Clear script in inline editor

SynapticBytes

I was just trying the online editor on my iPad. Seems the select functionality on the iPad does not work within the editor, and the delete key does not auto-repeat. So to clear away the example script before I could write my own, I had to manually press the backspace button on the iPad across the whole script.

Having a clear button for the code would be the simplest solution to avoid this problem I believe.

Thanks. Russell.

Hmm, that's disappointing. We're using the Ace code editor there, which I'd hope would work better than that. It's not like iPad is an obscure platform.

It's possible there have been fixes since we last updated our cope of Ace, though. I'll look into that. I'd much rather fix the selection problem than add a Clear button just to deal with this case.

OK. I am on iPadOS and things have been a bit glitchy, so wouldn't be surprised if they changed something. Editing web pages via iPad has always been hit or miss as to whether it works or not though.
