Command bar and Syntax Edit

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm posting here because previous posts in the Syntax Edit forum have been unanswered... for 6 weeks...

SyntaxEdit seems to have a problem with right-click and tabs. 

If the line contains 1 or more tab characters, a right-click can popup a commandbar context menu, but it also moves the insertion point to an incorrect position. Tabs seem to count as 1 chr.

1-Take the Syntax Edit sample. Add 2 lines:
Function
[tab]Function
2- Right-click at the end of the first line. Focus goes to the end as expected
3- Right-click at the end of the Second line. Focus goes to the ''t'' of Function. 

With this bug, context menus become useless for copy/paste

This is a major problem (right-click is CORE functionality, not like Skinning or other "beautify features") and not fixed in the latest 12.0.2. How can one provide such basic feature as context menu with this major bug !!! 

Even your sample app has this bug:

I hope this will at least be acknowledged and if SyntaxEdit is to be dropped, please have the decence to say so, so as not to waste my time. There are other such components available...
