Add a "find all" option.

Cody Kochmann 10 years ago 0 1 duplicate
Add a "find all" to the highlighted text options to open the find and replace menu with the selected text already in place? 
Or else if the find menu is touched and there is selected text, automatically load that text to the search field.

Trigger auto-complete only when highlighted or specifically chosen

Bar Horesh 12 years ago in iPad updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 0

Because the auto complete feature is triggered by pressing the return key, what happens is that even if I don’t want to use a snippet and just go to a new line, the snippet is triggered. For example, when I write an else block, I like to have the braces under the else keyword, unlike the snippet which puts them right after the keyword ( in the same line)

When I try to take it down one line (by pressing the enter key when the cursor is right before the opening brace), the else if snippet is triggered, when I didn't even need it.


I would like the snippets to be triggered only when I specifically tap them (or press return on a physical keyboard when the snippet is highlighted. This would greatly improve my coding speed

Split Code Keyboard

When holding iPad in both hands, using the code keyboard is very difficult. Code keys should also split when using the iPad split keyboard.

Best IDE and Code Editor one can get on mobile

Mike Eenkhoorn 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 1
Since your code completion update, Textastic has become, by far, the best IDE one can by on any mobile platform, nearly as good as desktop IDEs like Aptana. Full firebug debugging, basically tabbed document browsing, really well implemented code completion, really well thought through keyboard manipulation and touch interface. Preview function, but also remote preview so you can even edit and debug php apps and such on a remote server.
I've literally tried ALL iOS code editing apps and ALL Android code editing apps, spending literally over $100 on code editing apps looking for something that is even remotely equal to a desktop experience and nothing even remotely approaches a desktop experience, except Textastic. 
I find I can literally sit at my arm chair and develop and debug full html5, web apps, both front end with html5, css3, js (all with firebug debugging, off line or online) and server side with php (maybe even firePHP could be implemented?). 
Truly an amazing product well worth the money.

File size amount is larger, does not upload

Diego Chuman 11 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 4 2 duplicates
Error uploading "public_html/all/functions/general.php": Transferred a partial file
Image 97
Answer
Unfortunately, the transition to 64-bit in the latest version of Textastic introduced a bug on 32-bit devices (i.e. everything but iPad Air, iPad mini Retina and iPhone 5s): on these devices, the file size is passed incorrectly to the FTP library.

In my tests, the file was uploaded correctly, you would just get the "partial upload" error message. You can ignore that.

This will be fixed in the next update. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.

Keyboard bug

Darkwater 13 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 13 years ago 0
When you make a new file that doesnt support peview (eg. js files) after being in preview mode, the keyboard is not shown.
Answer
Well, this is the same behaviour as when you just create a new file even when you are not in preview mode.

But, I've made it easier to bring up the keyboard in Textastic 3.0.

Work on remote files, consistent functions

Uli Bulli 13 years ago updated 13 years ago 2
Hello,

it would be wonderful to work direct on remote files. one thing that confused me first where the inconsistent functions of buttons depending if the files are located on the server or local.

the little pencil button lets you change name on server. local you could change name, copy the file or get a preview.

why not put all the functions to the button wether on server or not?
it would also be nice to delete a file by this button. now you have to mark the file and then select delete at the bottom.
its a great option to manage multiple files at a time but it would also be nice to delete single files by the stencil button.
