Set Cursor on Text Editor CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

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.
