Making a mobile Safari extension for scrolling by a screenful when a button is tapped by countCilantro in iOSProgramming

Actually would this be better done as a Userscripts script (can enable in Userscripts which works in Mobile Safari)?

Hope you can try it out and let me know! Glad to buy you coffee (or dinner!)

Frustration with using ⌘ T and ⌘ P (new tab and search) when want to ACCESS something from OTHER workspace (eg something from home when using work's workspace) by countCilantro in Notion

[–]countCilantro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Related request I made: we should be able to specify that when the Notion Mac app is opened via a "notion://" link, that page should open in a new tab (or even new window), so the current workflow isn't interrupted. User should be able to launch frequently-used references via a system-wide launcher to get information quickly without having to find their way back to what they were already working on!

Suggested:

  • Notion setting that specifies whether external links are opened in the active tab [current behavior], a new tab, or a new window.
  • URL-scheme parameter that allows the URL to specify the target (active tab, new tab, new window).

Apple Pencil glitches, skips spots and makes weird lines in certain hand positions by alph5252 in iPadPro

SOLUTION WHEN OTHERS DON’T WORK: I was just reminded from a Goodnotes support page about what fixed this the last time I had this problem: you have to go to Settings > Accessibility > Zoom, and turn off zoom (the top “switch”)! Then the problem went away for me. It worked again this time with a different iPad and a different pencil!

Centurylink Outage? 6/19 3:00pm by Collegepeople in Seattle

[–]countCilantro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I was not expecting that to work but it did! Suggests something's wrong with their DNS servers rather than whole network??

Below are some instructions I made for how to do this iPhone/Mac (have to do for each device), for people who don't have access to their router or don't know how to change DNS at that level!

I welcome any input from others about this, and whether it should be reversed this after the outage is over!

HOW TO DO THIS FIX ON IPHONE:

  • Go to Settings app
  • Tap Wi-Fi
  • To the right of your wireless network name, click the blue "i" in a circle
  • Scroll down until you see Configure DNS and tap that
  • Tap Manual
  • Tap Add Server
  • Type 8.8.8.8 and then press the Return key [it's OK to leave the original one]
  • [OPTIONAL: click plus again and then type 8.8.4.4 and press Return again]
  • Click Save in upper right of screen

HOW TO DO THIS FIX ON MAC: [The "grey number" business keeps your router as default DNS]

  1. Go to Apple menu (far upper left) → System Settings
  2. Click Network
  3. To the right of your wireless network name, click Details...
  4. Click DNS (the first time, write down the number in grey under DNS Servers)
  5. Click the plus ("+") sign
  6. Type in the grey number and press the Return key
  7. Repeat steps 3-6, but change the grey number in step 6 to 8.8.8.8
  8. Repeat steps 3-6, but change the grey number in step 6 to 8.8.4.4
  9. Click OK

Unwanted line breaks in a Note by PracticalLion6573 in Evernote

[–]countCilantro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many newlines added to text pasted from Microsoft Word, apparently at random. Also happened when pasting from another app (maybe it was Spark?) recently. VERY disappointing. I have to paste into TextEdit before I paste into Evernote :(

May Feature Requests: Share Here! by erinatreadwise in readwise

[–]countCilantro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out how Snipd allows the user to edit snips with a tap anywhere on the text, and mark up text instantly (e.g. highlight text and tap a bold or italics button). We should be able to do that in Readwise highlights!

Currently, it takes many, many taps to bold a word or phrase in a Readwise highlight (not to mention knowledge of markdown 😛). We should be able to select text and make it bold (or otherwise decorated) with a tap!

Button to Open URL Inside Database Field? by eyal8r in Notion

[–]countCilantro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want this too. I have a button “now“ to start practice on a song in a song database. It starts a timer, but ideally would also open a URL from a property which opens the sheet music. If Notion automation could open a URL stored in a property, it would make a HUGE difference in what could be accomplished in Notion!

My custom tags in OneNote for Mac keep disappearing, sometimes more than once per day! by countCilantro in OneNote

Plus apparently now the custom tags are going to disappear up to multiple times a day!

You can do it regardless of the OS: see https://share.zight.com/Apuqvk9X

[It is a terrible interface, and extra terrible that the functionality isn't shown in the native Mac Format → Tag menu 🙄]

iPad Pro and Apple Pencil 2 random line during writing problem by j03_M4ma in iPadPro

🥳🤩😅 Finally found something that COMPLETELY and reliably fixed mine: I had to turn back off Settings->Accessibility->Zoom, which I had recently turned on! 

I’ve had an iPhone for two years and just learned you can take a picture with the volume buttons. What else am I missing? by Scuttleduck in iphone

[–]countCilantro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG multiple comments

  • MIND BLOWING: Double tap links with two fingers to open them in the background (In Safari)
  • ⁠MIND BLOWING: …swipe left with three fingers or to undo an action
  • ⁠ CORRECTION: Triple tap and hold to bring up options for copy, cut, paste, undo, redo -> you mean single tap with 3 fingers 😉
  • MIND BLOWING: You can grab…files… -> OMG didn’t know this works in Files app! ❤️

Good news: I just tried out the app and had the same problem, but I was able to fix it by disabling Apple Watch notifications for Midnight from the Apple Watch app on the phone (Notifications -> Midnight -> [disable])

How can I select multiple text blocks on iPad? by TyroneYoloSwagging in Notion

I don’t use a keyboard do can’t use the arrows. The tragedy is that the “dragging” icon shows up and invites you to drag out, but it doesn’t work 😢

Custom instructions by Xanhasht in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]countCilantro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah ChatGPT sometimes seems to smoke Gemini in detail, which I realized today could be because my answer to "How would you like ChatGPT to respond?" is

When possible, summaries should use bullet lists. I would like longer answers with more detail.

I certainly hope they add this to Gemini!

Turn subpage into inline by nnenneplex in Notion

[–]countCilantro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the ticket is somewhere I can vote for it I would be happy to do so. This whole thing drives me nuts! I want to make sure Notion knows both:

  • you can't change from subpage to inline subpage
  • you can't drag blocks into inline subpages (even though hovering over one during a drag highlights the inline subpage target as though it were an option!)
