1.1 Bugs?
-
I am not sure if this will catch on, but I thought it might be helpful to have a thread for bugs noticed in the new update. I have noticed at least 2 possible bugs so far.
- MMD tables only display in the preview if the global MMD setting is on. Tables do not display if MMD setting is off, even if the individual Tables setting is on.
- When viewing the documentation within the iPhone's web browser, tapping on the "copy" button at the top of a python code window returns an error "The URL can't be shown" and the code is not copied to the clipboard.
-
Found one bug so far.
The following syntax for images does not work for images in Dropbox (haven't tested in local since I never use it) when the MMD option is enabled in the "Settings -> Markdown -> HTML PREVIEW" section.

Works as expected when MMD is disabled.
-
Another bug. Images refered to in Dropbox do not print in either MMD or non-MMD mode. (See previous comment for code.)
-
Brand new purchaser, still finding my way. Not sure if this is a bug, but it seems to me that TextExpander snippets are not updating on iPhone. I made some changes, but the old snippet is still appearing, despite multiple "refreshes" of snippets on both TextExpander and in Editorial. Drafts uses the new version happily.
Amazing product, by the way.
-
Thanks all, I'll look into these.
-
I can't set keyboard shortcuts for my own workflows. External keyboard works fine. Built-in presets are working, too.
-
The image one would be pretty serious for me. I have a problem I'm finding very hard to troubleshoot with footnotes. If I can codify it I'll post.
-
When I open taskpaper documents, they don't display the taskpaper formatting. If I open settings and flip the checkboxes switch off then back on again, it usually works after that.
Peace,

I had some flickering in browser mode on iPhone last night. Only the Status bar and the bottom bar were doing it. Only noticed it the one time though.
-
Also, I guess it's a bug.mwell, to be honest, I have no idea what the heck this was. I was taking notes in my astronomy lab today and I wasn't typing at the time, but looked at my screen, with Editirial 1.1 open with a markdown file, and out of nowhere, in the current cursor position, three purple dots appeared, like an ellipses used to indicate "Loading..." In some apps, (they were about the size of the dots in the game, Dots). Then text appeared where the dots had been. I meant to get a screenshot, but it said something like "F. Don't have the change 5000. Bring" or very similar to that. In v1.0, I sometimes would hit the return key while outlining and I'd get a year automatically inserted. Well, a four digit number. Only a few times and I figured it was my iOS keyboard being dumb, but this was different. My iOS keyboard is pretty dumb, but still - as in it likes to put a question mark before a random word sometimes like ?this.
Anyways, any ideas on what could cause something like that without me even touching the keyboard? Am I just crazy maybe? Thanks.

The purple dots would indicate that you've triggered dictation somehow.

I have been enjoying Editorial 1.1 and the new ui module. I have run into a problem with the Segmented Control class. When I try to access the segments method in Segmented Control, I get a list of only the first segment. For example:
import ui def segment_changed(sender): index = sender.selected_index print sender.segments[index] view = ui.View() view.name = 'Demo' view.background_color = 'white' segmented_control = ui.SegmentedControl() segmented_control.name = 'segmentedcontrol1' segmented_control.segments = ('First','Second') segmented_control.action = segment_changed view.add_subview(segmented_control) view.present()
This will print out:
First First
If you select the first segment and then the second segment. This will continue for whatever the segment you press is. I tried renaming the segments, but it still only gives you the first segment. If you change the action method to:
def segment_changed(sender): print sender.segments
It will print out:
('First', 'First')
So I believe this to be a bug in the SegmentedControl class in the ui module.
@omz: Please let me know what you think is going on
@everyone else: Let me know if you get similar results and if you found a fix! -
It will print out:
('First', 'First')

This definitely looks like a bug. Thanks a lot, I'll look into it.
-
@omz that's interesting. I wasn't touching the device and even if I had activated that, nobody was speaking at the time, and certainly wouldn't have said anything close to what it typed. Weird. I wonder what could cause that and if it's really an issue in iOS and not Editorial. Thanks for the input. 1.1 is a beast! Love it. Thanks.
-
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere (it didn't seem to be):
The Extract Range action can handle negative values, but (at least on the iPhone version) the keyboard that pops up is the numeric one, so I can't input a negative number.
I actually just realized that what I really want is Remove Whitespace (I was trying to do 1:-1), but it still seems like a bug.
-
This is more of an user-interaction edge case than a bug:
When reading a long markdown document in Preview, there are relative links to text files, e.g.
[Another File](/reference-file.txt)
. Click the link to the relative file and it displays in preview as black monospaced plain text on white. In order to go 'back' to the originating preview you must go back to the editor, make a change, then return to Preview for the refreshed markdown preview of the initial document. (Note: a change must be made to revert the preview to the original document. Otherwise Preview is stuck on the relative file in plain-text mode.)Possible solution: a 'back' button that appears when you open a second document in preview. An added bonus: showing the referenced text file as a rendered preview.
-
Not sure this has been mentioned anywhere, but Editorial preview panel is not showing any document’s first line of text. Bug?
-
@pruppert, have you rebooted the entire ipad already? Something like that is hard to reproduce.
What is the first line? If it is in the format of metadata, then it wouldn't show (multimarkdown).
See if it shows up if you change options in your markdown HTML View settings.
-
Well, I guess this has happened before, but I wasn't doing anything major then.
I left the browser view to go into another app, and when I came back, it was still there for a few seconds, then Editorial closes and re-opens to a blank browser page. I was editing a forum post!
Major bug. It doesn't reload my page either.
By the way, any plans on adding tabs to the browser?
-
I made a workflow that changes the input of a web-view by selection of an option from a table view.
The workflow is here
It didn't crash at first, so I know it should work, but yet it keeps crashing. Could this be a bug?
I changed it from a table-view to three buttons, and now it workd. Seems like a bug in the table-view control.
