RE: [flexcoders] Re: Selection.setSelection Issue

Not sure about 2.0 but passing the explicit values with 1.5 did not make any difference. Anyone else had this issue?

Try passing the explicit values to your function:

setFBack(mytext.Selection.getBeginIndex(), mytext,Selection.getEndIndex())

function setFBack(begin:Number, end:Number){
}

OR (Flex 2??):
public var begin:Number;
etc..

Maybe one of these will help.

Good Luck

Seems like some event is changing the Selection after I set it.

certain events happen on other controls I can setFocus back to the
TextArea and set the selectedText back to where it was. When I do this
the highlighted text is not the same as the positions I submitted but
the indexes seem to get set to -1,-1. Anyone dealt with this before?
