tedit development and design discussion
-
Hmm. I have an idea. The first version of read only mode used a file cache. That might have used the same folder for caching as the notes folder.
Now read only mode uses an in-memory cache and doesn't creaty any files.
If my guess is true, there should be a folder under "/home/phablet/.local/share/tedit.danfro" with qtwebengine in it. After deleting that e.g. in file manager you shoukd be fine. Just be careful not to delete your notes, only that subfolder.
-
@danfro Yes it works. Thanks for the quick response.
-
@danfro Is there a way to sort the files by name again? And how are the sorted by now?
-
@ma I am afraid, but I can't say right now why sorting is broken. I will investigate and try to fix that. For sure alphabetical order is easier to use.
Using the search is likely the best option to get along for the moment.
-
@danfro Okay, thanks.
-
@danfro I hadn't even paid attention to the broken sorting mode ! Perhaps this is an opportunity to implement different sorting modes internal to tedit or for tedit to conform to the sorting mode defined for Files?
-
@domubpkm you are not wrong here.
So (you and others): how many files do you have in tedit? Thinking about performance. Sorting in qml is likely easier but c++ is more performant for larger number of files?
a) less than 100 files
b) 100 to 500 files
c) 500 to 1000 files
d) 1000+ files -
@danfro a is my answer
-
@danfro b) This suggests that having a file count indicator might be good too
-
@domubpkm like the already existing text at the top of the file list saying how many files where found?
-
@danfro It already exists! A simple light bolding will suffice!
-
@domubpkm not that simple. Either we use html tags withing the text, which makes it cloggy for translations (I generally try to avoid that for this reason) or splitting up the text into two separate labels, then loosing context for translation, because its two separate strings.
I would not make the whole text bold.
Since the number is a %1 placeholder, only "bolding" that by making it <b>%1</b> might be the least bad regarding translations. Still not ideal. -
@danfro I was not enough accurate : indeed i spoke of the number only : a little more in bold (maybe).
-
I use less then 100 files.
