I am currently writing a DITA Task topic. Within a <step> element you can insert a <choicetable> element, which in turn can contain <chrow> elements, representing a row in a special two-column table. When you insert the <chrow> element, Serna thoughtfully also inserts the two obligatory cell elements, <choption> and <chdesc>. Trouble is, in Show Markup mode, the <chrow> element is suppressed for some reason. It is nigh impossible to place the cursor to insert the next <chrow> element. I have tried in the Show Markup and Hide Markup views, and the Content Map outline, but for some reason the cursor finishes up within the <step> element but never within the <choicetable> element after the previous <chrow>. I prefer to try and keep in the document window and use the mouse as little as possible when entering content inititally. But this inconvenience prevent that way of working. Is anyone else experiencing this annoyance/bug?
