@elpraga is this still happening?
@tobiasKaminsky can you check this, don't have a OO setup

Yes, @AndyScherzinger it is still happening in NextCloud Android app 3.10.1
BTW, why are you mentioning OO setup? Are you taking about OpenOffice?

I referred to Only Office which is available with fresh installs.

I hope @tobiasKaminsky has an idea

The issue I am reporting concerns Markdown files edited by the Text app via webview.

I'm slightly confused. Why did you mention OnlyOffice @AndyScherzinger ?

Because I wasn't sure which app is used in the background for editing (server side wise).
Sorry for the confusion!

How do you preview md file?
For me it always opens directly in online text editor?

It does that when it's not downloaded locally.

When it is downloaded locally, a preview is opened when you click on the file. When viewing the preview, there's an edit button as well. This is the one that does nothing.

Is that what you needed @tobiasKaminsky ?

Totally :-) Thank you for reporting!
Fix will come.
