n457 / uncolored Goto Github PK

I use uncolored to record my translations of classic poems, and I really like the look of the editor, however there is an issue in my use case; when I press enter to include another line in the same stanza, it is double spaced. Preferably, there would be a way to add a new line without adding extra space, as if the editor were just wrapping down from the previous line being too long. Maybe alt+enter as the keybind?

Would be nice if we can change the font size of different levels of headings and text in paragraph.
Right now the size is a too small on my 1920x1080 13-inch screen, and it's pretty hard to tell the difference between different levels of heading.

It would be great to have support for creating tables, especially in markdown.

Currently, all content of a table is displayed as a single line when opening markdown documents and editing them is impossible at the moment.

Reopen closed documents, by closed order, via the main menu & via keyboard shortcuts : Ctrl+Shift+T / ⌘⇧T

We need to install this package in Fedora.
You have to specify the .x86_64 at the end, otherwise Fedora will install the .i686 version which will not work for Uncolored.

HIH

for example:

/opt/Uncolored/Uncolored somefile.html

If i write #Hello World it does show Header

electron ./app-dev/main-process.js

Hi! On a mac, many characters are typed with the ALT key. For example on my keyboard (Danish), the pound sign £ is typed by pressing ALT+3. It’s quite frustrating that the toolbar menu keeps popping up during typing. Will it be possible to choose another toolbar shortcut? CTRL would make more sense on macs.

The actual background color of the selected text/content is too light, which can be difficult to locate.

Hello, can we change UI css someway to increase the fonts, and may be make the theme more darker?
As of now they aren't easy on the eyes, both color wise and font size wise.

When creating a new empty document or closing a document via keyboard shortcuts, there is no visual indication on what happened and it can be confusing.

To prevent this confusion, a toast display system can be a good solution :

In the Save As dialog add a Document title text field :

The document title will appear as the Web browser tab title :

Hello,

Uncolored is fantastic, but is it possible to help you to translate it ?

Thanks 😃

When embedding a local image in a document one should be able to specify just the filename of the image without the need to specify path (including "./"). When specifiying a file without path Uncolored interprets that as this absolute path on my (Windows) machine:

file:///C:/Users/<user>/AppData/Local/Programs/Uncolored/0.10.2/resources/app/views/<filename>

Specifying only the filename without a path works on several other visual markdown editors.

Uncolored-v.0.10.2-win-x64-setup.exe sets off three detections on VirusTotal.com. Worth seeing if that can be eliminated.

On the current version of (Un)colored (0.7.2), nothing happens if we right-click on text (exept on links), because context menu is only available on some elements (document tabs, images, links, and emojis).

When right clicking on simple text, the context menu items will be Select all, Copy, Paste.

Markdown (including it's flavours) nor CommonMark support the features requested in #2 , #19 , #20 , and many others (e.g. image positioning, underlined text, verbatim blocks, wiki features, quizes, page breaks, slides, etc.).

To cleanly solve this issue, I would recommend supporting the DocOnce markup language instead/in_addition_to CommonMark/Markdown. DocOnce is the only existing markup language capable of producing sizeable output (HTML, etc.) as well as fixed-size outputs like PDF (research papers, etc.), books, LaTeX, quizes, slides, and potentially other outputs. DocOnce has already been used for producing all the mentioned outputs already for several years and is thus well-proven. And of course, DocOnce is as easy to write as CommonMark/Markdown.

Hi,

My suggestion is to provide the ability to scale to size all types of media be that images, video, web pages, etc. I don't know if this is already possible but I couldn't see how it can be done at present.

Great program by the way.

The default line spacing is double. I've looked around the menu, start guide, etc. and can't find out how to change it, did alt and looked there and nothing. Though in screen shots online there's single spacing. How do I change the line spacing?!

Hi,

I checked a current problem due to Electron. If i drag an image file on the Uncolored App, the window display the image and i can't return to the main app system. I have to quit and restart Uncolored. Do you think you can disable it or just display the image on the WYSIWYG editor on dragging ?

Uncolored doesn't seem to show bold text in MD documents. If I select a word and make it bold in Uncolored it is bold until I close it. When same document is opened again, it is not bold.

Just like this:
git clone my-repo

Lists with sub lists created by pressing tab.

• One
• Two
  • Thee
  1. Four
• Five

The paste system doesn't work everytime.
There is nothing wrong with the copy command.

enhancement : do not clear content that will be paste in raw <input type="text"> or <textarea> elements.

Heya! I found your editor and it's perfectly awesome! I am really happy using your editor, although there's something I do very frequently while writing documents, I often find myself copy-pasting screenshorts of graphs, computations, images, and so on. I find it very difficult and cumbersome to upload the images to a hosting site, and then copy the link and insert the image. Wouldn't it be nice if you can like just insert the image in my clipboard?

I feel like the solutions are:

• Using Data URIs
• Creating a separate folder containing document specific files and saving those files in the folder.

I feel like having this feature will greatly help me as well as anyone else using this app! I want to be able to open this app offline.

Cheers!

The font size of the content is quite small for me, is that possible to set the font size explicitly or zoom in the document?

Hi,

• Roboto font that you use, have no support to Latin Extended characters.
• Please don't use [Ctrl]+[Alt] shortcuts. More info: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20040329-00/?p=40003

:)

The scrollbar becomes far too small for use at high resolutions, and is personally a little too small anyways. Perhaps custom scollbar styling in the future so that people can manually account for this?

The application is a joy to use :) but what about the possibility of having a way to alternate from UI view mode to Markup view mode?

On OS X, if the user try to close the entire app via ⌘Q and has to confirm the closing of the app, only the window is closing, not the entire app as expected.

Hi,
Uncolored is really brilliant. I Checked and it supports writing rtl languages and doesn't mess with them. But unfortunately, we cannot change text direction to Right-to-Left. In Html output it'll be simple, I think. Just a line in css with direction:rtl; . I don't know any thing about markdown at depth but I see this project in python which is a Persian rtl markdown editor. I hope it'll not take much time and effort.
Other than rtl support I think the option to making texts center too will be useful.

Would it be difficult to make a version for Android? I don't know much about developing software, but I have read that adapting an application based on Electron to different platforms isn't too hard. Is this true?
There are many formatted text editors for Android, but nonw that I know of that is WYSIWYG like Uncolored and can save in markdown format, all of them edit the source code only, which is a PITA in the desktop, but even more on mobile devices with their tiny screens and their fake keyboards. I can't imagine me having to hit the target constantly to put the "*s", the "__s", etc in the right position with my thick fingers on a 5" screen. Code only MD editors in android should be prohibited, LOL.

Ok, now seriously, what do you think about porting Uncolored to Android?

Also, besides the normal dotations, do you admit "conditioned donations"? I don't know what's the precise name, but I mean that money put together by several persons that want the same feature so they put their money together and offer it to the developer on condition that the developer implements said feature.
I'd love to have "focus mode" in Uncolored. If there were a way to announce these kind of "paid feature requests" (which are really useful, because all of us get lost several times a daty and try to find our cursor in front of the pages we are typing) I would pay some money for it, and I think sevaral other users would too. In case you don't know what I'm talking about, please look at Ghostwriter's home page: https://wereturtle.github.io/ghostwriter/

Hi,

When I close all tabs, and I click on the cross icon of the first tab called Unnamed-1, the name change to Unnamed-2, and Unnamed-3 etc....

I tried to create a multilevel list but I can only make the first level items.
Usually, in some other editors, pressing tab key can "push" items from the first level to the second level.
But I can't find a way to do this.
How to make this happen?

Dropping external assets in the application open the asset in a new view (webpage) in the app, and triggers the closing event of the app.

Screenshot of the bug :

Hello, I have monitors in setup as following:

Unluckily uncolored centres to middle of all screens(see the black box on image above), and so, into area where even mouse can not reach...

A bit better habit is to centre to middle of "current" monitor. Where current is the one with mouse, or simply the default one. Only last fall back should be centre of all.

@n457 As I said in my first issue, I love Uncolored. However, to fully complete the UI, on Windows could you integrate the window controls into the UI?

Which do you think looks better? (The one on the left is Typora. )

The style on the left can be done by inserting frame: false, into your electron main.js and making close, minimize, and maximize window controls in the html.

It just looks much cleaner and "native".

• Open app folder button at the bottom of the About dialog
• Open settings folder button at the bottom of the Settings dialog

Write a special thanks mention to Thomas Guilleminot (@soucolline) for his contribution to the OS X version of (Un)colored (.icns multi-layered icon, .dmg background image, and compilation of the app) in the About dialog.

Despite being pretty beautiful it gets a bit tiring having to move the cursor to the top of the window just to see the menu. I think it would be interesting an option to enable viewing it/toggling it.

This options can be in the tab-bar or in the settings menu.

Disabled by default.
Will be available via the settings dialog

@n457 , I love Uncolored. Love the interface, and love the simplicity with power. However, I do a lot of math, and would love LaTex math support. Is this coming down the pipeline?

if we have a lot of text which is selected and we point cursor at it, it generates tooltip which cover all window.

The ability to open files via document type, set as default application and context menu "Open with" in Windows and Mac.

(Don't know if that's a word...)

When I have Uc on AlwaysOnTop mode, I obviously want to reduce it in size for taking notes, right? Well, when the window size is reduced, half of the screen is small buttons, and there is nowhere to grip the window to drag it around...

I know this would be a lot of work to fix, but implementing a form of responsive design for Uc would help quite a bit while taking notes on Uc.

Thanks.

Hi !

Since I'm using Solus as my main OS, I've thinked that it was a pity not having (Un)colored usable in my system. Nevertheless, Solus, as other OS, now support snap packages since it simplify the distribution/update process. I already know that you are currently working on a brand new version that is why I would love to see a snap package for the next version.

By the way, it's really easy to set up, I've already tried to build one and it work perfectly fine, you just have to modify the package.json as in the following example (just be sure to not write (Un)colored for the name because it's not supported by the snap system:
