Hi !
I would like to catch the return key in the rich text tab of an
RichTextEditor to insert a new line. For now, it just "simulates" the
pressing of the [OK] button.
I tried to add a keylistener to the RichTextEditor object but special keys
such as return key or backspace key are not catched. I also tried to
implements my class from KeyListener with no results.
Does anyone have some ideas to fix this ?
I also noticed that some key events are not catch in the keyPressed
function but they are in the keyReleased function. Does anyone know why ?
thanks in advance,
Aline

If you're talking about placing a RichTextEditor in a JFace Dialog, then
the answer is to override
org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog.createButtonsForButtonBar(C omposite)
and change the way it creates the OK button (pass false as the final
argument to createButton() instead of true).
Hope this helps,
Eric
