Method Detail

getSelectionStart

int getSelectionStart()
Get selection start offset. It is inclusive.

Returns:
The selection start offset, 0 based.

getSelectionEnd

int getSelectionEnd()
Get selection end offset. It is exclusive.

Returns:
The selection end offset, 0 based.

getSelectedText

java.lang.String getSelectedText()
Get the selected text. The text does not contain XML tags for the Author page.

Returns:
The selected text or an empty string if no selection is present.

getCaretOffset

int getCaretOffset()
The current caret offset.

Returns:
The caret offset, 0 based.

deleteSelection

void deleteSelection()
Delete the selected text, if any.


hasSelection

boolean hasSelection()
Check if the editor page has a selection

Returns:
true if there is a selection, false otherwise.

selectWord

void selectWord()
Select the word at caret, if any.


setCaretPosition

void setCaretPosition(int offset)
Move the caret to the specified offset.

Parameters:
offset - The offset where the caret should be positioned, 0 based.

select

void select(int startOffset,
            int endOffset)
Select the interval between start and end offset.

Parameters:
startOffset - Inclusive start offset
endOffset - Exclusive end offset

getWordAtCaret

int[] getWordAtCaret()
Compute the offsets of the word that contains the caret position.

Returns:
An array with the start and end offsets of the word at caret or null if the values couldn't be obtained. The start offset is inclusive and greater or equal than 1. The end offset is also inclusive and less or equal than the content length.

getLocationOnScreenAsPoint

Point getLocationOnScreenAsPoint(int x,
                                 int y)
Take relative mouse coordinates and translate then to absolute on-screen coordinates.

Parameters:
x - The "x" coordinate relative to the viewport origin.
y - The "y" coordinate relative to the viewport origin.
Returns:
A point with the "x" and "y" coordinates relative to the screen. It does not return a null Point.

getLocationRelativeToEditorFromScreen

Point getLocationRelativeToEditorFromScreen(int x,
                                            int y)
Take mouse coordinates relative to the main application frame/display and translate then to coordinates relative to the editing area.

Parameters:
x - The "x" coordinate which is relative to the main application frame/display.
y - The "y" coordinate which is relative to the main application frame/display.
Returns:
A point with the "x" and "y" coordinates relative to the editing component area. It does not return a null Point. For example an Eclipse org.eclipse.swt.dnd.DropTargetEvent has the x and y coordinates relative to the Display. In order to use API like viewToModelOffset(), the coordinates need to be translated relative to the editing area.

x - The "x" coordinate relative to the editing component origin.
y - The "y" coordinate relative to the editing component origin.
