ie, if the paragraph is split over a page. Typists use backspace, programmers use delete. It may seem logical from the engineering perspective to preserve the data from the paragraph with focus. Sadly, humans are not logical. Conceptually, when you join two linear things together, the first thing in the set takes precedence. Even if the user finds it logical to preserve the data from the paragraph with focus, this function will always delete tab data from the paragraph. Even if the user wanted to alter the prior paragraphs style to the next one, they can not do so, because hitting backspace at the start of a paragraph destroys any tab setting. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
