textfield and textarea

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Programming/textfield and textarea

Paulo(Posted 2005) [#1]
Hi,

I am able to right click a textfield and copy/paste, but not do the same on a textarea. This kinda makes textarea a bit useless for any text editing purposes.

Or am I doing something wrong here? If so what and how can I use the clipboard with it. I tried to incorporate some functions I found in the code archives, but this didnt make a difference.

Any help much appreciated.

Paulo

I forgot to add - it does work via CTRL V, CTRL C - so the ability is there.

Do you mean the pop up does not come up, or the popup window does come up and you click copy but it doesn't work?


Paulo(Posted 2005) [#4]
The popup does not come up - when you select some text in your Textarea, right click it - nothing happens. Simply change CreateTextArea to CreateTextField, and you can right click and do the usual - If someone knows how to make a TextField autowrap, this would be a workaround, but I'd really love to copy/paste in and out of a TextArea (as you would expect) :)

Seems to be more bugs in BlitzPlus than there are in an old ladies kitchen!

Actually I thought old ladies kept their kitchens pretty clean and make nice cakes!

It depends on the old lady :p I dont know, it just went with the sentence.

How about "more bugs than Windows" or is that just not really possible? or "Anteaters stomach" ... soz

I'd put it in to one of those new "Super Bug" catagories, probably 20,000,000 years old, released from underneath the Syberian snow cap - no known cures.

:D
