Format dropdown and enterMode CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR

Hello,

I want to use <br /> when the user hits enter, so I put this in the config file : config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR;

But when I want to format some text into a heading (H1,H2 etc.), all the text in the editor is put inside the heading tag. If i use <p> as the enter.Mode, it only applies to the paragraph where the cursor is. (which is ok)

Is there a way to apply a format tag only to the text selection, instead of the whole block element?

If not, how can you use format tags if the enter.Mode is <br />? I'm starting to think that you can't...then why allow this mode in the first place?

thanks for your help!

Hi,
i'm looking for the same function.
Is there a way to apply a style to a selection instead of a block using the block's styles?

Thanks!

For me, i want to be able to choose what tag must follow what other tag on [ENTER] keypressed.

Something like :

config.enterNextTags : [ 
        'h1' : 'p', 
        'h2' : 'p', 
        'h3' : 'p',
...
        'code' : 'code',
        'blockquote' : 'div',
        '*' : 'br' 
] ;

The function is interesting but we won't consider support it right now, since it could be achieved with 'Enter Key' + 'Format Combo' manually.

I have the same question. Like instead of providing the whole block <p>, allocate only the selected text in the header h1
