Don't show the connection error while editing

Behrang Saeedzadeh 14 years ago • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago • 0
Sometimes Textastic shows the connection error dialog 3 times when I am editing/viewing a file that I've downloaded via FTP. I have also only setup one connection and oddly enough it's accessible. Please do not show this error message while a file is being edited.

As in renaming or moving files, make it possible to always view naming in auto fit mode instead of the length being truncated

"define" option

seventhson 13 years ago • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago • 0
Why isn't there the standard "define" option when selecting a word? Simple as it is, it's invaluable. Especially for people like me who use such software for language learning purpose.

Code Review Comments/Annotations

Daryl Robbins 12 years ago in iPad • 0

I tend to use my iPad more to consume content than to produce it. So, my main use case for buying Textastic was as a slick tool for reviewing code -- either as part of a formal code review or to gain an understanding of some third party component. In both of these cases, it would be nice to be able to annotate the code with my comments as I review.


For example:

I click on a line number and a dialog pops up to input a comment. Once I made a comment, there would be some sort of visual indicator telling me that there was a comment at that spot. Finally, when I was done my review session, I'd be able to collect my comments in some form. This could be as simple as creating a text file FileUnderReview.rb.comments with entries like:


Line 34: Some insightful comment.


(Or it could use a standardized file format instead if there is anything out there)

Show a message when "Open In..." fails

Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago • updated 14 years ago • 0
When there are no registered apps for a file, tapping on Open In ... simply does nothing.

It's not possible to check if a file type is registered before actually trying to show the list of registered applications, but it's possible to show an explanatory message when it fails.

In the next version, Textastic registers all supported file extensions in the system.

This way, the open in menu should show up on all supported files.

Adjustable line height

Alexander 9 years ago in General • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 2 years ago • 7 • 1 duplicate

Hi,


It would be nice if we could adjust the line height. The current default line height seems a bit cramped and it would ease reading text if we could increase the height a bit.


Thanks!

Love your App, thank you! I have one quibble, actually a bug with TextExpander/Textastic

dmahaffy 14 years ago • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago • 4

I have a snippet that crashes Textastic 100% of the time when triggered. It is a simple time-stamp:


 %@-1h%1I:%M %p

That should render this: (a space) 1:45 PM

I normally use "t" and then hit "space" to trigger it. What happens is that I hit "space" and Textastic registers the space, the space on the keypad stays pressed, then the app quits.

In other TextExpander apps, this is no problem. In fact, I've got that same snippet embedded in another snippet and it works fine. But to enter a simple time stamp = crash.

Any thoughts? Thanks...

[EDIT: I should note that I've tried changing the trigger from "t" to "time", etc., all attempts still result in an app crash]
