- Added Code, Strike, and Highlight formatting
- Make Clear Formatting also clear typing attributes
- Fixed bug where formatting was applied to wrong range
- More robust .bike file reading (no crashes!?)
This is still very much a work in progress. I still expect a few weeks before it will be ready for release. Some regressions in selection drawing this release.
I will be away next week, will still be checking forums/email, but probably not a lot of coding progress. Here’s a quick update on where rich text code stands:
-
I think feature set is fixed … though I might still delay to add support for links. Will decide on that later. Still lots of bugs and polish needed.
-
Most of this week was spent on (again!) stylesheet system. It’s now very convenient and efficient for me to specify styles in code. I still don’t have a text format though, so user configurable stylesheets are still a ways off.
-
Background color and strikethrough messed things up for a bit. I was handing them at text drawing layer (so they were drawn as images along with text). But then half way though I changed to draw them as full layers, so style marks can now be animated independent of text. I think this could be fun for strike thoughts and spelling marks… though not actually doing any of that yet. System in place though.
