Asynchronous suggestions not working/not documented
Hi there,
I'm very excited about the new "asynchronous suggestions" feature of Ubiquity - it's exactly what I need. However, I can't find any documentation for it, and after attempting to piece it together from the changelogs it doesn't seem to work - I call the callback with my suggestions but nothing shows up.
Is this functionality working, and if so, can we have some documentation please?
Thanks a lot!

Inappropriate?Apologies for the lack of documentation. However, you could check out the code at http://graynorton.com/ubiquity/freeba...
-
Inappropriate?In fact, we need to document a lot of things... But we are working on these.
-
Inappropriate?Are you working in the Command Editor? As I recall, async noun types weren't working in the CE for me -- I had to move my code out into external files. I'll try to verify this and write up a bug as needed.

Inappropriate?Hmm.. looks like a lot of things are messing up in the command editor.
-
Inappropriate?I've tried it both in the command editor and in a feed, and it didn't work either way :-(
-
Inappropriate?OK, it looks like async suggestions are working fine in the Command Editor after all -- not sure if I was running into a different problem when I first started exploring async suggestions, or if something has been fixed in the meantime.
In any case, I went ahead and added a section on async noun suggestions to the Ubiquity Command Author Tutorial:

Hope that helps!
