On-screen Trackpad

Ryan Bailey 9 years ago in iPad • 0

Similar to the implementation for the application, "Screens". You enable "trackpad mode", and the entire screen works as a touchpad. For instance, using only the bottom right edge of the screen you could move and manipulate the 'cursor' all of the way across the screen like you would on any other trackpad, and tapping on the screen would then register a "click". This prevents people from having to work to tap in the exact right spot on a line

Cursor Has Delay When Pressing Around

foreyez 9 years ago in iPhone • updated 9 years ago • 0

I've noticed that when I press around a document the cursor does not immediately go to its spot. There's about a 200ms delay.

1. Click somewhere on your document, the keyboard will be shown.

2. Now just press around in different areas of the document, you'll see there's a 200ms delay or so from the time that you press to the time that the cursor goes to that position.


This doesn't happen in iOS 'Notes' for example, where the cursor moves immediately as you press.

Textastic 6 für iPad öffnet keine Javascript (.js) Datei von Googledrive

blackroy 9c 9 years ago in iPad • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 9 years ago • 1

Liebe Community,


beim Versuch eine .js-Datei von GoogleDrive zu öffnen sind diese Dateien ausgegraut und lassen sich dementsprechend nicht öffnen. Txt-Dateien sind normal sichtbar und lassen sich auch öffnen. Ich habe den Editor aber gekauft um Javascript-Dateien zu öffnen und zu bearbeiten.


Der Entwickler wirbt explizit mit Javascript-Unterstützung.


Im manual habe ich auch keinen Hinweis gefunden.


Für einen Tip wäre ich sehr dankbar.


Viele Grüße

Persist undo past "download latest"

Tony Meyer 9 years ago in General • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 9 years ago • 1

99.9% of the time, I love having the warnings for up/download set to "always" not prompt. Then 1 time in 1000, I bump "download" instead of "upload", frantically hit "cancel", and am always too late (at 'best', I end up with a partial download), and say goodbye permanently to whatever I had done.


If the entire contents of the file could be put into the undo history as the 'previous step' to downloading, then in this situation I could just hit undo and all would be good. This would be incredibly useful in those terrible accidental touch situations.


(It would be nice if the entire undo history was also preserved, but just getting the previous version of the complete file would be enough).

(Uploading isn't such an issue, because there's nearly always an original copy of whatever was replaced, unlike on the iPad where Textastic generally has the only copy of whatever I've just written).

an example of code that works in textastic 5.3.1, but gives an error in the console in the 6.3 version

If a filename ends in .jags or .bugs, please use R syntax highlighting (instead of plain text).

Jonathan Bearak 9 years ago in General • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 9 years ago • 1

If a filename ends in .jags or .bugs, please use R syntax highlighting (instead of plain text). These files indicate Bayesian statistical models, and their syntax matches R syntax. No new programming to support this language is required -- just matching the extension to R syntax would be great! Thanks

SaveAs or file naming with version appended

Cecil Ward 9 years ago in General • updated 9 years ago • 2

I'd love a way of saving multiple versions of a document more easily and safely. Firstly, a no-overwrite lock would be good, so that all edits write to a new _copy_ of an existing document, to save me from myself so I don't overwrite existing work. Secondly either an easier SaveAs or an easier way of making a copy of a doc before I start editing, preferably by creating a writeable copy of a file that uses a filename that is version number suffixed or date suffixed, something like either

mydoc.txt;3 mydoc,txt;4 - (VAX/VMS-style), or

mydoc-2016-12-01.txt or

./2016-12-01/mydoc.txt

Open index.html when previewing a javascript file in browser

tobias teleman 9 years ago in General • 0

To minimize navigation it would be nice if the editor opened the closest html-file when previewing a javascript file.

Curl upload

Cecil Ward 9 years ago in iPad • updated 9 years ago • 3

i have a router that has an admin I/f that speaks http. On a *nix box, I could upload a config file (an XML file) to the device using the "curl" tool with suitable parameters. If I could create a saved settings upload object containing the saved parameters as for curl, I could upload a file that I have edited in textastic on my iPad. I could probably do http downloads in a similar fashion too. This would be a fantastic time-saver for me. It's basically a feature request for one more protocol, straight http, plus some decoration. Optional TLS on top would be nice too
