It would be nice if there was a way to deselect options until the program is closed, rather than for individual posts. </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/memoires-lost-appearing-blank-disaster#post-4189 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:44:04 +0000 mswade12 4189@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>I have had this app since 2010 and have made an update since then. I save each time I type a journal. Now I am trying to review some that I've written in the past months, and nothing but a blank page appears with the date and the time that the journal was first written. At the bottom bar it states "1 entry" but the IS NO entry. "Finder" has all of the journals that have appeared blank as 12MB. This is a disaster! Help please! Everything I've ever written in Memoire's I've saved. This is appearing for some but not all of my journals, but unfortunately the most important ones. HELP! </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/feature-request-function-key-assignment-to-switch-journals#post-4188 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:25:53 +0000 ChicagoDave 4188@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>Hi!</p> <p>I've been using Memoires for three weeks now. I like the easy-to-use, intuitive interface, and also how quickly it loads on my four-year-old MacBook (which will probably be replaced in the next year or two by a faster model). I also like the built-in sketch pad.</p> <p>Requests for future updates:<br /> (1) I'd like an easier way to switch between journals (files). It would be nice to be able to assign function-key combinations to do this. For example: Shift-Apple-M: Save and close current open journal file, and open my "Main" journal file. Shift-Apple-B: Open my "Backup" journal.<br /> (2) And it would also be nice if I could open a particular journal entry at a specific date with a keystroke combo. (For example, I might want to put all my recipes together in their own long entry, rather than spread them throughout the year.) Some folks might refer to this as a "bookmark". I think that it would be nice to have a function-key combos to do this, too. Example: Shift-Apple-R: Save and close current entry, and open my "Recipe" entry on January 1, 2012.<br /> (3) I'm hoping that you can implement (1) and (2) in a friendly and intuitive way. It would be nice if we could assign arbitrary key-strokes to function-key combos--that would give this feature more power and still be easy-to-learn. (I would rather not have to learn how to use special-purpose windows to assign function-key combos.)<br /> (4) I often need to review existing text entries and add many annotations in a contrasting font and/or color. This is difficult to do with the color-chooser as works now: If I choose another color, it prints in the new color only if I add text to the end of the existing entry. But I often add new text between existing words of the entry. In that case, it adds the new text in the color of the existing words.</p> <p>Thanks. </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/memoires-on-mac-os-x-105#post-4173 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 20:35:36 +0000 rinkeli 4173@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I'm still running Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

Really liked it.<br /> However, i changed the editor font and after a restart the application refused to open any file and crashed.</p> <p>The editor font was than empty. Trying to set one would result in no effect.<br /> In the settings i tried to restore all settings with no effect.<br /> Than i deleted the preference file - no success.</p> <p>Than i thought, maybe the developers are WRONGLY using the '~/Library/Application Support' directory to store some default values.<br /> Bingo! Deleted the Default file there and now it works again.</p> <p>This default dictionary should be in the app bundle and not in the app support folder.</p> <p>Here is the relevant part of the crash log:<br /> Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[__NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:]: attempt to insert nil value (key: NSFont)'</p> <p>I assume you load a font and want to insert it into a dictionary.<br /> Please check and handle this case like this:</p> <pre><code>// Declare font with nil so it is nil when creation fails NSFont *myFont = nil; myFont = [Createfont...]; // Check if font could be loaded or if it is nil if ( !myFont ) { myFont = [NSFont fontWithName:@&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot; size:14.0f]; } // Go on and use the font [dictionary setValue:myFont forKey:@&quot;NSFont&quot;];</code></pre> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/unwanted-non-breaking-spaces#post-4169 Sun, 25 Dec 2011 18:55:31 +0000 Ned 4169@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I see that for a number of years there has been a problem with non-breaking spaces being inserted into the code of the blog articles being written by BlogJet.</p> <p>Well it's still a problem.</p> <p>Week after week I write articles of 800-1000 characters and get about 50 &nbsp; per article.

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. I followed the instructions in the URL below but this didn’t work either.<br /> <a href="http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/images-in-wordpress#post-402" rel="nofollow">http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/images-in-wordpress#post-402</a><br /> Using Wordpress (direct upload) I get the red X where the image should be and the image is never uploaded to the site. I’ve also tried just using Wordpress and configured my FTP settings. The FTP settings are verified by BlogJet but the upload never happens. I get that same red X. On two occasions using the FTP method, I actually see that the image did upload to the server but is scrambled (see here: <a href="http://www.whwcblog.com/brix_small_small.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.whwcblog.com/brix_small_small.jpg</a> ). I’ve checked the source of the code being generated by BlogJet after publishing the post and I see that BlogJet is creating image sources off the root of the site. See scrambled image example above. Rather than reference the image in the /wp-content/uploads/2011/11/, its pointing to the root /. The only way I’m able to get an image to correctly display is if I use a URL of an image that already exists online. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The image uploading is the main reason we chose BlogJet and its killing me that it isn’t working. </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/feature-request-word-count#post-3880 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 19:53:27 +0000 christie327 3880@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I just bought Memoires today, love the clean look and design.

If you search for a word is should not only display a list of the journal entries, but highlight the search entry as well.</p> <p>Currently to see the highlighted instances you have to first do a quick search, and then go through, entry by entry, doing the Find option from the menu to see highlighted instances of whatever it is you're looking for. That should all be built into one search field.</p> <p>Exporting:<br /> When exporting to PDF the text should be aligned to the top of the page, not the middle. Extra text that flows over the page looks extremely awkward center justified. </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/glitch-on-fullscreen#post-3805 Tue, 28 Sep 2010 15:47:12 +0000 WebberFalcon 3805@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>I'm having a small issue with the software when I take the software into fullscreen on my new MacBook Pro. The software will make my entire screen black and nothing else. I have to invoke force quit to stop this. However, I have a tool that I can use to force my MPB to use only the intel chip or only the NVIDIA chip, and if I make it stay on one or the other, then it works just fine. It appears that the graphics switch is causing the application to freeze somehow. It's only when the system is set to Dynamic switching (the default) that this happens.</p> <p>BTW, if you're interested, the software is called gfxCardStatus, v 1.8.1</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/audio-files-intermittently-accessible#post-4134 Thu, 10 Nov 2011 14:14:53 +0000 Leo 4134@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>If I drag in an audio file as part of my entry, there are occasions when it is not 'seen' when I try to click on the play button. In fact no part of the rectangle containing: speaker; play; scroll; or tabs will work.</p> <p>Then for a reason I don't know, it just starts to work again. I can move away from the entry and return to find it may or may not work when I get back.</p> <p>Any thoughts please?</p> <p>Leo </p> http://forum.codingrobots.com/topic/markdownnote-code-blocks-and-markdown-files#post-4125 Sat, 15 Oct 2011 15:22:58 +0000 achingbrain 4125@http://forum.codingrobots.com/ <p>Just bought MarkdownNote to edit GitHub readme files and am loving the simplicity of it. Have noticed a couple of oddities though:</p> <p>1. Code blocks</p> <p>Code blocks appear in a monospaced font (good) but don't seem to respect line breaks in the preview panel (bad) - everything runs onto one line which then wraps.</p> <p>2. File renaming</p> <p>GitHub requires markdown files to be called README.markdown. MarkdownNote renames this as README.txt every time I save, which is a tad annoying. I have unchecked "Add ".txt" extension" in the MarkdownNote preference panel but it doesn't seem to have any effect. </p>
