Select code Syntax - Markdown option only about boostnote-legacy

[facundomedica]

You need to start writing the language in it. What you are seeing are the suggestions for what is written in the textbox.

Sorry @facundomedica don't get it.
As you can see in the screenshot I've attached in my previous post, it is php code, but I don't see the PHP option in the syntax menu...

Thanks

It is not a dropdown menu, it's a textbox with suggestions. Select the text "markdown" and start writing PHP.

Hm. I think you need to read about markdown. You don't understand what is it. Also you can highlight your code using this:

<?
echo 'I am php snippet. Uh!'
?>

It's look like:

<?
echo 'I am php snippet. Uh!'
?>

@WinaZar I think he wants to use the PHP syntax in the entire note, so he has to follow what I wrote before. (Here is like a step by step)

@WinaZar I know markdown, but no way I'm gonna convert a php snippet to markdown just to see it nicely in the Boostnote app. I think it is not the purpose of it.

@facundomedica didn't work the step by step. Even by creating a new note. I select markdown, type PHP, etc. then press enter, start typing the note, save, etc. but no luck. When I click another note and return to the newly created, the only option still is markdown.

Thanks anyway

@kabeza I've checked it on Windows 10 just now. But, It works fine without any problem.
Could you give me a more information? If an error occurs, You can check it on devtool.
It can be opened by navigating menu, View->Toggle Developer Tools, or pressing Ctrl + Shift + I.

@Rokt33r I'm posting 2 screenshots with Chromium debug tools enabled (console). Lemme know if I should help with anything else

@kabeza
Sorry, It's a bug. I found the matching of syntax type is case-sensitive.
I'll fix it soon. Before It done, you can find it by php instead of PHP

Additional: This is a full list of available syntax.

Yes! you're right @Rokt33r
Tried with php and worked.

And about the full list of syntax... damn, that's a big list... maybe a comma separated list in readme would be enough I think

Thanks!

@kabeza
I think making UI like below screenshot would be great.
I agree with the syntax is too huge... I'll fix it soon.

Awesome @Rokt33r
I also agree, looks much better, and usable
