Manually execute "backspace" or "delete" call?
|
|
|
|
|
Is there a way to, from code, simulate "backspace" or "delete" key presses by calling a function or something?
I'm using the ActiveX component of the pinEditor.

So there is no way to, in code, remove the previous or next character? Okay.
Then i wonder, is there a way to capture the backspace and delete key presses to do a custom action?

Hi.
I'm sorry but the EditorKeyDown event doesn't send the KeyCode for backspace key presses. It's said to be a control key but there's no way to verify if the key pressed was backspace or not. Can i somehow alter the code to allow this?

And is it possible to cancel keypresses somehow?
I'm trying to create a workaround which will remove a selected object (i.e. an object selected for resizing). Maybe there's an easy way to do this?

Hi,
no it's not possible to cancel key press.
Please try this:
editor.execute("editGetActiveObject().removeNode(true)")

Sure, thanks, but i've already tried it and it works fine. However, i only want to remove the selected object if there's an object selected, and only otherwise i want to do a regular backspace/delete. Can that solution be expanded to solve this?

Hi,
you can find out if there is a selection by using
editor.document.createRange()
You have to add mshtml.dll as reference.
Then you have full access to all objects.
But you can no initiate a backspace/delete this way.
You can only remove something if you select it by using Range object and then clear range.
Regards,
Hans-Peter
