Many, many changes from Chris:
Fixed a bug in the code that interprets 'wide' characters (e.g. TAB), which caused the character at the caret position to be returned as ASCII 0. This manifested as incorrect Shift-Left/Right (skip word) behaviour, and almost certainly dates from version 0.58.
Fixed TextArea left-margin selection redraw bug when using system font.
Now shows hourglass during TextArea file operations that take more than 1/3 second.
Added large amount of extra debugging output.
Tentative implementation of double/triple/quadruple mouse SELECT clicks to select word/line/all in a TextArea, and multiple ADJUST clicks to extend a selection to end of word/line/text.
The standard C library isspace() function is now used in place of custom expressions when searching for start-of-word in a TextArea.
Extended auto-scroll of TextAreas during selection to correctly handle horizontal as well as vertical movement in the case where word wrap is not enabled.
Fixed the implementation of the TextArea_SetText method, which for some time had been completely broken.
Fixed bugs in the TextArea_GetSelection and TextArea_GetText methods, which were returning the string length in R5 rather than the number of bytes written.
Excluded various bits of apparently redundant code from TextArea.
Fixed a bug where ADJUST mouse clicks could be used to create a selection in a TextArea gadget that didn't have its AllowSelection flag set.
More low-level OS errors are now trapped and passed up to the client application, rather than the relevant TextArea methods just 'going wrong'. For example calling Gadget_MoveGadget may result in an error from Font_Converttopoints (used during re-calculation of the TA margin width).
Fixed strange jerky scrolling movement when dragging the 'caret end' of a TextArea selection on machines that do not support SWI Wimp_AutoScroll. |
| 0.73 (18 Feb 2004) |
Rationalised faded rendering of the icons to use new Wimp interface. |
| 0.74 (18 Feb 2004) |
Fix for font change on Text Area not affecting the scrollbars. |

| 0.77 (01 Mar 2004) (retagged) |
Minor fix for renamed TextArea_GetWindowId. |
| 0.77 (01 Mar 2004) |
More changes from Chris:
Multiple mouse clicks in a TextArea gadget will now cycle through the different stages of selection ad-infinitum, rather than just flickering subsequent to the fourth click.
Fixed a bug with the rendering of ScrollList and TextArea gadgets in ResEd.
More bugs fixed in the TextArea_GetSelection method, which behaved badly when no selection existed and also consistently overran the stated length of the client's buffer.
Fading a TextArea gadget now results in it giving up the input focus, which is analogous to what happens when a writable field is faded.
The TextArea gadget now ignores attempts to alter the generic 'faded' flag (bit 31) using the TextArea_SetState method; client applications should instead use Gadget_SetFlags to fade or unfade a TextArea.
The TextArea_SetBackground method has also been extended to allow any existing background sprite to be removed and to allow use of sprites from the the Wimp pool.
A TextArea background sprite can now be specified by name as an alternative to passing a sprite pointer.
TextArea_SetBackground now checks that the specified sprite is accessible and (unless a Wimp sprite is being used) also verifies the sprite area. Any subsequent failure to render the sprite will result in removal of the background.
Bits 10-16 of the TextArea state have been reserved for various flags that in future versions of TextGadgets will control the display attributes of any background sprite (e.g. alignment and tiling).
Added a new method TextArea_GetWindowID to return the object Id of the nested window used to implement a TextArea gadget.
Widespread changes in favour of using dedicated SWI veneers (where available) rather than generic calling methods such as _swix(). |
| 0.78 (02 Mar 2004) |
Added click data to ScrollingList selection events.
Fix for Scrolling List selected colours when faded. |
| 0.79 (06 Mar 2004) |
Unknown method numbers are now reported by the Scrollbar and TextArea gadgets.
Detection of repeat mouse clicks has been tightened up to exclude the possibility of false positives from rapid clicks in adjacent TextAreas.
Fixed a TextArea selection extension bug that manifested when the user double or triple clicked ADJUST beyond the end of the final word on a wrapped text line, and this caused the non-caret end of the selection to move.
Fixed a bug in the tab-parsing code which caused wrong jump-to-next-word behaviour when the caret position coincided with the start of a text line.
Internal changes in favour of accessing Font Manager SWIs through dedicated veneer functions in preference to using generic calling methods.
Continued review and improvement of internal propagation of OS errors. |
| 0.80 (06 Mar 2004) |
A TextArea gadget will now pass Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V and Ctrl-X keypresses on to the client application when neither 'Clipboard' (bit 6) nor 'KeyNotify' (bit 8) state flags are set.
The correct component Id is now filled in for Wimp mouse click events on a TextArea gadget; previously only the object Id was set to that of the parent window. |
| 0.81 (10 Mar 2004) |
Fixed a bug with using the TextArea_InsertText method to insert text immediately after a newline.
Removed some debugging text that had erroneously been left in the code that deals with Ctrl-U (delete line) key presses. |
| 0.82 (21 Mar 2004) |
TextArea gadgets now recognised a variety of common plain-text file types, rather than refusing to load anything not typed as &FFF/'Text'. However, selections are still saved with this file type.
Requests to load unrecognised file types (or when a TextArea is faded) are now rejected at an earlier stage to prevent unnecessary file access.
The TextArea gadget now fulfills its obligations to delete temporary files used for inter-application data transfer.
Tightened up TextArea's interpretation of the AllowSelection flag to prevent the user from altering the extent of a pre-existing selection when selections are not allowed.
Fixed a redraw bug in TextAreas that don't have AllowSave set, which was triggered by the user dragging SELECT within an existing selection. Users can now successfully start a new selection by this method; it is up to individual applications to decide whether this functionality is more valuable than drag and drop.
After the TextArea_SetText method had been called, the caret would be painted at the end of the text, yet the actual insert position (and origin of subsequent caret movement) was at the start of text. This bug has been fixed.
Fixed horizontal auto-scrolling in TextAreas that don't have word wrap enabled (this had been broken since it was first implemented in 0.72).
Fixed a TextArea bug where dragging SELECT to start a new selection at the same time as restoring the input focus resulted in a bad initial redraw and subsequent behaviour more akin to an ADJUST drag. (Note: it is no longer possible to restore the input focus without losing/changing any existing selection, unless AllowSave is set and you click SELECT on the selection itself.)
For completeness, all Font Manager SWIs are now accessed via strongly typed dedicated veneer functions rather than by generic calling methods. |
| 0.83 (27 Mar 2004) |
Fixed another TextArea bug concerning the case where the start of a drag coincides with restoration of the input focus, and hence other implications of the click are ignored. This time it is ADJUST drags where no selection exists (or not editable), and the fix is very similar to that already done for SELECT drags.
Calling the TextArea_SetSelection method no longer causes a TextArea gadget to claim the input focus - which it was doing even when the gadget in question was faded!
Calling TextArea_SetSelection (or pressing Ctrl-A) no longer results in the nested window being forceably scrolled so that the active ('caret') end of the selection is visible.
When an ADJUST drag of the non-active end of a selection finishes, the window no longer snaps back to reveal the active ('caret') end of the selection (which undid the effects of any auto-scroll during the drag).
Added a new TextArea key shortcut (Ctrl-Shift-Tab) to allow a user to swap which is the active (keyboard movable) end of a selection.
The TextArea_ReplaceText method will now silently swap the specified selection endpoints to ensure that start index >= end index. Previously the result of calling this method with reversed indices was undefined. |
| 0.84 (25 Apr 2004) |
Fixed a critical bug that often resulted in data aborts when the user attempted to insert text into a TextArea gadget by drag & drop or by pasting from the clipboard (unless at end of text, or replacing a selection).
Fixed a minor problem where calling the methods TextArea_InsertText and TextArea_ReplaceText would have the undesirable side effect of forceably scrolling the text to the current caret position (even in a display-only TextArea).
The order of selection indices returned by the TextArea_GetSelection method (i.e. which is the 'pivot' end) now corresponds to the interpretation used by TextArea_SetSelection. Thus calling one method with the indices from the other no longer reverses the 'direction' of a selection.
The code that allows reversed indices as parameters to the TextArea_ReplaceText method (introduced in the previous version of TextGadgets) has been fixed to deal with the possibility that the end index may be '-1' (meaning EOF). |
| 0.85 (25 Apr 2004) |
Added support for indented rows. |
|
| Release: Select 4 Preview |
|---|
| 0.86 (23 May 2004) |
The display attributes of a text area background sprite may now be controlled by configuring bits 10-14 of the gadget state (using TextArea_SetState). The alignment and tiling attributes of the sprite may be set for each dimension individually; for example you may have horizontal but not vertical tiling. The coordinate offsets supplied to TextArea_SetBackground still allow the position of the sprite to be fine-tuned, but this is now relative to the configured alignment (left/bottom, centred or right/top).
The TextArea_DataLoaded event is now generated upon pasting text from the clipboard into a text area, when ClipboardHolder delivers the data immediately from memory or file. Hitherto the client application would only be notified if the data transfer protocol were used.
Any of the known plain-text file types that may be dropped into a text area can now also be pasted from the global clipboard, rather than just clipboard contents of type 0xfff. |
