| Hi Sciss, When a JSCTextView is first created, select from the language does not hilight in the view. But clicking on the window once makes everything work... Try ( var win; win = JSCWindow.new; t = JSCTextView( win, win.view.bounds.insetBy( 4, 4 )) .resize_( 5 ) .hasVerticalScroller_( true ) .autohidesScrollers_( true ) .string_("adsf;ajhdslfhwae uhaiush dsuaefw") .focus( true ); win.front; ) t.select(0, 20); t.selectedString; // Now click on the window and come back and do it again.... t.select(0, 20); t.selectedString; RJK |
