Hello folks,
Well I get more and more the impression than this issue is just not
getting any attention... I remember having read someone complained about
too less help from the community. On the other hand, I do find it very
difficult to get into code of the example. This is due to
in-developmnent code as example and lack of documentation (very few
explanations in bugzilla or in code itself).
I made a first step on collecting the information around bugzilla and
the code base.
What I am asking for? Is it possible for someone who has understanding
of the code base to comment on bug 74784, adding the status of the text
support/example and sorting the different issues (bugzilla, code todos)
I provided here?
I believe that providing more information on the example could generate
more returns from the community.
Thx,
Nils
in-code TODOS:
TODO : cleanup any pending styles? TextTool.java
TODO : during a swipe, the viewer should not be firing selection changes
the whole time. SelectionRangeDragTracker.java
TODO : optimize by ensuring that runs in the same container don't cause
BlockEditPolicy.java
TODO : Pratik you should expose the text location first (it might not
be visible) GraphicalTextViewer.java
TODO : should this be all pending styles or just the recently set?
TextTool.java
TODO : should this be reflexive? Container.java
TODO : uncomment this when this class moves to the same package as
AbstractTool TextTool.java
TODO :Pratik change all these setSelection() methods so that they
don't affect GraphicalTextViewer.java
TODO :Pratik Hack. This shouldn't be here. CommandStack should be
doing this automatically. GraphicalTextViewer.java
TODO :Pratik remove getSelectionRange and all references to it. Use
GraphicalTextViewer.java
TODO :Pratik remove setSelectionRange and all references to it. Use
GraphicalTextViewer.java
TODO :Pratik StyleService cannot be final TextTool.java
TODO :Pratik this should never happen TextFlowPart.java
I also collected the info from the bugtracker:

Selecting text in WSIWIG example makes text disappear -
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=135345
Some of the bugs (106416: insert key doesn't work properly in the text
example) seem to be partly fixed but no comment was made on the bug
itself???
Some other bugs contain code (135345: Selecting text in WSIWIG example
makes text disappear), can it be used?
