Ace Code Editor for MODX Revolution - Support Thread

It's a nice addition and works fine here with latest MODX. But it breaks "It's all Text" plugin in Firefox. And I need that for serious programming with Sublime Text.

/E

For serious programming you should not use Manager at all (I mean code writing). Try ElementHelper (I didn't try it)
You might be interested in silentworks user work - he works on Twig integration. You can find him on Twitter.

What solution do you offer? Ace is not a textarea, it's just a div.

I've used Ace with It's All Text; in fact the Ace developer was very prompt at fixing a bug with the It's All Text edit button in the default Ace theme. I'm not using either one at the moment though, so I can't check it on my own sites. I got a copy of PHPStorm the last time they had it half-price, and so I'm forcing myself to use it for everything, so I'm using a lot of static elements.

wrong highlight on this code

По логике ковычек подсветка вроде верная но не соответвует логике парсера.
В данном случае должно быть подсвечено голубым от сюда "notempty=`" до сюда "`]]"(последние скобки)

---попробую показать так----
[[+tv.tags:notempty=` | <span class="tags">Tags: [[!tolinks? &items=`[[+tv.tags]]` &tagKey=`tag` &target=`1`]]</span>`]]

(а вообще спасибо за компонент, уж очень полезный) [ed. note: anticler last edited this post 13 years, 6 months ago.]

Any theme will produce faulty highlighting in some special cases. Mostly it can't handle nested [[]] for example:

&showUnpublished=`[[!IsAuth? &groups=`[[!++FrontEndGroups]]`]]`

Such a line will skip the coloring of anything thats below (another property). Otherwise it's pretty good. But this is really useless if we can't fix this.

Thanks, Alex.

Is the Ace component currently ignoring the "which_editor" User setting?

Hi, did you get this figured out? I'm having the same problem.

anticler, yuka123, I fixed highlighting in a coming release (I'll publish it within a week). New higlighter is actually recursive.
bobwal, ace ignores wich_editor, because this is not a Rich Text Editor. This is just a textarea enhancer. Set use_editor to no to get Ace in resources. Or uncheck Use RTE checkbox on specific resources.

Thanks, got it working now. Also just discovered Ctrl+F11 fullscreen, now that's pretty awesome!

There's a .git file in:

and


I think these should not be there.

When you have a whole MODX site under git versioning, and try to: git add ., then git will complain about that file.
