Hence the issue. The behaviour has changed since the last depot it seems. Currently when using Firefox 22 on Xubuntu Linux: *Selecting part of a word and pressing ctrl+k means I can link only the selected part (previously ctrl+k was selecting the whole word and then opening the link dialog). This currently works as it should. *Unlinking part of a word or multi-word link is not possible with the link tool: **If there is the link [[Background]] and I select "ground" and press ctrl+k the selection is changed to "Background" and then the link dialog opens **If there is the link [[Woolwich Arsenal station]] and I select "station" and press ctrl+k the selection is changed to "Woolwich Arsenal station" and then the link dialog opens. (This has not changed since my previous comment) *Selecting part of a linked word or phrase and removing the formatting does remove the link only on the selection, but also removes any and all other formatting on that selection. Per Bug 51757 this is not desirable. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
