Live feed and presence

Poneglyph is collaborative — multiple users can edit the same project at once. The live feed shows you who else is connected and what they’re touching.

The live feed panel

Listed on the right side of the main window. Each connected user has:

A coloured dot (their nickname colour, configurable in File → Settings → General).
Their nickname.
A small status indicator showing where they’re focused.

Per-cell presence

When another user is editing a cell, you see a coloured outline around that cell — same colour as the user’s dot. This is the “presence adorner”. The cell isn’t locked; you can still edit it, but you’ll see their changes arrive in real time and they’ll see yours.

Live changes

Edits made by other users appear in your view almost instantly. The status bar’s latest log line briefly shows <User> updated <something> so you know things moved on their own. If a remote change conflicts with one you’re typing right now, the most recent commit wins; the previous value remains in the change history.

Going offline

If your network drops, Poneglyph keeps you working locally. The status bar turns yellow and the Offline icon appears. When you reconnect, your changes sync up via the offline queue and any conflicts are resolved cell-by-cell.
