Compiler Import problem

Hi there,

I'm writing an app on my local Linux machine and importing the files to the compiler.  However, I can only do this once and importing over the top doesn't have the required effect of overwriting what is currently there.  I get a permissions error.

Could you either update this so that it is possible or provide a mechanism to delete all the files from within a project.

Cheers, Shareef.

Hi Shareef,

As you probably guessed, we don't really support an offline editing workflow yet.

However, as a workaround, you can export your project as a .zip, edit the files, and then zip it up again.You can then delete or rename your project in the compiler before importing your modified project.
