Custom Bric Developers

I’ve made some changes and improvements to how custom Brics within Custom Brics are handled on export.

@Bill has requested that custom Brics within custom Brics no longer have their outer Bric html tag (which is converted to a div on export) included in the HTML of an exported site. I’ve tweaked exports so the HTML is a little different when Brics are placed within Brics. If you do this take care to check the exported HTML for your Bric.

No GPT-4 Turbo? :scream: You can compensate for it on Friday, given that betas are released at a pace quicker than their download speed. :joy:

Just replied to a closed ticket about a crash. I’ll keep looking at stuff.

Thanks,

I’ve downloaded the beta; in my case, it crashes when opening a project, freezes when starting a new project, and trying to use the class editor causes it to freeze, requiring me to force quit the program.

Might be a dip switch set wrong on the back of the old US Robotics modem. I know I had that problem when I brought mine without a manual, took 3 days of dialling a friend to get the combo right. :laughing:

On Catalina right?

Do you get any warnings when blocs is launched?

Or missing jumper :disguised_face:

Why is it impossible to set different padding for each breakpoint? Even though set correctly in the code editor in preview it inherits the setting from the XL Breakpoint.

The same modus operandi applies to FLEX where directions for smaller breakpoints are ignored.

Also, the code editor refuses to open randomly. The only way to solve this is to restart your computer.

To pre-answer your question:
No, the window does not disappear between screens. It is not opening. If not mistaken some other users reported the same not long ago.

When using type=“tel” as a custom attribute it resets itself to “undefined” after some minutes.
This happens in the latest stable version as well.

Regarding padding if you are setting it with a class rather than the inspectors options: Custom Bloc Padding – Blocs – User Documents

Apologies for the delay, especially if it pertains to Catalina.

Initially, the application opens smoothly, allowing you to work seamlessly. However, the issue arises when attempting to open the class editor; the program freezes, necessitating a force quit. Subsequently, upon attempting to open any project, the application consistently closes. The “crash” window persists, triggering a restart, and the cycle repeats. I will capture a screenshot or record a video shortly to illustrate the problem.

Do you think the main crash is coming from the clash editor on Catalina? Are you able to share a crash log?

similar here, every attempt to use the Class Manager under Catalina leads to a crash. I am back to 5.1.3 there are no problems. With 5.1.4 the Class Manager crashes. Maybe the hint helps, something has changed from 5.1.3 to 5.1.4.

Hi Jerry, I’m contacting you because I’m trying to use scroll locomotives in blocs, and as happened to you previously, I found an error when inserting data-scroll as a custom-attribute. I saw that you solved it with some JS. If you could be so kind as to help me I would really appreciate it, thank you

These UI issues in the layer tree in light mode seem to be ongoing. Happens to any element, where they change to white, and when on the lighter BG row, they are impossible to see.

Ok I think I know what it is creating that last crash fix will be out on Wednesday beta.

  • Fixed issue that could cause missing download files after export

Is this patch about missing images?

Still not seeing image in img folder.
Code in custom (regular) bric, ie. no parent/children relation & ‘remove-on-export’ is removed if user adds an image:

<img class="tpbgimg hide-in-blocs-edit-mode-only remove-on-export" src="#" alt="placeholder image" />

And export looks ok too:

<div><img class="tpbgimg " src="../img/headlights.jpg" alt="placeholder image"> ...

Thanks,
Bill
