Implementing undo/copy/cut in Vex Dialog [message #1062069]

Hi

When implementing a Vex dialog, similar to Florian's magazine sample, is there an easy way to add copy, undo and cut XML?

I tried:

vexWidget.addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {            
  public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
  ...            
}

but it does the operations on TEXT format and not XML format (it will copy pure text, but not XML).

Putting a breakpoint in EditorManager, I noticed that when using the editor, the base contributor is VexActionBarContributor, but when using Vex inside the dialog, the base contributor is ComponentEditorContributor.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

OK. Found the solution. Extended the widget and implemented the copy/paste without actually using the clipboard, but doing getSelectedFragment() in the copy and keeping the result for the paste.
