Disable wrapped line indentation?

Jonathan Poritsky 13 years ago updated by jin choung 11 years ago 6
Just got the app and I'm absolutely loving it.

I do little coding and would like to use the app mostly for writing. I love the Markdown syntax highlighting. I'm curious if it's possible to disable the indentation of wrapped lines. Am I missing how to do this, or will it perhaps be coming in a future update? Thank you.

Can't import images BUG!

TJZ Jayday 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 5
Hello,
first of all I want to thank the app developers of Textastic: Textastic is FANTASTIC. The app is wonderful for offline coding.
But now, here's the problem:

                                I've really liked the feature that lets you import photos.
                               I've used it ever since i bought the app, decorating my projects.
                               When I open the 'Create New File' window and click on the images tab,
                               it gives me a popup that says choose image or take photo. Thats normal, right?
                               It used to work like a charm to import pictures, but now, when I click choose
                                images, it just closes, withought openig the camera roll window.

So that means I cant't import photos anymore. I don't know what happened, it worked before.
Another thing: When I rapidly click on the image button and then at choose image, it sometimes (rarely) lets me import photos, but most of the time it just crashes the whole app.
It's really frustrating, because I reinstalled the app, which deleted my files :(, but it still didn't work.
This really is a major problem, I don't know if anyone else is getting this bug when importing, but it really limits Textastic's abilities. 

So, I'm asking if I'm doing something wrong (IT WORKED BEFORE!), or if it's just a temporary bug. 

I appreciate all answers, thanks.

Yes, unfortunately this is a bug in the latest iPad version of Textastic. It will be fixed in the next update. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Support for Chinese and Japanese characters

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago updated 14 years ago 2
Currently, Textastic only supports characters available in the font you choose in settings.

According to http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page the DejaVu font family supports the following scripts:

Latin (including European and African alphabets, IPA, ...), Greek (including polytonic), Cyrillic, Georgian.

This is the reason why currently, the app is not sold in China and Japan.

I'm not familiar with fonts supporting kanji, hiragana, katakana and so on.

So, is there something like a "monospaced" font for those characters? Does that even make sense with logographs?

I appreciate your help!
Version 2.0
Answer
The next version of Textastic supports displaying of Chinese and Japanese text. Actually, most unicode characters will be supported. This version also supports input using the Japanese and Chinese keyboards in iOS.

There's only one drawback: the drawing of characters not found in the font selected in the app's settings take significantly longer to draw because I have to use CoreText to draw the characters in the correct color. But for normal html pages or source code files with some Japanese sentences there won't be much difference.

FullHD AV Out

Myako Toudai 13 years ago updated 12 years ago 2
I have an HDMI Adapter and a stand. I always asked myself how it would be if textastic streams the file content in full hd to my external monitor while having the keyboard and big cursor keys and special keys on the iPad.
The ext. display as content display and the iPad as full featured keyboard with special keys over the whole screen.

Connect to an Oracle database, browse Oracle Stored Procedures (procedues/functions and packages) and edit them.. wow. Price? Easily quadruple it.

powershell syntax support

Mike Foley 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 9
Hi,
Could you add Powershell Syntax Highlighting support please? You can get an example from Notepad++.

http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/commun/userDefinedLang/NotepadPlusPlus_PowerShell.zip

There's also a VIM file for the highlighting.
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1327


I occasionally write stuff in Powershell and it would be really nice to be able to do that on my iPad! I'll be buying your app regardless and I thank you for considering it.
Answer
PowerShell support will be added in Textastic 2.2.
