This is mainly an annoyance in large files (which I deal with frequently).

After not using the app for a while, and returning to it, it forgets what line I was viewing (usually in the high 1000's), and instead it reverts to viewing line 1.

It basically happens on a daily basis, and so I'm left flicking my phone 20 times to scroll back to the bottom of my file. :(

I keep my files in Working Copy and open them in Textastic using the Files dialog. However, the file must be created first in Working Copy.

I’d like to see the ability to create the new file directly from Textastic. IA Writer has this implemented. When it opens up the Files dialog, there is a “+” before the “Select” in the header, and you can create a new file in Working Copy without having to to into Working Copy at all. It would save the extra step of opening Working Copy to create an empty file.

No output on JavaScript console.  Preview in safari doesn’t do anything.

This project works under safari on my Mac.

intuitive software this not is

First I want to say I fully realise this suggestion is a bit on the crazy side, but here it goes:

I use my ipad more often to review code rather than to write it (for which I only use the ipad when I’m traveling). For this I use textastic just because the color scheme makes things easier for me, I usually have Notes open on the side a well in case I need to take notes

It would be great to have this feature included within Textastic, I can imagine writing comments into particular lines which are saved maybe as a reference to that particular line in that particular file?

Cheers!

why aren’t  the Local Files from Textastic availabile under On My iPad in Files? 

.MJS is used with Node to allow it to differentiate between CommonJS modules and ES modules.

Hi,

I would like to use Textastic everywhere for accessing markdown text files which I keep in iCloud Drive or in Dropbox, which are both accessible via Files.

However,I don’t want to have to launch textastic whenever I do this. I want to be able to store URLs referring to particular files in other apps, like OmniFocus, Notes, etc..

Does Textastic have an ability to generate a deep link that refers to a specific file that Textastic can edit through the Files system? If so, then I could just start using these Textastic URLs everywhere.

For. Some reason my image tags do not show on the preview page. It’s fine on every other computer.

Does Textastic support es6 modules? 

If so, I’m struggling to get it working in the app. 

Specifically, I’d like to keep my React js components in separate files and import them where needed. Please assist. 

Thanks.

Errol
