Custom themes

Corbin Hunter 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1
It would be nice to add custom themes, with GUI to select different colors for different syntax. e.g.

Variables: blue
ect, etc.

Line numbers bar and better syntax code colors

Pedro Nuno Silva 12 years ago 0
line numbers bar in different color of content background and a little bigger width give a better view of all code.

Option present in editors like tincta or texmate.

Excessive logging

I keep getting logging entries like:


23/3/13 3:13:13.155 PM Textastic[158]: setFileURL: file://localhost/Users/rcarmo... - isMainThread:1

23/3/13 3:13:13.161 PM Textastic[158]: readFromURL:file://localhost/Users/rcarmo...n ofType:public.json error: - isMainThread: 1

23/3/13 3:13:13.194 PM Textastic[158]: Menlo-Regular


Can these be switched off, please?

Answer

Will be fixed in v1.1.

Pressing tab on a blank line should match previous indentation level.

Alice Bevan-McGregor 11 years ago 0

Related to the "move to start of line" issue, if the current indentation level is less than the previous line's, but the line is otherwise empty (nothing but whitespace), the whitespace should be expanded to the same indentation level as the last line and the cursor moved to end of line.


I'm so specific about the mechanics because the above implementation would avoid the "there's a tab on the line, but your cursor is at the beginning and you press tab again" problem (which in most implementations would result in the cursor at the correct indentation level with an extra tab after it.)

Needs to have Export added to File menu

Ken Ray 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 2
Sometimes I need to take a Textastic document and open it in another text editor because of certain features found there that Textastic currently doesn't do (like column selection). Right now the only choice AFAIK is to copy and paste, and I was quite surprised to not see an Export option in the File menu.

Groups

It would be really nice if you will add a group section, to view to files side by side, like Sublime Text.

How to switch Auto Save off ?

Can i Play ? 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 11 years ago 3

I use your editor for developing Corona SDK games and noticed it auto saves frequently.


How do I switch that off ?


Trouble is the Corona simulator detects the file is changed and refreshes and sometimes I don't want it to, as I could be half way through something and then it starts complaining about errors.


I moved from Text Wrangler to your editor and that never auto saved.


Thanks,


Dave

Auto add extension based on selected Syntax

Michael Savich 11 years ago updated 11 years ago 9

When I go to save a document in Textastic, I feel it should default to the file extension of the language syntax I have selected. After all, if the user is writing in Python, 90% of the time they'll want to use .py right?

Not saving changes in Mac OSX

Devesh Khanal 11 years ago updated by Delmar Stockwell 5 years ago 11
I'm having a recent problem where I'm updating HTML, looking at the page in a browser just fine. Then suddenly changes i start making aren't showing up in the browser. When I close Textastic and re-open it, I notice that the recent changes (the ones I did NOT see in the browser) are gone from the text. However, this seems to fix the problem in that I'm now able to make more edits and they start showing up and autosaving again.
