As a transcription editor I want to edit and rearrange transcription content as numbered lists so that I can correct line wrapping introduced to match printed editions.

[rlskoeser]

testing notes

• TEI to html conversion should preserve line numbers from the TEI (unnumbered lines are being converted to paragraphs; lines are converted to ordered lists; line numbers starting with something other than 1 are converted to order list with a start attribute)
• in the transcription editor, the lines should display and be editable as a regular ordered list
• test editing a wrapped unnumbered line to clean up the formatting (here's one example: https://test-geniza.cdh.princeton.edu/en/documents/646/transcribe/228/ )

dev notes

• revise tei to html conversion to generate ordered lists (with start attributes when needed) so they can be edited in TinyMCE (done as part of tei to annotation conversion)
• revise list styles for transcription to remove counter and display the actual marker element from the ordered list

revisions after testing:

• update public image+transcription viewer margins to handle new list styles
  • display full number two-digit numbers
  • when scrolling to second transcription, numbers should not show on the left
  • style unnumbered paragraphs between lines so they aren't as jarring

@rlskoeser @richmanrachel and I get the second number cut off in lines that have more than 1 digit - so we just see a bunch of 1s and 2s for lines in the 10s and 20s. This problem goes away in the transcription editor, but on the public site when it's just displaying the transcription, this is what we see.

@rlskoeser we're not seeing the unnumbered line for the document you linked (the one of which I took a screenshot above). What should we do?

[rlskoeser]

@kseniaryzhova I meant the text between lines 3 and 4 and between lines 19 and 20

[richmanrachel]

@rlskoeser - it looks like the editor itself is handling the wrap text correctly (here's the same doc as in Ksenia's pic above):

I agree that it looks a little funny on the viewer side to not have parts of the same line indented.

[richmanrachel]

Line numbers are not showing up in the search results anymore (which was a really useful feature so I knew where in the document to look):

[richmanrachel]

I'm not quite sure how to test the first and third point, but I think things are working... This doc has a mixture of numbered lines and margins without line numbers and it looks good: https://test-geniza.cdh.princeton.edu/en/documents/3874/

@richmanrachel I want to make sure I'm understanding your comment here correctly:

What I understand is that you were able to edit and correct the wrapped lines fine in the editor, but you would like us to improve the display of the migrated version so the unnumbered lines don't stick out as much. Is that right?

@rlskoeser - yes, that's right!

[rlskoeser]

@blms would you also adjust the styles so paragraphs in transcription match the indentation and spacing of lines of text? (ideally only paragraphs between lines; we could set a class on the <p> when we migrate if that would help)

[blms]

@rlskoeser I'll try with CSS sibling selectors first and let you know if it will need a class.

This looks better - closing!
