Is there any way to set the caret in a text widget based on a position
(x,y coordinate)?
The setSelection(Point) method seems to treat the Point as (start, end)
so no use there.
I'm looking for something to match the Windows:
EM_CHARFROMPOS message.
Thanks,
Doug

That's excellent Grant -- just what I needed.
Many thanks (I'd been rolling my own by adding EM_CHARFROMPOS
messages...not exactly cross platform :)
Many thanks,
Doug
