Adornments focus

Hi Actipro,

I'm facing the same issue now - the caret shows up in both the syntax editor and the textbox control while my keyboard focus is in the textbox control and I'm typing within it. What can I do to not show the caret in syntax editor?

Hi Xinen,

When I do a test of having another SyntaxEditor control embedded in our upcoming intra-line adornments feature (not released yet as of this posting), I don't see two carets.  I only see the caret in the editor that has focus. 

Around 4/19/2017, we did a commit in the intra-line adornments branch for "Updated view focus checks to prevent caret blinking when focus is within an adornment."  I wonder if you have a preview build prior to that?

If you'd like us to check, please send a new simple project that shows it happening and we can look into it here.

Hi, 

I'm using your Adornments 6 - Code Review sample for Version 17.1.0651.

In the IntraTextNoteAdornmentManager.cs, instead of adding a button, I add a TextBox.

TextBox tb = new TextBox();
 
// Add the adornment to the layer
this.AdornmentLayer.AddAdornment(tb, location, tagRange.Tag.Key, null);

I run the program and press the button to add the TextBox instead of the original button. When I type in the textbox, the caret is still visible in the Syntax Editor. 

What should I do to not have the caret show up in Syntax Editor?

Hi Xinen,

Thanks, I just confirmed that the updates we did for intra-line adornments which will appear in v2017.2, have already changed how view focus is tracked and no dual carets show.
