Support for DefinitelyTyped typescript files

kylesandars 5 years ago 0

Is it possible to get support for DefinitelyTyped typescript files like the files you’d normally get with npm install -D @type/google-app-script that allow for custom code completion in typescript files?

Allow access to the iOS system fonts for use in code editor

ROP 5 years ago in General updated 5 years ago 6

There are numerous apps that can access the iOS system fonts. These include—for example—RSS readers to customize the display of articles to your own taste, or graphic apps to use the fonts for layouts. If we can already add our own themes, it would be really desirable if the font selection could be customized as well. 

Textastic only offers a very small selection of fonts. There are so many other fantastic fonts for programming. I can easily install these with iOS and use them in all apps that access the system fonts of iOS. I think it should be no problem to make this possible for Textastic as well. This would be very desirable and a long-cherished wish of mine (as a typographer). 

We sit in front of the screens for hours to code. So the working environment should be more customizable.

Continuous Undo/Redo

Davetheword 5 years ago in iPad 0

Is it possible to make undo/redo (primarily with keyboard, e.g. cmd+z) take action continuously, ergo if the cmd+z is held for a short while, it starts automatically stepping back in undo history, and vica versa?

At the moment if there’s a bigger chunk of work done that needs to be undone, cmd+z has to be pressed every time to step back one by one.

Thanks in advance!

Cursor jumps randomly

Davetheword 5 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 5 years ago 5

On IPad with folio keyboard the cursor randomly jumps across the whole document when pressing the up/down arrow keys. Haven’t managed to find any pattern in this behaviour, seems to be happening every now and then - but more often when selecting some text and using shift+arrow keys to jump between lines.

Let me know if I could provide anything more to help with this!

Answer

I could reproduce and find a workaround for this problem just yesterday. It will be fixed in the next update.

Syntax Bundle Not Loading (javascript-react.tmbundle)

akbuck667 5 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 5 years ago 1

I was following the manual on adding .tmbundle files for custom syntax highlighting, however, one bundle I tried to install isn’t loading into the application. Are there any methods or steps for users like me to debug this? I tried enabling the debug logs, but it looks like only the successful loading of bundles are logged when performing the “Reload Customizations” action.

The bundle in question is: https://github.com/jjeising/javascript-jsx.tmbundle

Notes: 

- I did find this bundle through online search- but based on my understanding, this bundle should be supported by Textastic.
- I am also assuming that there are currently no issues with this bundle. If there is, then I would expect to be able to see an error in Textastic’s debug logs.

- I have configured other syntax bundles in the application on the same device (at the same time as well), so there is no inaccuracy with my #Textastic directory.

Keyboard Shortcuts - [CMD]+[2é] does nothing on French AZERTY external keyboards

Maurice Zoliker 5 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 5 years ago 1

Dear Alexander,

I have found an issue with the Keyboard Shortcuts.

When I try to configure "Show Nth Tab" and press [CMD]+[1&], Textastic shows [CMD]+[&], which is good and works fine. Idem for [CMD]+[3"], showing [CMD]+["], which is good and works fine too.

But [CMD]+[2é] does nothing, making it impossible to access Tab number 2 with this natural shortcut.

For information, [CTRL]+[2é], [ALT]+[2é] and [SHIFT]+[2é] are doing nothing too.

Not sure whether this is an iOS or Textastic issue though.

I am using multiple AZERTY (French) external keyboards, and I can reproduce this issue with all those I have tried, so the keyboard itself does not seem to be the cause.

May I ask you to look into this?

Thanks a lot for all your valuable feedbacks.

Kind regards,

Maurice Zoliker

Mouse dragging selects text instead of moving screen

Maurice Zoliker 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 4

Dear Alexander,

I am using Textastic with a mouse since iOS now allows it. Not sure if this is the intended behavior but when I left clic and drag on the text, I would have expected the screen to move (like with my finger). Right now what happens is the text is selected, which feels a bit counter intuitive, at least to me.

Would it be possible to change this behavior, or is it locked by iOS? At least, if possible, an option would be really nice :-).

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Kind regards,

Maurice

Hide extended keyboard when hardware keyboard is connected

Maurice Zoliker 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 2

Dear Alexander,

I have a quick question: could you please tell me where is the option for hiding the extended keyboard when a hardware keyboard is connected?

I am pretty sure this option used to be there but I cannot figure out where it is!

If it has been removed, would it be possible to have it back?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Kind regards,

Maurice
