Some needed features...

Jordan Arenstein 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1

This is a fabulous app, I'm loving it, and really enjoying the look and feel except for a few slight annoyances...

1. Windows, windows, and more windows:

When editing more than three files, screen space gets cramped way too quickly. I suggest a tabbed interface (+ swapping shortcuts)

2. Auto-complete is a hassle:

I strongly dislike the system of having to press the enter key to send auto-complete. I much prefer the using the tab key. Maybe could you add a setting to toggle it between enter and tab to not confuse other users?

3. I need my other half!:

It would be fabulous to be able to auto-complete pairs of braces and quotation marks!

But on the positive side, I love some of the features (Version history to be precise! Its really a pleasure to use, but maybe a bit difficult to navigate...)

Now I'm going "all in" to use it for my frontend development. But, when you have nothing else to do ;) I would really like to have fuzzy file search in the desktop version. :=)

Find replace text too tiny

Steve Lombardi 11 years ago updated by rlsx 3 years ago 4
I can't read it, and clicking in the right place to edit is way hard. 

Related, it would be nice if that panel was enlarge-able.

Option to disable iCloud

Dirk Boicourt 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 3

A option to disable the iCloud integration would be great. It could then open a new document straightaway when starting the app. This could also disable autosave, which makes problems when remote editing with Transmit, Forklift...

Just that, use the Apache syntax mode as the default for .htaccess files. :)

Editing a file and going to another app saves the file

Dan Eveland 12 years ago updated by Rune Gulbrandsøy 12 years ago 7

Love your apps. I have found a problem. If I open a file from an FTP client like Transmit (sending to Textastic) then change the file in Textastic, and go to another app, it automatically saves the file and triggers and upload. So, if I were changing a file, then needed to go to Google or something to lookup some syntax or whatever, the file in mid-edit is uploaded because it's automatically saved. This was bad when I was in the middle of change a configuration file for a website. I changed the database name my website used, then went to my database admin to to actually put the database there before I saved the configuration. Instead, the file was saved and my website went down because the configuration was no longer valid.

Why Textastic shows in "Open with" menus for image files?

Michał Jakubowski 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 1

As title says, why your app add itself to the "Open with" menu of image files? The don't have any code inside. It only clutters this menu.

Should not appropriate HTML files...

Rui Carmo 12 years ago updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 12 years ago 3

Textastic is now the default association for HTML files (instead of Safari), which is a pain - double-clicking on an HTML file now launches Textastic instead of Safari, which is understandable (and easy to revert) but unexpected.


I suggest this default association be removed from future versions.
