I would probably start by:

• copy-pasting the code to an editor which makes spaces and tabs visible,
• looking quickly for tab/space mixes, and then
• standardising consistently on one or the other.

This may well be a known or fixed issue – Editorial crashes/exits on out-of-range set_selection()

To reproduce:

• create an empty file

• run a python script workflow action like:

  #coding: utf-8
  import editor

  editor.set_selection(4,4) # out of range - buffer empty

Am I right in thinking that a Select from List interaction can only be achieved as a workflow action ?

(i.e. that I haven't failed to notice an equivalent function in Editorial's Python libraries ?)

thanks,

Thanks – that's helpful.

The problem is having to sandwich the 'Select from List' between two different Python modules when both populating the list from code and then using its output in further code – having to pass the state of various variables between two modules.

I am doing this mainly with a kind of JSON ping-pong in:

which does work, but I wanted to check that I wasn't getting into more complexity than is really needed :-)

I have personally switched off Settings → Check Spellings in Editorial,

but I agree that it would be very helpful for 1.1 to recognise the iOS → Settings → General → Language

distinction between British English and English

(It is well known that the Americans somehow contrived to skip the 19c – the 1840s in particular – and that while this has left them with pleasantly old-school manners, it has also left them with obviously 18c banknotes and spellings ... )

While editing a workflow, button at top right (next to 'Done') > Copy

Creating a new workflow will then offer a "workflow in clipboard" message,
and the option to base the new one on the copy

There's no hurry – this is already an unexpected feast.

( and the phrase 'in this update' sounds like welcome rain :-)

It looks really excellent.

( and my attention is caught by what might just be a disclosure triangle in the upper left corner ... )

Fantastic work ... and it has already transformed the value of the platform

Not sure of the context, and this workflow is probably overkill, but it throws up a menu allowing you to adjust the number of levels in an outline which have hash headers.
