Please share any suggestions or ideas that you’d like to see implemented.

prettify code and/or autoindent closing brace
THe processing IDE has a nice ctrl-t "line everything up". If that's too much, I guess most of the "auto tabbing" editors I use know to unindent one when I type }...
26 votesI agree that both ideas would definitely improve the editor. I’ll take a look at which would be easier to implement, and put that on my list. Much room for improvement in the editor right now…

Very useful. I’m adding it to my list. May take a while, but it’s on the list.

I like the idea. I’m in the process of planning out a redesign of the lists of sketches in the Studio, and I’ll definitely keep this in mind as do that. Thanks!

make giving feedback to sketch authors easy and prominent
Looking for a way to share my compliments to the sketch authors/programmers but can't find it easily. If there is a way, then make it easy. If there isn't a way to leave comments, then provide one. thanks

Use cleaner URLs
Shorter URLs would be nice to send around. For example I find this quite long:
http://studio.sketchpad.cc/sp/pad/view/dZJkbh0jLQ/latest
Can't we have
http://sketchpad.cc/dZJkbh0jLQ instead? :)8 votesThanks for this suggestion. I may use an external URL shortener to do this. If/when I set this up, I’ll definitely let you know!

Server Reliabilty
The server's performance has been iffy during peak times, and need improvement before other features are focused on.
6 votesI agree. This has been a sore point. My apologies.
-
add ssl
studio.sketchpad doesn't have SSL enabled, which is precarious for authentication with the site. Please enable SSL
3 votesI’d certainly like to do this. I’m not yet clear on how much work will be required for this codebase.

ContextFree.js
What if sketchpad could offer another drawing language ? ContextFree.js
See http://azarask.in/projects/algorithm-ink for a demo.
3 votesThanks for the suggestion! I like the idea, and at some point may expand out to other visualization-oriented languages and packages. Raphaël ( http://raphaeljs.com/ ) might be another good candidate. For now, though, I’ll be sticking with Processing.

ios 5 contentEditable
IOS 5 supports contentEditable, yet the site blocks me off still. Am I wrong?
1 voteThanks for the heads-up on this one. The editor does, in fact, now work in iOS5, but there are two issues remaining. Apparently scrolling doesn’t work in these contenteditable regions, which is unfortunate. Once I have a chance to sort this out, I’ll stop redirecting traffic from MobileSafari.
Thanks! -
tab
when multiple lines are selected and you press tab, the lines are erased ! I most IDE it indents the lines to the right (shift tab would left indent)
1 voteThis is a limitation of the underlying Etherpad editor, which wasn’t really built for writing code. Code-specific editing functionality is currently limited, and this is an area that is ripe for improvement.

Make "My Sketches" under home tab editable
If I go to the "home" tab and click one of my sketches, it's read only. I have the option to clone and modify it, but not edit it myself. Confusing!
You should have it use the same URL that appear under the "your sketches" tab whenever the sketch owner is the same as the logged in user.
1 voteSorry about the confusion. There is an “Edit Sketch” button to the left of the title of any sketch that you created, but this could be more clear. If you aren’t seeing this button on a sketch that should have it, send me the URL and I can try to debug. Thanks!
