About Redmine Markdown Preview & Converter
> Detailed Description:
This extension brings a modern Markdown editing experience to legacy Redmine environments that still rely on Textile formatting — no server changes required.
> What it does:
Side-by-side preview — a persistent split panel next to Redmine editors (issues, wiki, news, messages) renders Markdown or Textile in real time with GitHub-style formatting.
Syntax selector — switch between Markdown and Textile mode with a single click.
One-click conversion — convert Markdown → Textile or Textile → Markdown. A Restore button lets you undo the conversion instantly.
Auto-detection — empty editors default to Markdown. Existing content is analyzed with a Textile-first / Markdown-assisted heuristic. Large pastes trigger re-detection automatically.
Scroll synchronization — editor and preview scroll positions stay roughly synchronized.
Syntax highlighting — code blocks are highlighted automatically.
100% local — all preview and conversion logic runs inside your browser. No data is ever sent to an external service.
Supported Redmine pages:
Issues (notes and descriptions), Wiki, News, Messages/Forums.
