RichEditCtrl - pasted text not visible initially!?
-
I have a RichEditCtrl that "initially" does not diplay text that is pasted into it (using my_RichEditCtrl->Paste() or by Shift-Insert,Ctrl- V). The text "is" displayed if you then obscure the window and cause a redraw. What do I have to do to get the text to be made visible after the paste? Is it something to do with the configuration of the RE Ctrl, e.g in the Create call, or something I must do after the paste?. Thank-you Steve

Dear Steve, Offhand, it sounds like you need to invalidate the area of the control after doing the paste, so that the new text will pop into view right away. I'm not an RE expert, but there should be a way to do an OnUpdate() or OnDraw() call for the control, which is after all a window. I hope this helps, Wes Rogers
