The 6th alpha release of the formatted text project is now available for download. This alpha adds a bunch of stuff including picture support, paragraph alignments, and enhancements to selecting and moving around in the text.
URL: http://www.truenorthsoftware.com/Realbasic/FormattedText.html What's new in this release... - Enhanced the selection algorithms. - The display contents are scrolled to keep caret visible when moving around. This is supported for drag-selection, arrow key selection, and arrow key movement. - Added basic picture support. You can't cut, paste, or resize the pictures yet. That functionality will be added in a future release. The picture object will become the base class for you to add custom items such as graphs, charts, or whatever you can think of. - You can set the paragraph alignment (left, center, and right) for selected paragraphs or the paragraph that contains the caret. I have not worked out every little nuance yet with right and center justification, but it works pretty good. - Added tags to all internal objects so that you can attach anything you like to an object. This will give you flexibility to perform extra processing as you see fit. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
