Hi Eric,

I Have a Two Edwins in One Container. One is a Rich Text Editor and The other a Normal Text Edtior.

The Rich Text Editor is Read Only. Now i am Displaying the RichText Editor all the While over the whole screen when no Key is Pressed.

But when a Key is Pressed bringing the Text Editor to Foreground and Showing it Just Below the Rich Text Edtior.

But the Problem Is When i First Press a Key the Text Editor takes it as a Number but i want it as alphahbet.

Any Suggestions??

Hi,

This example was very good. I have one more problem.

When I try to display a really long line in CEikEdwin, the line at the end of the EDWIN rectangle shows only have a line of text and I don't know how to make the EDWIN display full lines.

If the remaining height of the EDWIN rectangle is not enough to display the line, then the line should be displayed in the next page.

Please help,

sriram

Hi,

I tried using your function for setting the background color of my edwin. It almost works :) This problem is that the text is shorter than the edwin is wide. The background color is changed but just behind the text, the background that hasn't got any text is not changed.

It's a bit tough to explain, I hope you understand. Do you know what I can do to make the whole background color change?

The paragraph "Playing with text" describing how to append text to an edwin was very useful. Thank you!

The given piece of code seemed to position the cursor always to the beginning of the control. I also needed to insert line breaks into my iOutputWindow (CEikGlobalTextEditor), so I did the following:

iOutputWindow->InsertDeleteCharsL(iOutputWindow->TextLength(), aText, TCursorSelection(0,0));

_LIT(KTextNewLine, "\f");

iOutputWindow->InsertDeleteCharsL(iOutputWindow->TextLength(), KTextNewLine, TCursorSelection(0,0));

iOutputWindow->SetCursorPosL(iOutputWindow->TextLength(), EFalse);

Eric,

I think you have typo in the method below:

void CMyEdwin::SetTextColor(const TRgb& aColor) CCharFormatLayer* FormatLayer = CEikonEnv::NewDefaultCharFormatLayerL(); TCharFormat charFormat; TCharFormatMask charFormatMask; FormatLayer->Sense(charFormat, charFormatMask); charFormat.iFontPresentation.iTextColor=KRgbWhite; charFormatMask.SetAttrib(EAttColor); FormatLayer->SetL(charFormat, charFormatMask); SetCharFormatLayer(FormatLayer); // Edwin takes the ownership

Should bolded line indicate above be the following:

charFormat.iFontPresentation.iTextColor=aColor

CEikEdwin is the base class for all the Symbian editors and is powerful.... once you understand how it works as some quite simple operations are not that easy to implement. Here is a set of such primitives we comonly use at NewLC.
