Ok. Here are further investigations - currently three formatting are replacing the selected text: Footnote, Separator and Table. I can imagine situation, where I want to replace some text with, say, table of separator, but I still think it is safer to add Footnote, Separator or Table right after selected text instead of replacing it…
Hello!
This is the standard/intended behaviour, let me explain: if you have selected some text and press a key the text will be replaced, footnotes, separator and tables are just text and they should replace you selection if you’re adding those (even via shortcuts).
We tried a bit of other editors and this seem to be true for all them, so we’re not planning to change this.
Best.
