Themes: modifiable, or I’d like to suggest parts of one

fjpoblam 12 years ago in General updated 12 years ago 3
Suggestion: modifiable themes. Or if you don’t want to bother with that, I have a suggested theme. Why? On my laptop, my editor is BBEdit, and my suggestion will reflect what I’m using there. The goal is to make things easier to find while editing, while remaining somewhat subtle, less garish. The theme I’m using in Textastic is “Mac Classic”, which comes close to my needs. Here’s a description of my ideal theme, for just HTML and CSS. Colors approximate, shown as HTML web-safe names.
HTML:
Text, code punctuation, failed code—black;
tag names (e.g., “<a” of “<a href.…”)—mediumblue (#0000cd)
tag value names (e.g., “href" of “<a href=”)—darkblue (#00008b)
quoted tag values (e.g., “120” of “<img height='120'”)—green (#008000)
unquoted tag values (e.g., “120” of “<img height=120”)—purple (#800080)
entity names (e.g., “&”)—maroon (#800000)
comments (e.g., “<!--…-->”)—darkgray (#a9a9a9)
text and comments—font-weight:normal; else—font-weight:bold;
CSS:
element name (e.g., “p” of “p{color:black}”)—mediumblue (#0000cd)
element value name (e.g., “color” of “p{color:black}”)—darkblue (#00008b)
quoted element value (e.g. “Helvetica Neue” of “p{font-family:'Helvetica Neue'…})—green (#008000)
unquoted element element value (e.g.,“black” of “p{color:black}”)—purple (#800080)
special values (e.g.,“#000” of p{color:#000}”)—maroon (#800000)
comments (e.g., “/*…*/”)—darkgray (#a9a9a9)
failed code (e.g.,“p color: black”)—black
comments—font-weight:normal; else—font-weight:bold

So that if a file has been changed elsewhere than Textastic App, automatically downloads the files modified (you can change that in the settings as well)

Fortran subroutine/function folding

Li Dong 13 years ago in General 0

I would like Fortran subroutine/function folding! This is definitely needed when browsing Fortran codes no matter they are written by me or others.

Ability to import fonts for HTML so we can see the result

Michael Barno 13 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 1
Hi, can you add the ability to import your own fonts to the app. That way we can set fonts through HTML and view it with that font. Thanks.

And by the way this app was worth the $9! Keep it coming!

Basic error reporting

Diego Chuman 11 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 1
I am a web developer, I find it stressing that after I code happily on my iPad, I have to go home and fix all the errors on my computer.
I just wish if you could at least offer errors such as spelling mistakes and simple PHP errors, then I would be a lot more glad!

For switching quickly between files, example, I read a plist I created representing a default value array and I wanted to write it into code. Since its a large plist I need to switch back and forth from the file to the plist

Multimarkdown table support broken

MultimarkdownGuy 12 years ago in General updated by Nick Newbill 7 years ago 1
The following table should correctly render with column spanning in multimarkdown mode. It does not.

| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 |
| -------- | :------: | -------- | -------- |
| No span | Span across three columns |||

Error: the file couldn't be opened

freeranger 10 years ago in General updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 10 years ago 1

Using the latest version of Textastic for iPhone or iPad, the "recent files" list does not work for files from OneDrive.

Here is what I do:

- Open.. and find a file on onedrive - the file opens fine

- Go back to the menu and click on "Recent Files"

- select the file I just opened

- get an error "The file couldn't be opened".


If I go via the Open... link again and find the same file, I can open it again no problem.

I do find then that it now appears twice in the "Recent Files" menu - from the first attempt and now the second attempt, and neither of them work,
