Bug ID: 441541
Summary: Comments break preview
Product: markdownpart
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kosse...@kde.org
Reporter: geisse...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I usually put up a comment on top of my Markdown files, for copyright and
licensing information. However, this seems to break the markdownpart preview
generator.
In Markdown, commens are indicated by `<!-- -->`, with the comment text placed
in between the hyphens.
Example:
```markdown
<!-- SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2021 Manuel Geißer <geisse...@gmail.com> -->
<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: CC-BY-4.0 -->
# Test
Description
## Sec 1
* a
* b
## Sec 2
* c
* d
```
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Paste the above example into Kate or KDevelop
2. Open the Preview panel
3. Click the play button
4. View result
5. Remove the two comment lines
6. View result
OBSERVED RESULT
With the comments, no preview is visible, only a single dot.
Without the comments, the preview looks correct.
EXPECTED RESULT
The preview should always represent the markdown code correctly, even if there
is a comment.
