Updated Demo

So you made this with the free version of NGUI?

Hi, well its compatible with any NGUI version pro or free

Is it compatible with iOS?

I have not tested this yet but yeah should be compatible

Will this work with NGUI 3.0?

Hey, the answer is definitely yes!.. I will submit the update soon.

Hi, will you be submitting the update soon? It’s been a few weeks since your last post. A status update would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, yes the update it will be released soon… there is only a small thing left to fix :slight_smile:

Thanks. I’m working on an in-house tool and everyone is waiting on me to integrate your asset. :slight_smile:

It’s been 3 weeks since you said you would be putting up the update … Help me out and define soon so I can pass that to my colleagues. Are you talking another week or three?

Sorry for the long wait but I’m waiting for the new NGUI 3.0.3 to come out which I suppose should be this week.

Hey this looks like exactly what I need, but I did notice a couple of bugs in the web demo… (using Firefox 24.0, Windows 7)

Ctrl+C doesn’t work for me, but Ctrl+V works fine.

Shift+Click selection was really wonky. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn’t. I couldn’t determine any pattern to the failures.

After typing, if you hit left, it moves two spaces left instead of one. Only seems to happen after typing, or after clicking to place caret after the line end.

End key doesn’t work, but Home key does.

“Select all” from the right-click menu only selects up to where the mouse is pointing in the text. This could be a nice feature, but it shouldn’t be called select all :slight_smile:

If those few bugs are sorted, it’ll be a definite buy from me.

NGUI 3.0.5 is out …

Yes sorry for the long wait, just been super busy but I’m still working on get this done ASAP.

Hi all, a new version supporting NGUI 3 is nearly done today so I will be submitting it to the asset store this weekend :slight_smile:

It’s been over 2 weeks since the date that you said the new version would be out. I recognize that you’re busy, and I want to be relaxed about this, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable as a paying customer to expect you to stick to the deadlines you set. Even a timely schedule update would be better than this.
