When developing word processing applications, you need to give the end user a way to easily transfer words or blocks of text from one location to another. You need to give them a way to remove words and blocks of text as well. WinFormattedTextEditor™ accommodates all these actions by default. When typing in the WinFormattedTextEditor control, the end user can use the Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, and Delete keys at any time to perform the Cut, Copy, Paste, and Delete actions respectively. You can also give the end user the option of performing these operations on a button click, perhaps in a toolbar. By using the Cut , Copy , Paste , and Delete methods off the EditInfo object, you can perform just that.
The following code demonstrates how to copy, paste, and then delete a line of text.
In Visual Basic:
' Copies the currently selected text to the clipboard. Me.UltraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Copy() ' Pastes the contents of the clipboard to the current ' cursor location. Me.UltraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Paste() ' Deletes the currently selected text. Me.UltraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Delete()
In C#:
// Copies the currently selected text to the clipboard. this.ultraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Copy(); // Pastes the contents of the clipboard to the current // cursor location. this.ultraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Paste(); // Deletes the currently selected text. this.ultraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.Delete();
