--- Comment #11 from Seán Ó Séaghdha <sean.an...@gmail.com> --- While the info on Latex is interesting, it’s not really useful for a GUI program like LO. What happens when the delimiter is part of the text? The simplest solution would be for LO to do NO second-guessing about what is a word or what isn’t a word. You can’t know all possible user contexts. The selection should be accepted as a word or sequence that you want to add one set of ruby text to. As it is, the dialogue is very useful if you’re adding phonetics to continuous text in a language that uses spaces (or maybe where the syllable is predictable), but this feature is most used for Japanese where it’s used more for the occasional unusual or lesser-know pronunciation, not for long stretches of text. The educational use for Chinese might still do that though. Maybe it actually needs two modes? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
