Topic on Extension talk:VisualEditor

Hello!

I have VE and Extension:Translate installed.

Extension:Translate automatically inserts comments in VE in order to split the paragraphs that need to be translated.

The comments of Extension:Translate always have the following structure:

<!--T:1-->

In VE, this is how it looks like:

This is inconvenient for the users who don't understands why a comment shows up here and why this comment is empty...

In the meantime, I need to keep this comment in wikitext since it is required for the translation.

Is there a way in VE to hide comments? Or, even better, a way to hide empty comments?

Thanks a lot for your support.

Best, Clément

We strongly advise users who want to use the Translate extension not to use VisualEditor; they're only marginally compatible, and break in subtle ways. There's a notice given when you load VisualEditor on a translatable page that things might well not work. Our long-term plan is to consider how we can change translation tools to work together, but that's a long way off at this point, sorry.
