How to hide/disable new tab UI feature

Gary 12 years ago updated by Abhi Beckert 7 years ago 3 1 duplicate

Hi, how do I hide/disable the new tab feature if I don't want it? I usually manage several single document windows side by side and aim for maximum vertical space, having a single tab UI chrome eating space at the top of a document is rather distracting. Thanks --Gary

command delete

Izaak Miller 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 2

Textastic doesn't appear to support the OS X default behavior for "command + delete" which will delete from the cursor to the beginning of the line. 

Answer

Will be available in v1.1.

Liquid Syntax

Arthur Freitas 6 years ago updated 6 years ago 1

It would be nice to have better Liquid markup support.


There are already some bundles for it, but this one is the only one that works with Textastic, and it has some bugs like `<script>` blocks not being recognized like it happens with the HTML syntax.

Thanks!

Splitting view vertically

Niklas Modin 12 years ago 0
It would be great to be able to split the text view vertically. For instance working on a .h and .c file at the same time and being able to see both files at the same time without the need to start two instances. Also very useful when comparing files.

Double click and drag should keep selection from double click and add to it with the drag.

JakeCarter 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 2

1. Double click and hold over some text. Note that what is under the mouse is highlighted.

2. With the mouse button still 'down', start to drag right to add the next word to the selection.


Expected:

The doubled clicked selection should remain and the next whole word should be added to the selection.


Actual:

The selection will start as if you never double clicked. It will start from where your drag started.

Default Application

Keith Smiley 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 2

After installing Textastic it made itself the default application for many code-related file types/extensions. I think this is terrible behavior. This overrides all the default applications that the user has set, possibly different applications set for different extensions. When I install a new application regardless of what it is I _never_ expect it to set itself as the default for any file type (obviously excluding applications that create their own file type). No other text editors on OS X seem to do this nor does the only other similar type of application I can think of, photo editors. I believe this behavior should be removed and allow the user to deal with setting Textastic as the default applications for the extensions they choose.


Answer

Will be fixed in v1.1.
