Selection - exlcude lines or text ranges? - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Hi

I now have my first and last lines read only using the DocumentPreTextChanging event. Now I need to find a way to make them non selectable, is this possible? There doesn't seem to be any events triggered when the selection changes.

Regards

Vincent.

I see that the Selection class has an internal SelectionChanged event, any chance you could make this public? I'm guessing this event might make it possible for me to exclude the first and last lines from the selection text range.

Nevermind - don't know why I couldn't see the SelectionchangedEvent on the control before.. must be blind. I'll see if I can use that to do what I want.

Changing the selection in the SelectionChanged event works, at least to a degree. Is there a better way to do this (ie prevent lines from being selected in the first place?)

Hi Vincent,

Sorry there isn't a built-in way to prevent certain text ranges from being selected so what you are doing is probably the only way.
