Please restore the outline drawing of the loading smiley because ever since it changed to a solid colour reloading threads to see new posts by swiping up has become lovely and broken in the 5500 page thread I read/inhabit Thank you

Sorry to bring this up again but I gave my wife my Android tablet so I'm using the iPad Pro more and I'm still consistently moving to the next page in a thread accidentally. I don't want to disable swipe for next page, but I think we'd talked about maybe it needing to be a bit more of a distance or something? Are there any plans in the near future to maybe implement something along those lines? I won't ask for an adjustable setting this time I promise.

Is the source code available anywhere? I would like to help out. I generally program in c/c++/python, but would like to learn a bit about swift and iOS development. I would tackle the twitter issues.

I made some others a while ago we could try implementing. I think the  and  work well in their current places (loading threads/loading thread lists.) I thought the tick when you add a bookmark could be replaced with an animating tick on the book icon. Removing a mark could have the cross on a book (currently does another tick I think.)Just previewing this post now and there's a blank screen for a second. Maybe one can go there? Top priority would probably be a satisfying animation for when you make a post. I'm always willing to add new app icons. Not all of smilies translate well though.

I don’t think you can do the tag auto-closing with just regexes. You need to work backwards to track matched pairs, so you’d have to reverse the string, do the search, manage an arbitrarily deep capture set, and generally befoul things. I loaned a friend my laptop, but I suspect a straight port of the old logic into Swift would be reasonable. Also, when replying to a PM, the text area doesn’t resize out of the way of the keyboard, so you end up with text and caret hidden underneath it. I bet that’s on the list somewhere.

I would do it the lazy, old fashion way personally: Get string length -> loop though string backwards until ] is found -> get the character after ] -> generate closing tag. Unless there’s a easier way to do so in swift.

You’re roughly describing how the ObjC I wrote before worked (though tags are more than one character, you don’t want to “close” [*] or look inside [code] tags, and other incursions of reality). The code (and test cases) will be in the GitHub history if you want to look at it.

So the twitter issue seems to be a bit more complicated than I want. Switching over to grabbing the latest widget.js doesn't help, it seems to still create a malformed video URL. Not sure where to go from here, as I am a lowly embedded Linux engineer that doesn't do the new fangeled twitters. Odly enough, if I create a page on my desktop with the exact same JS, it seems to work. So it might be a iOS thing?

pokeyman posted:Any screens that just stay blank while loading are bugs, we should fix those (custom animation or not). Oh yeah that's a cool idea. So you mean like if you hit the Post Settings button in the lower left the circular switches would swap places or something? At the moment those bottom corner buttons (and the ... button) are obscured a bit by the 'tab' of the bubble that appears. I feel like that interface needs to be updated a bit - like maybe the background could dim more and blur out to emphasise the new window in the foreground. At the same time the button pressed could remain at full brightness and animate to its active state. Could also remove that little tab on the bubble. spanky the dolphin fucked around with this message at 19:50 on Jul 26, 2018 |
