Complex insertions not working #147

Open aewingate opened 5 months ago

aewingate commented 5 months ago

It appears that the functionality described here in the encoding guide (both inserting entire <item> elements and inserting <add>) is not working.

In the diplomatic version, text correctly appears in the place where it was originally written, but in the normalized version, the text is not being inserted into where Newton meant it to go and removed from where it was originally written.

You can see this with "Affalia" here from 3v of ALCH00200 image Diplomatic

image Normalized

There's no change. The text shouldn't appear on 3v in the normalized and should instead by inserted into 4r.

Affalia is an example of moving an entire <item>. See 34v/35r of ALCH00200 for an example of moving an <add>

Also, it feels like this is a new bug? I think I would have noticed this problem when I was re-writing the encoding guidelines!
