Changing text Without Moving the Caret - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 18 years ago by Leif Zars

is it posible to change the text with out changeing the location of the selected line or the caret location?
The text i am inserting is in a Region "#Region " xxx " " and i don't want that region to expand when i add to it. can i determin if the region is expanded before i insert the text and if not close it when done programaticly?

Thanx

Hi Leif,

Our text modification methods like UndoableInsert take a retainSelection parameter in one of their overloads. If that is specified, it tries not to modify the selection.

Unfortunately that behavior is built into the document modification code and can't currently be altered.
