Hi,
I would like to replace all the text currently in the syntax editor with alternate text and have it undoable with one ctrl+z. What would be the best way to accomplish that?

Instead of using Document.Text (which will wipe out the undo history), use the Document.UndoableInsert method and pass the entire document range as the range to replace.

Thanks - worked perfectly. I saw undoableInsert while trying to figure this out - but to me 'Insert' signified only an addition of characters so I didn't investigate further.

As a side note, we've renamed those methods for v4.0 to be more clear. In v4.0 there will be AppendText, DeleteText, InsertText, and ReplaceText and all take the appropriate parameters for that sort of operation.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.0) was released 1 month ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
