AEM Inline Editor adds "span" tag to text with inline styles when removing a line break

When editing a text component using the inline rich text editor, if I delete a line break (merged 2 paragraphs into one) and then save and close the inline rich text editor, the next time I open that same text component and view its source(in the config editor), a 'span' tag gets added around the paragraph with a lot of unnecessary stylings which I don't want.

Like removing the P tag, you can also remove the Span tag. https://sourcedcode.com/blog/aem/aem-richtext-remove-p-tag-removesingleparagraphcontainer-for-touch-ui

    I have tested on AEM 6.5.12 and We.retail Text component but no span tag has been added.

     

    Please share .content.xml of your text component.

      Hi @amohite 

       

      A couple of quick questions:

      • What's your AEM version
      • What's your core component version
      • Are you seeing any errors in the console?
      • Are you seeing any issues in the logs?
      • Can you check how the data is saved in the JCR once the component is saved?
      • Can you check if there is any custom code written for your RTE?

      Thanks,

      Kiran Vedantam.

        @amohite hi,

         

        I tried performing the same steps on RTE locally. For me it is working fine when I merged the two paras, there are no extra spans added at all. 

         

        I am using AEM 6.5.5

        resourceType :: cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/richtext

        Can you check you dont have any custom code changing the data before saving ?

        Thanks,

        Milind
