Auto-correct bug

Noel Rappin 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 0
Auto correct appears to have a problem when the corrected text is a different length then the original text -- the autocorrect replacement leaves some of the original text in place. So "its" auto-corrected to "it's" becomes "iit's".
Answer
This is fixed for Textastic 2.1.

Writing Japanese........

hiro 14 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 14 years ago 3
Thank you for great app.

To view source code that has Japanese character with Textastic is all right. I enjoy it.
 But, to write Japanese is in trouble.

I delete Japanese string that is not determinate, and Textastic crash.
Not determinate string is following.

How to write Japanese with keyboard.
1. Type phrase's pronounce (and hiragana string is displayed. The string is not determinate.)
2. If the phrase consist of only hiragana, press return key (The string is determinate). Return 1.
3. Else if kanji is included in the word, type space key (select from some strings) and press return key (The string is determinate). Return 1.
Answer
Fixed problem for the next version.

Natural Cursor Positioning, Like a Trackpad

Casey Anderson 9 years ago in iPad updated by David Millar 7 years ago 1

This app is great except cursor positioning is painfully unrealistic for great productivity. It's because we are dealing with code where the cursor needs to be moved constantly and at precise locations.


The Codea app has MASTERED THIS. They simply provide two new keyboard keys in the center of the top row. You tap and hold the key, then move your finger and the cursor moves in parallel. It feels so natural as if I am using the trackpad on my MacBook Pro. One button is for regular movement and the other selects text. Productivity will improve 4 fold with this. I would use Codea instead but it's not a general purpose editor.

How to define new code completions?

Florian Lücke 12 years ago in General updated by Teddy Svoronos 9 years ago 9

I know there are examples for custom completion files, but somehow I just don't get it. I would really like code completion for LaTeX on my iPad, so I copied one of the example files, generated a new uuid on my MacBook using uuidgen and changed some stuff around, then uploaded the file to my iPad and restarted Textastic, but the code completion window won't show up. I feel like my main problem is the pattern in the context part of the file. Which kind of regex does Textastic use? Textmate uses Oniguruma Regular Expressions, does Textastic, too? Also, what happens if the regex matches/does not match?

I thought it should be fairly easy to create those files, but unfortunately the git repository has not been updated for almost a year and the file format is not documented :( Help is greatly apreciated!

A detailed example of creating bundle ...

Grégory Prince 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 3
I use and creates many DSL in my work and, as I like to use "Textastic" I would add my new syntaxes.

However, as I work on Windows (I know it's a shame ;-)), after several unsuccessful attempts, I searched (unsuccessfully to) a detailed example of creating a bundle withoutTextmate itself.

Do you know a detailed example or can you provide us one?

Thank you in advance.

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.

Cannot distinguish long file/directory names

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.
