Logging to troubleshoot WebDAV?

-10343 13 years ago in General • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago • 0

I'm having trouble connecting to my cubby.com via WebDAV (which works OK with other clients). 


I know WebDAV implementations have their vaguaries, and you're not going to be able to check compatibility with every server out there.


If WebDAV connections could be logged (perhaps via email, or to a folder accessible via the built-in WebDAV server), it might help to know who to follow up with (in this case, you or cubby.com).


Cheers.

How can I bring up the cursor navigation wheel?

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago • updated 14 years ago • 0 • 1 duplicate

There's a screenshot on the App Store showing a control to move the cursor and change text selection.

You can show the cursor navigation wheel by tapping on the editor with two fingers.

App did not respect setting for Location based services

Michael Staatz 13 years ago in iPad • updated 13 years ago • 5

Hi,


on iPad, when I start local preview of a file then the sign for localizing appears in the top.

When I start safari or other apps that have a local preview mode that would not happen.


Best,

Michael

file time cross check annd auto sysnc for dropbox

It's a pain to have to down load whole folders worth of code for just that are scattered through out. An auto update with a file time cross check would see to be a handily and frustration reliever

fit to page width, height doesn't work correctly on multi pages pdf.

Duc 14 years ago • updated 14 years ago • 2
If I zoom in on a particular pdf page, then hit fit to page width, last page of pdf appears leaving me to scroll back to previously viewed page. Happens 10 out of 10 times. Same thing happens with fit to page height. My pdf is a school book btw so it has like 900 pages.

Not refreshing / CSS, Javascript and Images are cached on iOS 5 / Preview doesn't get updated

Carlos M. Torres 13 years ago • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago • 5 • 1 duplicate
The iPad app was working with no problems. Now after the update to iOS5 it doesn't refresh to show the changes in the CSS. Am I the only one having this issue?

Thanks.

This is an issue in iOS 5. I will fix it in the next update.

This is fixed for Textastic 3.1.

How do I find the device id (UDID) of my iPad?

1. Connect your device to your computer and open iTunes.

2. Select your your device in iTunes. Select the Summary tab.

3. Click on the Serial Number black label. It doesn’t look like something you can click on, unfortunately, making this more of a “hidden feature”. Serial Number will turn into Identifier (UDID).

4. Unfortunately this is another non-intuitive step. After you see Identifier (UDID) displayed, copy it to your OS clipboard with Ctrl-C (Windows) or Command-C (Mac). And here’s the subtle trick…

Most people try to highlight the UDID - which is almost the universally recognized way to copy something - but for some reason Apple decided to make this unable to be selected. You can’t highlight it. Just hit Ctrl-C or Command-C on this screen and trust that it’s copied to your OS clipboard. Now open an email or a text editor and paste in the clipboard contents. You now have your iPhone device ID.

Paste sometimes adds 'invisible' chars

Fernando Madruga 13 years ago • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago • 8
(BTW: you DO need a better font here: this form is highly unusable on an iPad)

As for the problem, I've ran into an issue copying some text from a QuickGuide and 1st I though it was the guide to be blamed but then did some more tests and found out that it's Textastic's fault. I pasted the exact same clipboard contents to several different apps and transferred all those to my PC and the only text to exhibit problems was the one pasted in Textastic. Basically, I was pasting a short html snippet and after much digging I found that textastic was adding a 0xC2 char before SOME of the spaces. These would not show on Textastic but they would be stored on the file and break html rendering. I can send you some screenshots of this if you wish.

Just to clarify, his bug happens just by pasting: if I preview the file in Textastic it will immediately exhibit the bugged behaviour! I only transferred the file to my PC to better debug it so it was not a transfer problem. (Textastic doesn't have an hex view, does it?)
