Hello,
I have modified TextEditor, the RB Tutorial project, by adding
three bevel buttons (toggled), for Left, Centered and Right alignment.
I am able to perform these alignments but when I save the document
and reopen it the alignments are all Left.
If Document<>Nil then
Document.SaveStyledEditField TextField
TextHasChanged=False
End if
Any suggestions?
A lot of the problems with alignment in Mac is backward compatibility
and use of the old WorldScript format. Many of these issues do not
exist in Windows Rb as it was designed to use rtf. Although Mac has
evolved to rtf in TextEdit Rb has not followed suit. Therefore
printing and saving aligned text with SaveStyledText routines will
not work.
There is a StyledText Class that may work but I haven't ever found
the time to figure out whether or not it actually works in saving and
printing on Mac. You might want to investigate that venue but, as
usual, the documentation is both limited and vague.
Regards,
Terry
