tedit development and design discussion
-
@danfro Good idea to put the encrypted notes in another color. this will help a little. For the color to respect, why not orange in fact, or a purple which makes a slightly less significant contrast. Your idea of giving encrypted files a different color makes me think that in the future, encrypted and unencrypted files could, if desired, be grouped into two groups.
-
@domubpkm I actually had the idea of providing filters for encrypted/not encrypted. But not sure if that will work with searching. Yes, maybe grouping is another options that I can consider.

@domubpkm said in tedit development and design discussion:
or a purple
I thought about purple too. But there we would need two purples to provide good contrast in dark and bright theme. Orange works for both.
From first tests, purple looks actually better than orange in dark theme, but not good in bright theme.
I could provide a setting with no color/orange/purple of course. But not sure if I get that ready for this release. -
@danfro Actually purple does look better than orange. I just need to find the right purple or purples. No orange I think...
-
@danfro Another idea that could help in the search: the possibility of favorite files.
-
@domubpkm Yes, true. Not sure how easy that can be done. But I add it to my ideas list. Once I start working on that, its good to have several options to test.
-
@danfro artifact #1261354733 . low readability for 'required file name'. Otherwise everything seems ok to me.
-
@domubpkm Thanks for mentioning this. Although I saw it myself, I didn't look into it yet.
Although this really needs to be fixed in the toolkit itself since it should affect all buttons system wide, I tested an workaround which I think brings some improvement here. Not perfect, but not too much hacking involved.
-
@danfro Indeed, readability is slightly improved with both themes.
-

If I open the app and lock the phone, the app closes as soon as I unlock the phone again. Does anyone else have this problem?
-
@ma bug confirmed on Volla
-
@domubpkm confirmed on oneplus 5, focal, rc
-
@ma I can NOT confirm on my OP5T.
I open the app, press power button to lock. Then either press power button again or double tap to wake and unlock. Tedit is still open and doesn't close.
You don't press accidentally the new "exit" button in the top right corner maybe? Not sure where your power button is located. Just to rule that out.
-
@danfro hmm, I CAN confirm it on my Xperia X. But so far no idea why that happens. At least I have a device to test it.
-
@danfro Can't use screen recorder to show the bug because screen recorder crashes on start currently on volla
-
@domubpkm same on opo5
-
@danfro Strange thing, the problem is no longer there now. I cleared the cache of all apps, which I do regularly, then turned the smartphone off and on again. Something must have had an effect somewhere.
