Ditto on poll voting = app crashing

Fix is coming, sorry voters

no need to rush if it means people are prevented for voting from eric clapton in the meantime tbh

Still having the bug where I type a bunch of stuff, then click into it to edit something, and it all disappears :(

(no doubt for the best, given the quality of my posts)

Yeah - the fix for that is with apple, will be in the 4.2 update as soon as they release it. Sorry!

stet, Sunday, 22 December 2019 18:05 (four years ago) link

Ah, thanks!

Having a new issue: if I type until I reach the bottom of the window, it doesn’t “scroll,” and I can no longer see what I’m typing (the text disappears beneath the keyboard).

Other than not be so long-winded, any fix for this? Thx!

Hate it when that happens, especially when I accidentally do the swipe & erase. Sometimes I can switch to landscape mode, although last time I tried that zing died.

This is me testing the fix for the scrolling issue:

6 ...
Yes, it works now! Sorry about that.

I’m ready for different color & typeface themes to become available as in-app purchases.

I’m also ready for being able to zoom in on images 😕

El Tomboto, Monday, 18 May 2020 03:24 (three years ago) link

speaking of images, long press on an inline image then “save to images” results in immediate crash

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Sunday, 31 May 2020 19:54 (three years ago) link

Ah, found it. It crashes because I haven't asked for permission to access your photo library. Better do that, then.

should be fixed now, ta

Add a link to the FAQ somewhere?

sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Monday, 10 August 2020 15:28 (three years ago) link

need one of those on the site too

stet, Tuesday, 11 August 2020 14:35 (three years ago) link

I am not entirely on board with zing now intuiting how to format text between slashes or text between asterisks

sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Thursday, 20 August 2020 18:34 (three years ago) link

My opinion is that displaying format according to bbcode is fine but automatically converting non-bbcode “formatting” is trying too hard

sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Thursday, 20 August 2020 18:38 (three years ago) link

stet, the bookmarks are still a bit out of order... am i correct in thinking they should be ordered by date post was first created? I'm regularly getting a few shuffling in at the bottom from 2020. Not a problem by any means but wondering what that means in terms of the code.

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 20 August 2020 18:41 (three years ago) link

example here... may have something to do with the phrase "2020" in the post?

so this is an ilx issue but it seems like youtube doesn't embed unless it's https... any reason not to alter to embed http links as well? I think this is a new thing.

This thread, when opened in Zing, generates a warning message that it contains corrupted messages: Bruce Springsteen - Classic or Dud ?

Omgggggg the quote option! Thank you so much!

YVW. Worth saying that you can also get quotes by hitting the "reply" arrow on an individual message, which also includes the message text. I don't think that was obvious to people.

It wasn’t?

I did this all the time already (and did just now) but the quote function is so useful for text pasted from elsewhere/further up!

scampish inquisition (gyac), Thursday, 28 January 2021 16:56 (three years ago) link

Yes. seconded.

Bumping the above – thx

Checking...
stet, full error msg for me is "There are some old or corrupted messages in this thread which Zing can't read."

please don’t fix it

Should be fixed, sorry!

Is there a known issue with Zing and bookmarking? I'm working my way through the Silicon Valley thread as I catch up on the show, and my slowly shifting bookmark works fine on a browser, returning to me chat about the episode I've just watched, but on Zing, it always takes me to the last 100 messages (starting Nov 4, 2019).

Alba, Monday, 2 August 2021 19:23 (two years ago) link

This has always been the Zing way. I have been living with it but you are right to complain.

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 2 August 2021 19:53 (two years ago) link

Yes, this is long-standing – I've made it work right on MacZing, but it hasn't made it to Tooch yet.

stet, Monday, 2 August 2021 20:36 (two years ago) link

Ah - thanks. Surprised I've not run into this before. I guess I don't make a habit of bookmarking months-old places in threads.

I’m frequently getting cookie preference windows now on links from iOS Zing that can’t be cleared - only way to view the link is to force it to open the link in Safari
