The SovereignSourceMapper injects a unique data-fsid into every HTML element, linking each element to the exact character offset in the source text – click any element to jump to its source line.
- Fully automatic: Headings automatically receive unique IDs for tables of contents
- Sovereign override: Use
{#custom-id}after a heading to override automation - HTML integrity: Pure HTML tags remain untouched
In this example, hovering over "Technical Appendix" triggers a blue highlight. Clicking jumps directly to the corresponding line in the editor – automatically selected and ready to edit.
