View content without make-up

So sometimes something goes wrong in a textfield (content), and it would be nice to see and edit the actual markdown code, rather than the nicely visually stylized version. So a “Raw Markdown / Code View”, so users can toggle between both modes.

I know that we can copy and paste the markdown into a text editor, edit it, and paste it back in, but it would be nice to do so in fibery if necessary.

Is this already possible? If not then i’d like to propose this as a feature.

It’s not currently possible, but I wonder about this…

What’s going wrong?

We had a callout, but no way to get rid of the callout (we selected and changed the text type, but it didnt remove the callout for some reason).

And whenever we tried to copy/paste the text out of the callout it would just be pasted as another callout box.

It was solved by copying the markdown and removing the callout code/styling using notepad, then pasting the markdown text back into the content section

This also relates to another pain point – we often need to copy in Markdown formatting (like from AI-generated content) – but Fibery often doesn’t recognize it as Markdown, so then you’re left looking at raw markdown. If we could switch back and forth, it would allow us to copy in the markdown formatted text into the ‘raw’ mode and then switch back to formatted. Some other solution would be just as welcome (something to trigger Fibery to check for Markdown – not sure how it does this now). The alternative right now is that we have to go in and enter a space on each line to get it to ‘recognize’ the markdown, or copy paste into some editor and then paste the formatted preview back into Markdown.
