Known minor bugs and planned features

[ator-dev]

This is a simple list of things which I am thinking of working on, but which I do not feel deserve their own issues at the moment. Usually they arise from personal use, observations of others' usage, casual suggestions, or other issues.

If you would like to promote one of these to a new issue, please do so. Otherwise, general discussion lives in Discussions!

Highlighting Engine - PAINT #71

• Update when text alone is scrolled (scrollboxes e.g. Anthony356's "Lerp: ...", https://www.reddit.com/r/godot/comments/z3oc1y/quick_visualization_of_why_you_should_use_lerp/)
• Encountered an issue where range is set incorrectly, causing some flows to have no highlighting; may be more common after modification by CLASSIC (requires testing; still exists?)
• Backgrounds of children of a highlighting element can obscure highlights
• Various PAINT methods are inconsistent in behaviour and appearance

Highlighting Engine - CLASSIC

• Often misses occurrences in Reddit thread view and others (e.g. tab headers for thesaurus.com); fixed in PAINT?

Other

• Backend can miss new keywords added under high pressure; could modify how content communicates with background
• Keyboard (only?) selection of matching-options can eventually not update keyword (still broken?)
• Should be able to jump keywords quickly by scrolling on keyword button
• Return focus+selection after focusing toolbar by click (via mousedown event)
• Toolbar shortcuts should not accept additional modifiers (better model in future?)
• Popup button indicator for when extension is active on page
• MAJOR ISSUE: Keyword list creation has been seen to silently fail (normal conditions, entering "test", then "a", "b", then "github.com" at reasonable speed, no errors/warnings in output); this is probably due to problems with the entire keyword list system, but could be inflated by the caching storage system
• Match e.g. hyphens, , , ,, for in exact match
• Settings page rework
  • Allow more advanced/intuitive interfaces to settings (i.e. not direct mapping)
  • Allow non-synced settings (indicated?)
  • More readable and consistent UI, clearer saving behaviour, dark/light theme (?)
  • Tabs for advanced/specialised settings
• Review functionality of 'refresh' button; related settings, auto-refresh, dedicated shortcut?
• Baidu may delete the stylesheet, and sometimes requires refreshing to make the keywords appear
• Remove tabindex="0" from option menus when re-closed

For new issues

• Request for help: proper regex stemming algorithm

Workflow

• The extension packing script does not clean old files from the ZIP
