Hi Antonio,
are you thinking about implementing "PARAFORMAT" indenting in richedit control ?

Gianni,

the structure PARAFORMAT is already supported, see method ::SetParaFormat ()

Stefan,

where is ::SetParaFormat () method?
I cannot found it in my Trichedi.prg
My version is FWH 8.05

Gianni,

Here you have an example of its use in Class TRichEdit:

Code: Select all

METHOD SetAlign( nAlign ) CLASS TRichEdit

   DEFAULT nAlign := PFA_LEFT

   RESetParaFormat( ::hWnd, nAlign )

   ::Change()

return nil

Thanks Antonio, but I already know this.
I'm not talking about "align" support, but "indenting" support; so I can implement a ruler like "WordPad".
At this time there is no support for "paraformat" member in bold:

typedef struct _paraformat {
UINT cbSize;
DWORD dwMask;
WORD wNumbering;
WORD wReserved;
LONG dxStartIndent;
LONG dxRightIndent;
LONG dxOffset;
WORD wAlignment;
SHORT cTabCount;
LONG rgxTabs[MAX_TAB_STOPS];
} PARAFORMAT;

Another question:
If I open, for example, fiveodbc.rtf included in folder samples, all grids are wrong. Have you this problem too?

Oops, should be ReSetParaFormat () as Antonbio said. Sorry.

Gianni,

Grids seem ok here:

You can easily modify RESETPARAFORMAT() to support those struct members:

Code: Select all

HB_FUNC( RESETPARAFORMAT )
{
   PARAFORMAT pf;

   memset( ( char * ) &pf, 0, sizeof( pf ) );

   pf.cbSize = sizeof( pf );
   pf.dwMask = PFM_ALIGNMENT;
   pf.wAlignment |= hb_parnl( 2 );

   hb_retl( SendMessage( ( HWND ) hb_parnl( 1 ), EM_SETPARAFORMAT, 0,
                         ( LPARAM ) &pf ) );
}

this seems ok, but if you go a little forward (about half rtf) you can see another grid, with longer text inside, that don't resize its height to contain all text. Compare it opening same rtf with WordPad

}

Thanks.
So, are you not implementing anything about this in near future?

Gianni,

We are going to provide new enhancements for Class TRichEdit, and we will probably implement this too

Great!!!
I will waiting for it.

Many thanks
