LinkedPosition iteration not working in e4 application [message #1718233]

Hi,

I have a pure e4 application and am using the SourceViewer class as an editor. I have added a KeyBinding on TAB key for shifting code to the right.

Now I also want to use LinkedPosition(s) to edit text simultaneously at multiple places in my document. But on pressing tab the editor does not iterate through the LinkedPositions but does a shift.

How can i change/fix that?

Thanx for any help in advance.

Mihael

I am a mere neophyte with Platform/Text, but I guess hazard that you haven't associated your LinkedPositions with a position updater?

I am already adding an InclusivePositionUpdater.

updater = new InclusivePositionUpdater(getCategory());
document.addPositionUpdater(updater);

Any further idea?

Thanx in advance.

You'll either need to post your code or (better yet) post a simple example demonstrating your problem.

If i return false from my canExecute() method in my ShiftHandler the tabbing through the linked positions is working. So my handler eats the key event for the linked positions iteration.

Is there a way where to know if my viewer/document is in linkedmode?
