Nested quotation blocks are incorrectly rendered in LIve Preview

Bug reports

1

Steps to reproduce

Create a hierarchical block-quote and view in both live preview and reading modes.

e.g.:

> one
> > two
> > > three
> > two
> one

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide?

Yes

Expected result

I expect the reading mode to be the same as the live preview mode and for the indentations of the block-quotes to match accordingly.

Live preview mode (correct rendering):

SCR-20250123-okkr
SCR-20250123-okkr810×685 68.5 KB

Actual result

Reading mode (incorrect rendering):

SCR-20250123-okmq

Yes, there is a problem. However it is live preview the wrong one here.p

@WhiteNoise ,

It appears that “live preview” does correctly render the block-quotes, while “reading” mode does NOT.

Thanks

Well, according to the CommonMark spec, you are correct and the Live Preview mode is actually not rendered according to spec.

Thanks for the clarification.
