Install Workflow...

This workflow contains at least one Python script. Only use it if you trust the person who shared this with you, and if you know exactly what it does.

I understand, install the workflow!

This is a workflow for Editorial, a Markdown and plain text editor for iOS. To download it, you need to view this page on a device that has the app installed.

Description: Monday September 15, 2014 3:5455 AM

This workflow uses a Custom UI to make bookmark drop-down menus easier to create.

List items are stored in a variable outside of the Custom UI action, and fill a tableView inside of the Custom UI action.

However, resulting actions for the selected menu item can be created outside of the Custom UI action.

I have bundled a few of my workflows as an example.

Menus can be saved to the bookmark bar for drop-down access.
