[PRO]: Using AI resets text styles

[schnubor]

Which packages did you experience the bug in?

extension-ai

What Tiptap version are you using?

2.2.4

What’s the bug you are facing?

Hey,

I was wondering if it's somehow possible to keep the active font size after certain AI operations are applied to the selected text? Here's an example I recorded in the official template:

CleanShot.2024-03-28.at.23.37.35.mp4

Is this a bug or just missing functionality of the extension? Any other way to keep the font size (and potentially any other text styles)? I originally created this issue in the template repo, but I think it might be a more general thing.

What browser are you using?

Chrome

Code example

What did you expect to happen?

I understand that it's difficult to keep text styles on individual words/characters within the selection since they get completely replaced. However, keeping text styles (font size, bold, etc.) that are applied to the entire selection or paragraph would be great.

Anything to add? (optional)

I cannot watch your video but we are experiencing the same issue when streaming is set to true. If set to false, it respects the formatting but it takes forever.

We are working on some updates to the ai extension, I will see if we can get this fixed as well

So after looking into it more I've narrowed it down to insertContentAt where if what is supplied is a node, it will replace the whole node, which does not maintain the marks. I don't see an obvious solution to this, but will keep it in mind as we go.
If the content that is generated is just text, then it will preserve marks just fine.

The reason that this does not work in streaming mode is that we try to apply the "aiMark" which then ends up removing previously applied marks.
