How do you enter a tab character in the test string without losing focus of the text field?
When I start typing the regex, the cheatsheet gets pushed below the visible part of the page as the "explanation" section expands itself. It would be nice if the cheat sheet remained next to the regex field as I typed in the regex.
- Lindrian 13y agoYou cant insert a tab character (yet). Ill fix that. Hmm, you could perhaps minimize the fields you dont need while writing it? Use the [-] buttons
- pgroves 13y agoI could minimize some of the fields, but the larger point I should have made is that when I was typing the regex the first time, I was looking at the cheat sheet. The workflow I found myself fall into was: 1. Enter the test string. 2. Look at the cheat sheet and type into the regex field. 3. Look at the matches and test field to see if it was correct. 4. If incorrect, look at the explanation. 5. Go back to (2) So for me, the default layout didn't handle my step (2) very well. I'm not saying that's the workflow you should optimize the UX for, but it's what mine was.
- Lindrian 13y agoYou're right, I'll look into a smart solution for this. Thanks for pointing it out! I have a very large monitor, I rarely run into problems like these.
