Problem with two-way sync on firefox and neovim #294

Closed ronakmsoni closed 9 months ago

ronakmsoni commented 9 months ago

Basically the same as #154 but three years later: problems with two-way sync in overleaf.com. The editor is able to receive the text with no problems, but my edits don't show up in overleaf.

I tried the following combinations:

Browser Text editor Two-Way sync Works?
Firefox SublimeText Yes, unless I have used the actualvim plugin since starting the editor
Firefox NeoVim No
Safari NeoVim Yes

Happy to try other combinations if developers want me to.

The recreate: open overleaf, start ghostext, type stuff and see if it appears in overleaf. I'm on an M1 mac, running MacOS12.

I'm confused by your support table, not sure why it would work in Safari but not Firefox.

Have you seen this? Particularly the video demo: https://github.com/fregante/GhostText/pull/285

Can you try Chrome? Keep in mind that I didn't write the NeoVim plugin so I can't help you with it.

Sorry for wasting your time, but it's working now. I had already granted iframes access, but I must have messed something up cos i was trying a bunch of different stuff in quick succession.
