Thanks, Erne -- that's a great code snippet. Please consider
adding it to the feedback report (if you haven't already).
I imagine that st.Paragraph(i) is currently starting its search
from the beginning each time -- solving that could be tricky, as
caches can easily get outdated when you have mutable objects like
these. But, maybe a simple solution would be to add a new method,
st.Paragraphs, that returns all the paragraphs at once in an array.
Well, I have a similar code snippet retrieving StyleRuns instead of
Paragraphs
and it didn't show the same problems
though I admit that Paragraphs are likely to outnumber StyleRuns
several times in average text
(but who knows how creative can be an user :?), there seems to be
definitely something weird in the Paragraph retrieval routine.
Thanks for listening, Joe
Cool Runnings,
Erne.
