  • [Bug] Preview Not Refreshing After External Edit

    Completed

    I don't know if this is true of *.md files as well (I haven't tested it), but at least with *.html files, if I have an external editor (such as BBEdit) open on a given file and I make a change to t...

  • String Highlighting Quirk

    Completed

    As I'm typing along, I notice that my string highlighting changes as I type, depending on whether the last character of the string is a space or not. Note how the quoted string color changes from b...

  • BBEdit Cmd+E Functionality…

    Completed

    Initially I missed the Cmd+E "Edit in BBEdit" function from nvUltra. It wanted to "Edit Files Cmd+Shift+O" using VSCode. After a bit of fiddling around, it dawned on me that it was showing me my de...

  • Double-Quote Behavor

    Completed

    If I've written a piece of text, and then decide to go back and put quotes around it (as in going from quote to "quote"), I generally put my cursor before the first letter, and type the double-quot...

  • Initial Window Size

    Completed

    By default, upon first installation, the nvultra window seems like it takes up roughly 1/4 of the screen, centered. As a writer, I tend to like to work in a distraction-free environment with my edi...

  • Onboarding Suggestion

    Completed

    I really like the new onboarding screens — I think a really nice last onboarding step would be to open a dialog and ask the user to select a default folder for his or her notes, followed by autogen...
