Import a ZIP file

Simple ZIP files can be imported into Spck Editor. ZIP Archives offer a way to archive and export/import projects that does not rely on GIT. Archives offer a simple way to share small projects. To import a ZIP archive, follow the steps below:

1. Open the Projects menu tab, click on the + icon and select Import ZIP.
   

2. This should open up a system dialog to select a ZIP file depending on what system you are using. Select a ZIP file to import. Note: ZIP files do not store file encodings in the archive, it is assume that the file encoding is UTF-8, which might not be the case if the ZIP file was generated on an older Windows computer or using external tools. There is no way for the editor to detect what encoding the ZIP file is using, so other encodings may result in data corruption or an import error.

3. The import process should begin, and a new project name prompt will show before the project is imported. Enter a project name for the ZIP file.

Previewing HTML .html is the default when you click the Play ▷ button. By default, the project will preview the current HTML file (one being edited) before looking for any index.html in the project root. The priority of the HTML file to preview is as follows:

1. Current Editing HTML File
2. Default HTML File (See Setting Default Launch File)
3. Any .html in the project root
4. Any .html in subdirectories

To preview HTML files on mobile, click the Play ▷ button in the main view:

Preview HTML in Tablet Mode

In Tablet Mode (only for Tablets or wide-screen devices), a second preview option is available. This option does not launch a separate window for the preview, but instead offer a side-by-side preview next to the editor. Follow the steps below to launch side-by-side Preview.

1. Turn on Tablet Mode (if available) in the Settings menu tab. See Tablet Mode for more details.

2. There should now be a Side Preview icon next to the default Play icon. Click on the new icon to launch Side Preview.

   

3. The preview should open to the right. The size of the preview window can be adjusted by dragging the resize bar between the editor and the preview area.

   

Resize Preview Window

The size of the Preview window can be adjusted when in Tablet mode and using the side preview window. To adjust the preview window size, use the bar between the Editor and the Preview window.

Files

These are more advanced features that will be covered for Spck Editor. For the basics, please visit the section above on Creating a Project, Adding Files, and Previewing.

Cut/Paste Files

If you need to move files between folders within a project, then use the Cut & Paste feature. To Cut & Paste a file or folder, follow the steps below.

Back to Top

Moving File

To move files or folders within a project, you can use the Cut/Paste method described above. To move files outside of the project to another project, you can use the «Copy to…» feature and then deleting of the file after successfully copying.

Duplicate File

You can also duplicate files using the technique described above in Moving File. Simply use the Copy to feature on the same project to create a duplicate of the file or folder.

Editing

There are various editing features that are not covered in this section that can be found in the Editor Settings page. For example, switching to using real Tab characters or showing invisibles can be managed through the Editor settings.

This section covers some basics as well as some useful, but perhaps hard to find features of the editor such as Code Formatting, and jumping to the Next Error.

Arrow Keys

The arrow keys offer the useful way to navigate code. The arrow keys are part of the Touch keyboard that is available on mobile devices. On iOS the Touch keyboard placement is at the top of the screen to prevent being covered by the software keyboard.

The arrow keys also provide useful navigation function when using autocomplete. Simply use the the Up and Down arrows to change Autocomplete selection and use the Tab key to complete it.

Back to Top

The extra keyboard provides additional keys that may not be readily available on your mobile keyboard. This helps reduce the about of keyboard switching needed to code. There are different key configurations for HTML, CSS, JS and the keys shown will depend upon the file extension as well as the context. Below is an example showing how the extra keyboard switches between HTML, JS, CSS mode depending on the HTML tag.

The extra keyboard also provides a color selector when in CSS mode as well as an Emmet key when in HTML or in CSS modes. See Emmet Key for more details on Emmet.

Back to Top

Emmet Key

Emmet is a shorthand syntax to reduce typing when editing HTML or CSS files. Emmet tries to emulate CSS selector syntax, a brief guide on Emmet can be found here
https://docs.emmet.io/cheat-sheet/.

Copy/Paste

Copy and Pasting can be done in 2 ways. One way is to use the Touch Keyboard extra section. Click on the >> Key on the Touch Keyboard to access additional keys for Copy & Paste.

To select text, use a long press to begin selection. You can use the cursor keys provided with the selection to adjust the selection. An action bar will appear with keys to Cut and Paste.

Back to Top

Go to Next Error

From the extra section of the Touch keyboard (To access click on the >> Key) there is the useful feature to jump to the next syntax error in the file. To use this feature follow the steps below.

1. From the Touch Keyboard, click the + key to expand additional features.

2. Click Next Error to jump to the next syntax error that the editor finds.

Back to Top

Autoformat/Reformat Code

The extra menu in the Touch keyboard also provides the option to reformat the code using jsbeautify. This reformatting works for all HTML, CSS, JS files. See the example below on using this feature.

Back to Top

Viewing Syntax Errors

Within the line number gutter, there will be icons to show syntax errors, warnings, or bad practices. To access the information reported by the syntax validation feature, click on the icon to see the message. Please note that both the Autocomplete/Check Syntax and Line Number settings must be enabled to use this feature. See Editor Settings for more details.

Back to Top

Diff Editing

The diff editor is only available to projects using a GIT backed repository. For information on how to create a GIT repository, please visit the GIT Guide page.

Back to Top

Toggle Code Folding

When using the diff editor, parts of the code that are not changed will not be highlighted. For long sections of the code that are not changed and are not important for the purpose of comparing changes, they are hidden (folded) by default. To see the lines of code hidden, click on the «Toggle Fold» text above certain lines to expand and collapse the hidden code.

Back to Top

Reverting Edits

The diff editor can also be used to revert individual edits (line-by-line reverting). This is a useful feature to get rid of edits that caused some sort of error, or to undo any mistakes in the editing. To use this feature, click on the «Revert» text above changed lines to revert it back to the original.

You can use the Undo/Redo buttons located at the bottom of the diff editor to undo/redo any reverts done on the file.
