Punctuation missing at end of paragraph and \qt marker

Question

When running the Basic Checks–>Punctuation tool, I’m getting a large number of errors saying “Punctuation missing at end of paragraph”. Most of these are cases where there is zero punctuation followed by a \qt marker.

In the Tools-->Checking Inventory-->Markers missing final punctuation inventory, if the marker is “p” and the final punctuation is “none”, it’s marked as invalid. That is as we want it.

It appears that for some reason PT is identifying the \qt marker as the beginning of a new paragraph. I’ve checked and my custom.sty file isn’t overriding the default usfm declaration that \qt has \StyleType Character (I had wondered if it was accidentally set to Paragraph).

I have to admit not completely understanding style types, so I thought I’d check here before filing a bug report. Have I set something up wrong, or is there some reason PT appears to identify a new paragraph whenever a \qt marker occurs?

Answer 1

This has already been reported as an issue and will hopefully be fixed in the near future.

Answer 2

In the meantime you will have to “deny” the errors involving punctuation and the \qt marker.
