Discussion Community Mac: would you explain how to use the quotation " icon?

If you have

Then clicking on the Quote icon marked in Red if NOTHING in the current Reply edit window is NOT highlighted, will insert the entire text from the post your are replying to into the edit window.

If, in the Reply, you have highlighted any text, then when you click on the Quote Icon (again as marked in Red above), then that text you highlighted in the Reply edit window will be quoted

The 2nd half of my reply is good as it is for the Advanced Editor

Howdy Bob

Methinks that you are falling prey to a glitch in the TinyMCE editor regarding Drag & Drop that makes the images the same when done one at a time. If my guess is correct, you are likely in the Advanced Editor.

The solution is to use the camera tool insert image one at a time.

Drives me crazy too, since it doesn't happen every time.

I was most likely in the Advanced Reply Editor as I wanted a screen shot of that toolbar. Most of the time I use the regular Reply Editor, as I don't often need the advanced features. Or I do my edit in the regular, then at the last minute switch to the advanced to use colored text or use the Plain Text format for some code that needs to be fixed width.

Thanks for reassuring me, I'm not crazy and tried to do it right.

It will not appear when you use the Advanced Editor. When you're doing that, you need to go here:

BTW, I cannot in good conscience reassure you that you are not crazy.
