Night mode In File Transfer, etc. views
It’s great that dark themes can be used in the main editing view, but then when one of the white-background file management views is called up, it’s a bit like a stab to the eyes!
Please implement a night mode for the file management views. That will make a great app even better.
Thanks
keep javascript local storage
Pre version 6 lhe web engine local storage was persistent. On iOS it now resets when the app is closed
Pls add Shortcut to get back to edit mode from preview mode
opt+cmd+p is convinent for preview, but everytime after previewing is done, I had to used finger to tap "done" in order to get back to edit mode which is unefficient !
Mark and delete a range of lines
Need to mark a range in hugh text files to delete it. Should something like in vi: "<start>,<end>d". Maybe more comfortable ;
Password screen: keyboard disappears when rotating the screen
This is related and sort of not related at the same time. I have the latest version of Textastic 5 (both the iPad version and iPhone version). Every time I launch the app, with the password protection feature of Textastic enabled, I have to be super careful not to rotate the screen. If I accidentally rotate the screen (on either version) the keyboard will not pop up anymore. Having searched for the previous version on the app store (and not finding it), I have no clue how I am supposed to get this issue resolved (besides dishing out another $9.99 for it). I am not a happy customer.
Pretty print XML
provide an option to pretty print XML docs on open. Essential for working with structured data/texts.
Please add Fira Code font
Not sure you can support the glorious ligatures, but it's still great without them: https://github.com/tonsky/FiraCode
I cant count how many times I couldnt delete selected text
Using whole screen real estate and thanks to that only few scrolls I select text I wanna move/delete just to find out that there is no way to do it.
Selecting and deleting/moving text is basic operation we use milion times a day.
I found out that only way to do it is by ugly unintuitive hack.
So I need to doubletap to deselect this tediously selected text to show keyboard on half a screen for having cut command finally in selection menu.
But keyboard (that is absolutely not needed for select and cut)
will reduce already miniscule sceen to half. that is jus few lines of text being visible now. reducing previously simple and intuitive selection operation to absolute scrolling hell with milion taps needed to reach bottom of text.
And one bad tap timing will instead of scroll deselect hard obtained selection and you can start again.
deleting/cut text operation is essential for text editor.
When this operation is missing in text selection menu than its bug and serious usability hindrance.
Please fix it. I belive tousands will be eternaly gratefull and a lot of productivity time will not be wasted.
Thank you.

The next version of Textastic will allow cut and paste even when the keyboard is not up.
