Selection lost - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 18 years ago by Richard Beyer - KBS Leipzig

After _editor.SelectedView.InsertSurroundingText(openingTag, closingTag);

the selection gets lost. How do I select the original text again to do another .InsertSurroundingText?

greetings
Richard

EDIT: found it after starting this thread ^^


int selectionstartingposition = _editor.SelectedView.Selection.FirstOffset;
int selectionlength = _editor.SelectedView.Selection.Length;
_editor.SelectedView.InsertSurroundingText(openingTag, closingTag);
_editor.SelectedView.Selection.SelectRange(selectionstartingposition+openingTag.Length,selectionlength);

Hi Richard,

We've also added a couple new overloads to InsertSurroundingText for v4.0. One of them lets you indicate that you want to reselect the inner contents.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.0) was released 2 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
