Seems to be a bug when editing a comment and changing the color.

Turhan Fuad

If you select a portion of text and set its color to say red

then select a subportion of that text and change it to green it won't work as it just wraps the colors and it seems to use the outer color (despite showing the correct color in the edit box)

 

{color:#ff0000}Sample {color:#00ff00}Content{color}{color}

both Sample and Content will appear as red

Hello Turhan,

Thank you for bringing this up, and the text color is not being modified correctly there, post edit it should technically be the following format to render correctly on the edit:

{color:#ff0000}Sample {color}{color:#00ff00}Content{color}

What version are you running so I can add it to the list, I was playing around with this a little on a few different versions 8.0, 8.1 and 7.11 and I found that it seems to work in this format if you do the edit in visual mode but if you make an edit to the color code in text mode it fails to render correctly and defaults to the first color encoding only.

This looks like a new bug but is slightly related to this one we are already tracking (Cloud and server respectively) here:

• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-65588
• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-66310

So I have created this as a New bug to track the slightly different behavior and linked the issues together for additional review, the new bug on the editing behavior can be seen here:

• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-69279
