Attributes of PRE blocks are lost after merging in styles plugin

[Karen Ananiev]

Styles plugin loses the attributes of PRE blocks in mergePre and toPre functions.

Could you please provide us some steps to easier reproduce this issue ? Thank you.

[Karen Ananiev]

Sure. Use the following code:

<pre class="code">
foo</pre>
<p>
	bar</p>

Move cursor to paragraph and select Formatted format. Go to source mode - note that now you have one pre block without any attributes.

Thank you, i can definitely confirm it now.

How do you think the merging should behave when there is a CSS class on more then one element ? Should all classes be merged into one new element ?

[Karen Ananiev]

Generally I don't like this functionality because I have no easy way to create two consecutive pre blocks but if it is really necessary I think that just keeping attributes of pre block should be enough. So if you have the following code:

<pre class="code">
foo</pre>
<p class="text">bar</p>

you should get something like:

<pre class="code">
foo
bar</pre>
