  • [ ] Addition auto-next time
  • [ ] input extract on landscape mode
  • [ ] Extended Storage discovery
  • [ ] Disable Animations (recyclerview.. )
  • [ ] action done mode for editors (close dialog / hide keyboard)
  • [ ] training progressbar (entries finished / points)

Maybe this is not the right place here, or it is already configurable and I'm to stupid. Here is my wish for extending the configuration of the import format: In the custom format import, it is possible to use a single sign as the delimiter, but it is not possible to use a tab as the delimiter. I tried "\t" but I could only set one character.

I tried "\t" but I could only set one character.

Yes, \t is the standard in sourcecode, but this means the compiler is replacing it with the correct character. I would have to interpret your input, which I'm currently not doing. I'm not sure how to do this in a user friendly way, as we still have to enforce the one character limit.
What you can do, is to copy a tab character in your smartphone and paste it in the dialog.

a tab as the delimiter

Currently you can go with the TDF Preset. I hope it's fitting your format requirements.

The TDF Preset was the first thing I have tried. But the multi-translation delimiter doesn't match. In my case I need a "," as the multi-translation delimiter. So I tried the custom format. The copy / paste hint for the tab character was very good. Thanks! So I don't need to modify my CSV-lists.

Maybe you can use a drop down menu for delimiters. The custom format settings are much more than only set the delimiter. In most cases, only a few separators are required. And for users who need a special delimiter, one point in the drop down menu could be "other character", which opens the 1 character restricted input window.

drop down menu

That's an interesting approach I'll have to play around with.

@OzWT can you please open another issues for this ? That would prevent your idea from getting lost, as I have too many ideas, which I can't implement all at once. This ticket is for an application wide configuration dialog which I have in mind and would profit from more then two entries.
