Respect indentation when wrapping text

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 0
Customer request:

"- when a line wraps after the defined number or characters per line the wrapped portion shows up against the left margin rather than at the tab
- when the line wraps as described above the tab does not inherit to the tab in the next line, it is flush left

The behaviour that I'm hoping to find with Textastic does occur in TextWranger (Mac OSX) as well as the Solaris Text Editing tool I used a few years back. "

4-way direction arrow keyset brought up with gesture

scott o. 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 8
Most frustrating part of doing coding on iOS is the clunky way you have to move the cursor around, it's by far the biggest bottleneck in terms of productivity. Often you just want to move i over one or two spaces, or up or down a line, and using the iOS method is just sheer pain.

It's a radical idea, but I'd love a simple gesture (two finger swipe, or something) to bring up a floating keyset with the 4 direction arrows. It would be sheer bliss when moving the cursor around, and it could be dismissed with the same gesture.

Add Command-D-like select word / select multiple next occurrences

Vassil Mladenov 9 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 9 years ago 1

Can you add a Command-D shortcut like in Atom / CoderPad / Sublime that selects the current word, then pressing it again selects the next occurrence of the word, and then you can type over n spots with n words selected?
