Defect introduced with last ZOHO Creator Update ...
@ZOHO Creator Support:
With the latest changes made to ZOHO Creator ... Deluge Code Editor improvisation. syntax highlighting and line numbers added ... a defect has been introduced ... and needs to be fixed urgently.
While in Free-flow Scripting Mode, when a line of code is too long to fit in the designated text area, it no longer wraps to the next line ... instead, scrollbars are introduced ... but as soon as this happens, parts of the line (at the end) are no longer visible ... the vertical scrollbar blocks it ... so one is forced to type blindly !!!.
f.y.i. I am using FireFox v3.0.8 on a 1024 by 768 screen.
Also ... while not defects ...
a) the insertion point (blinking | character) is extremely thin and very light in color ... making it less productive to work than before ... by comparison, the insertion point here (while editing this forum post) is just right.
b) in spite of suggestions on this forum by at least two of us, there was no improvement for those that want to have the script editing start in Free Flow Scripting Mode ... either via a configuration value or by remembering the mode at last exit etc.
And while not a defect with the Text Editor ... editing HTML Views in Free-flow scripting can be a nightmare ... the line and column numbers reported in error messages are no where near where the error is ... and so the only way to determine the error is to add one little chunk/line of code and doing a Save Script until the error is re-reported ... this is a very primitive way to develop Applications ... blows away the concept of R.A.D !!!
