Title: Word wrap in Richedit control
Post by: Jerry Muelver on February 08, 2008, 02:53:14 AM

I'm not getting word-wrap in my Richedit control:
CONTROL d1,@RICHEDIT,"",7,35,570,294,@CTEDITMULTI|@CTEDITRETURN|@CTEDITAUTOV|@VSCROLL,1

Letters pile up on the right margin, instead of wrapping to the next line. :(

Ah! Set line length in twips. Of course.
CONTROLCMD window | dialog, ID, @RTSETLINEWIDTH, width

And if user resizes, recount the twips, I suppose....

Jerry,
I'm beginning to think you have "dual" personalities!
You post a question and then you post the answer. :D

Did I see you on the "Twilight Zone"? ;)

The only thing I can do at the "speed of light" is foul up! :D

I'm not so sure about your "foul up" assertion, Larry. I've been looking at your Whizzywig hybrid editor implementation. There's more than a germ of an idea there.... More like a blooming tumor on my ambitions. I may have to pull the plug on my RichEdit adventures and do a fork off your editor instead.

A couiple more asked-and-answered questions, and my plans will crystallize... or maybe ossify. ::)
