Replace selection

[dspa72]

Hi,

I would like to replace a manually selected text in rvedit leaving the selection.
Actually, I select the text, use InsertText to replace the text. But, in this way, I loose the selection


Hope I was clear ....

InsertText, like any other Insert*** methods introduced in TCustomRichViewEdit, deletes a selected fragment before the insertion.

So I am not sure that I understand you.

Ok, I try to explain better my problem (sorry for my poor english).

I have this

Sports cars are performance vehicles that provide driving satisfaction

I select with the mouse the words "performance vehicles"

Sports cars are performance vehicles that provide driving satisfaction

(underline means selected)

I want to replace the selected text with "stunning autos"
so I use

rv->InsertText("stunning autos",false);


the result is

Sports cars are stunning autos that provide driving satisfaction

but i would like to have

Sports cars are stunning autos that provide driving satisfaction

Hope this is more clear

  RVGetSelection(RichViewEdit1->TopLevelEditor, SelStart, SelLength);
  if (SelLength<0)
    SelStart -=SelLength;
  RichViewEdit1->InsertText("aaaaaaaaaa", false);
  SelStartNew = RVGetLinearCaretPos(RichViewEdit1->TopLevelEditor);
  RVSetSelection(RichViewEdit1->TopLevelEditor, SelStart, SelStartNew-SelStart);
