WordLib - Document Import for Revolution

LiveCode 5.5 offers incredible new text styling features...if only you had a convenient rich text editor field to drop into your stacks for desktop and mobile apps and make all those features instantly available, right?

Help is here! FieldTrip will let your end users easily edit and style text in word-processor fashion, and all the features are as available and easy to access on mobile as they are on desktop. With a styling toolbar similar to your favorite word processor, your users can edit text conveniently and quickly.

This project is a collaboration between Maarten Koopmans and myself. The editor will be used in an iOS app right off the bat, so we'll make sure the Apple store likes it too. What we offer is the chance to easily and affordably take advantage of all the amazing text editing features of the new LiveCode on all platforms. What we need is a bit more funding to beef up the first release!

So to all lively LiveCoders, please catch a great price and support the effort by preordering this essential editing field; be part of a momentous occasion, be the very first (besides myself and Maarten) to try this spiffy new editor, have the coolest apps, and help us make FieldTrip the very best it can be.

It will be customizable and skinnable for a great look whatever the OS, with multiple instances, so that you can have one field in your interface or use several fields as part of a larger content layout. If you choose, your end users can move and resize fields too. This makes FieldTrip suitable for a wide range of purposes.

Major text formatting features of LiveCode, including advanced features introduced in 5.5, will be represented for styling in style. Some of the capabilities long supported by LiveCode but not quite convenient to access, such as inserting images and creating hyperlinks, will be easier than ever. And how about a tab bar? You'll want to use FieldTrip for your own rich text styling, as well as offering it to your end users!

The more preorders we get, the more features we can include in the first release. We need at least 50 orders, but we're hoping for a hundred or more. The special price for ordering now is $25 USD, and there are also options to pay a higher amount if you'd like to be a hero and help enrich text in apps all over the LiveCode world. (Of course, those who give more will have more influence on features.) We're using PayPal for maximum convenience anywhere in the world.

Along with FieldTrip for rich editing, WordLib 2.0 and WordOut 1.0 will be on the scene soon with support for LiveCode 5.5's field features, and will work together smoothly to bring more word processing power than ever to LiveCode apps on all platforms.
