Wow! Thanks a lot Kim for this plugin.
Just a little problem. I write in French and this language uses very often non breaking spaces especially before exclamation marks, interrogations marks, ending quotations marks, and so on. So I very often have something like this : Code:
aaa^[blabla] ! Code:
aaa² ! Code:
aaa² ! An idea? |

Most likely the plugin didn't delete the non-breaking spaces, but merely replaced them with Unicode characters.
You can test this by installing and running the ShadyCharacters plugin. If that brings back the entities, select Edit > Preferences > Preserve Entities and and add to the list. |

I have no idea why it's doing so (should be grabbing and using just whatever is between the []'s. I'll look into it, but I have some deadlines for other stuff, so it may be some days, before I get round to it. Regards, Kim |

Just a note about this. Instead of a "normal" non-breaking space, consider using a thin one:  . It could be unsupported in some fonts, but I think every modern reader's default font has it now, and it looks much better.

I'm afraid I cannot reproduce your problem (Sigil 0.9.6, no "preserve entities" set. Windows 10). The " !" in your sample is outside the []' and thus not touched by the plugin, which make me suspect the problem lies somewhere else. I've made a small sample epub containing the offending code untitled.epub, and running the plugin doesn't alter anything in it - alle entities are preserved. Please try it and let me know the result (you could send me the resulting file.) That is by design. "²" is very nice and printed-book-like, but almost unusable on a small touch-screen reader or computer, so I put in the ekstra word to make the note links a little bigger. You and anyone else are of course free to edit my code to suit your purposes and preferences ![]() Regards, Kim |

+1 to that,
and maybe at bit OT: but why is nobody extending the link (< a > tag) so that the endnoted word itself is the hyperlink? HTML Code:
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, <a href="#fn1" id="fnref1">consectetur <span class="footnoteRef">1)</span></a> adipiscing elit. </p> Code:
span.footnoteRef { text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 1px dotted; color: inherit; position: relative; top: -0.5em; font-size: 70%; } |

I put the reference number in brackets either with a less than normal font-weight value (e.g. 200) or colour, so something like this. [23] That's big enough to touch or click, whilst being unobtrusive. BR |

If, however, the user in question has removed from his list of entities to preserve, it would explain why it's being replaced by a normal space after the plugin run (or an epub save and subsequent reopen). Last edited by DiapDealer; 10-23-2016 at 05:54 PM. |

I just installed Sigil 0.9.6 on another computer, where Sigil has never been installed before, and yes, is there by default (I actually set # 160 ; in my working copy of Sigil many Sigil versions ago, since that is what I normally use. I removed it for the sake of the experiment here). Then I installed my plugin on this virgin installation, and ran it on a file. None of the entities in the file was altered - not by running the plugin, not after a save as and reopening. I then removed the from the "preserve entities", closed and reopened Sigil, opened the file again and ran the plugin. Same result. I simply cannot reproduce the error. Hence I must conclude that something else is afoot. |

Issue with the plugin
Hi;
I'd like to work -with this plugin- incrementally but it gives me an error message: Spoiler:
Of that way, it's impossible for me to add new footnotes once I have added footnotes previously with the plugin. Can this issue be fixed? Thank you very much in advance. Rubén |

That might be fixed by letting the plugin check for existing footnote.css - I'll look into it next weekend - but still, this is not footnotes the MSWord/Libreoffice way, and I doubt it's possible to get that functionality in Sigil. (But ideas are welcome, and anyone are welcome to tamper with my probably rather crude coding.) Regards, Kim |
