Re: Condition applied to text inset not being saved

[Dan Emory <danemory@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In order for conditional text tags to work on text insets, they must be
applied to the text inset in its source document, not in the document into
which it is imported. So, in the text inset's source document, you must show
the conditional tag applied to it, else it will disappear there. Then, in
the document that imports the text inset, you hide that same conditional
text tag to make it disappear. The only way to stop this behavior is to
convert the text inset to text in the document into which it was imported.
Then, you can apply the conditional text tag to it in that document.
