cl_gui_textedit: check if editor has the cursor

[former_member472017]

Hi!

Short question: I have a text editor defined with cl_gui_textedit embedded in a custom control. How can I check if the editor has the cursor? In my tests if the cursor stands on the editor, the statement

get cursor field...

doesn't return anything.

What other possibilities do I have?

Thanks

Alexander.

Set Cursor on Text Editor CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT

I've created a text editor using CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT on a custom container (CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER) and I need to set the active cursor on it.

I've tried with the method SET_FOCUS but it doesn't work.

CALL METHOD o_textedit->set_focus

EXPORTING

control = o_textedit.

Also I've tried with method GO_TO_LINE by passing the first line but it

doesn't work either. It only selects the first line but the cursor isn't

positioned on it, I mean, I need to click on the text editor to start to write.

CALL METHOD o_textedit->go_to_line

EXPORTING

line = 1.

Anyone knows how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

try like this.

Data: editor2 TYPE REF TO cl_gui_textedit.

CALL METHOD CL_GUI_CONTROL=>SET_FOCUS

EXPORTING

CONTROL = editor2.

Hi Prashant,

thank you, I eventually solved it with the method get_focused.

Hi Prashant,

thank you, but I don't want to set focus. Rather I would like to find out if the cursor has been set on the editor.

Was get_focused a typo for get_focus, did you try to also flush with CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.?
