Hi
Does anyone know much about this class? The document in the API specification is vague at best... what I'd like to know is how to change a document in two places at the same time in the DefaultAutoIndentStrategy class. Here is an example.
Before:
some_text
User types in a '|' character
After
some_text
| _
where "_" is where the carat should be. So in other words, when the user enters a '|' character, the top line gets shifted over AND a tab is appended to the document command text, so the new offset and the text from the previous line are aligned. That's two changes, I believe. I noticed there is an addCommand method in the DocumentCommand class, but I have no idea what this does.
Cheers,
Derek

You can manipulate the DocumentCommand in an indent strategy by overriding
customizeDocumentCommand(IDocument, DocumentCommand)
Check the Ant auto indent strategy for an example (AntAutoIndentStrategy)
