BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Module Tweaks/Searching for a formatted text module
| ||
| Hi all, I'm searching for a formatted text module to use with maxgui. I just would like to read/write/show a rtf file, or a known simple formatted text file format like this. Does a such module exists ? (windows, os x & linux compatible) |
| ||
| Nothing ? Is there a better gadget than a "textarea" to do this by my own ? |

| Hi, 'BlitzMax Module Tweaks' is probably not the best avenue for your question, but short answer is no. You would have to do it yourself. RTF-format is Windows propriety format which probably hasn't made it that popular in the multiplatform scene, but you could use any markup format (html markup is one). MaxGUI textarea can handle rtf-content which you can see if you open wordpad and write some multicolored/funky text and copy/paste it to textarea. There is even windows only function in MSDN library to write and open rtf-files. -Henri |

| Thanks for your help. |

| Brucey has a WX module for Blitzmax, which implements its own windowing system with many different gadgets and such -- it's likely that you'll find an updated text area in there as well that does what you want. |

| Thanks, i will take a look. |
| ||
| I can't find it. |
| ||
| https://github.com/maxmods/ I believe that the wxRichTextCtrl hasn't been implemented fully yet so you might wanna ask Brucey about it. -Henri |
