Alright I had to mod a core function but now the QEB is 100% working:
This little change just forces a deselection after a replacement takes
place rather than selecting the it again thus getting CM to actually sync
it.
Of course I don't think I could recommend this to anyone as is given that I
have no idea what it will break. ^-^;
I suspect making this into a viable add-on would be viable if I could
simply create a new function based on the core "replaceSelection"
function call it something like "replaceCMselection" move it into a modded
QE plugin and set it to use the new function rather than the core
function.... Issue being I can't get that to work... whenever I do the
selected text is just overwritten rather than wrapped liked it should be?
// Replace the current selection of a textarea or text input and scroll it
into view
function replaceSelection(e,text)
{
if(e.setSelectionRange) {
var oldpos = e.selectionStart;
var isRange = e.selectionEnd > e.selectionStart;
e.value = e.value.substr(0,e.selectionStart) + text +
e.value.substr(e.selectionEnd);
e.setSelectionRange(isRange ? oldpos : oldpos + text.length,oldpos +
text.length);
e.setSelectionRange( 0, 0, 0 );
var linecount = e.value.split("\n").length;
var thisline = e.value.substr(0,e.selectionStart).split("\n").length-1;
e.scrollTop = Math.floor((thisline - e.rows / 2) * e.scrollHeight /
linecount);
} else if(document.selection) {
var range = document.selection.createRange();
if(range.parentElement() == e) {
var isCollapsed = range.text == "";
range.text = text;
if(!isCollapsed) {
range.moveStart("character", -text.length);
range.select();
}
}
}
}
