In vanilla Flash I could get the current cursor position via the Selection class, but this doesn't not appear to be available in Flex 2. The extensibility of the RichTextEditor control is severely compromised if there is not a way to get the current cursor position (and dynamically update the text). I know this information is available in the control since it is able to insert BOLD tags in the middle of the text.
Is there an API for this? If not can we get one? Something like, richTextEditor.textArea.currentIndex would be valuable. ~harris --- In [email protected], "Harris Reynolds" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Is there a way to find the current position of the cursor on a > RichTextEditor control?
