Several bugs and suggestions (also I really like Drafft 2)

Hello!

First, please know that I REALLY LIKE Drafft 2 and that you have made SO MANY IMPROVEMENTS COMPARED TO DRAFFT 1!! If anyone reading this is on the fence about trying Drafft 2, I really encourage them to do so. I've just spend a few hours playing with it and I am really enjoying it. I think it's a great tool that's going to help me a lot, I love the new Dialogues editor with all the nodes, I love the GDD editor with markdown... I love the new gallery... and I really appreciate being grandfathered in as someone who bought a license for Drafft 1 last year. I am so glad that my modest support is part of what drove you to create Drafft 2. 

I would like to bring a couple of things to your attention:

  • There is now this community space on itch, and another one at community.drafft.dev. Which one is the one to prioritize?
  • I tried creating an account on community.drafft.dev, but I never received the activation email. I waited 1 hour, then clicked "send another email", then waited another half an hour. Then I clicked "change email address" and used another address, and it's been more than ten minutes now, but still no emails. I have checked my SPAM folders on both my inboxes.
  • Ctrl + Shift + : is not working on Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon, using French / AZERTY keyboard configuration. Instead it has the same effect as Ctrl + A (select all).
  • Ctrl + Shift + Pis not working either (same configuration). It doesn't have any effect.
  • Ctrl + Shift + Tabis not working either (same configuration). It doesn't have any effect.
  • The other shortcuts work as intended :) very practical!
  • Please consider adding the per-node contextual menu (Edit / Duplicate / Delete, the three vertical dots menu) to the floating Dialogue menu (the one with zoom in, zoom out, fit to view, etc.) It took me several minutes to find the Duplicate option, as my eyesight isn't the best and I hadn't even seen the edit icon and the three vertical dots at first.
  • The docs aren't up to date, I started writing all the things that weren't up to date but then I realised, you probably know that already and didn't have the time to work on the docs yet.

That's all I can think of for now! Thank you!

Hello Ether, thanks for the feedback and taking the time to reply!

  1. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, email should be working now! I’m fine with keeping this place on itch.io but as the store has moved away it feels a bit… wrong! Still testing the community platform (apache answer) so it might not be a good fit, or maybe yes :)

  2. Shortcuts: Strange! I’ll investigate, I think it might be related to the keyboard code for shift as seems like ctrl+p is working for you, have you tried left vs right shift?

  3. I think that is a good Idea! I will see how crowded it looks, but it should be visible on node selected only so it should be fine, added to the backlog!

  4. Docs: yes! I need to spend some time on docs. But for now I’m prioritizing bugs and hopefully bring the other editors from v1.

Thanks again !

Thank you for your really fast answer!

  1. I can confirm that I received the email this time and managed to edit my profile etc! I understand the hesitation-- wait and see then!
  2. Shortcuts: the results are the same with right shift as they are with left shift. 
  3. Thank you for considering it!!
  4. No worries! It's understandable to spend time on bugs first.

Good luck with all your upcoming hard work! You got this!

If you have time, could you try this example, and see if it works on your end? (or any shift key example in the page)

thanks!

I will be honest and admit that while I'm on Linux and all, I don't know what to do with what you sent me-- I could install it with NPM, but I don't know how to use it ^^; How do I run this?

No worries! If you can, just open the link and press shift+c and see if the content change to “MODAL CONTENT” image.png

Thank you!

Oh that's what they meant by "live editor", somehow I didn't understand ahah. 

Anyway, I get MODAL CONTENT with shift+c, whether I use the left shift or the right shift. I tried other shortcuts (such as replacing shift+c in the live editor by alt+c, shift+x, etc) and can confirm that I got MODAL CONTENT and issue list when expected.
