Will auto hyperlinks in notes be coming soon with the new editor features?
Excuse me for stealing a quote from another thread… [:O]
On Mac specifically, users will be getting some very long-desired features like auto reference detection, improved list support and editing, etc.
Does "will be" imply that this feature should NOT be working currently in the new beta?
Use my own words against me?! [;)]
I developed the core, cross-platform aspect of the new editor which fully supports reference detection. I will get a Mac client desktop dev to come answer your question specifically.
Thanks Alan. [:)]
Bible references are automatically hyperlinked as you type. Edit for clarity: By "will have", I mean that this behavior is shipping in the current beta.
This is not working for me. Would you like logs? (I may have to post later tonight).
The new notes editor will not auto-generate hyperlinks for existing references. However, you should find that normal URL references (e.g. "www.logos.com") and Bible references are automatically hyperlinked as you type.
Do I understand that to mean breaking the existing bible verse references on Windows is by design?
Also there may be situations where people paste copied text into notes, which doesn't invoke the auto-detect which seems to be tied to typing "space" after a reference - I strongly wish for a button "detect references"
I strongly wish for a button "detect references"
I strongly wish for clarity. so far this new editor won't drag and drop and now it won't pick up existing references ...
No.
There should be no reduction in functionality. However, bugs can (and do!) happen. I guess that's why they call it "beta". [;)]
