Copy RTF text?

[El_Choni]

This works here, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for:

Code: Select all

#RECO_COPY = 2

If OpenWindow(0, 200, 50, 640, 480, "Editor Gadget Copy Paste", #PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_MaximizeGadget)=0:End:EndIf
If CreateMenu(0, WindowID(0))=0:End:EndIf
  MenuTitle("&Edit")
    MenuItem(0, "Paste to 2")
If CreateGadgetList(WindowID(0))=0:End:EndIf 
EditorGadget(0, 0, 0, WindowWidth(0)/2, WindowHeight(0))
EditorGadget(1, WindowWidth(0)/2, 0, WindowWidth(0)/2, WindowHeight(0))
Repeat
  EventID = WaitWindowEvent()
  If EventID=#PB_Event_Menu And EventMenu()=0
    SendMessage_(GadgetID(0), #EM_GETOLEINTERFACE, 0, @Object.IRichEditOle)
    chr.s = Space(8):PokeL(@chr, 0):PokeL(@chr+4, -1) ; Workaround for bug in IRichEditOle::GetClipboardData PB definition
;    chr.CHARRANGE\cpMax = -1                    ; end char (0, -1): the whole data
;    Object\GetClipboardData(@chr, #RECO_COPY, @dataobj.IDataObject)
    Object\GetClipboardData(chr, #RECO_COPY, @dataobj.IDataObject)
    SendMessage_(GadgetID(1), #EM_GETOLEINTERFACE, 0, @Object2.IRichEditOle)
    Object2\ImportDataObject(dataobj, 0, 0) ; text will replace current selection or
  EndIf                                        ; placed at currect cursor position
Until EventID=#PB_Event_CloseWindow
End

That works very nice El_Choni, thank you!

However Iam still having trouble:
Iam using a callback to check if tab has been pressed or editorgadget has changed. The mask is:

Code: Select all

  ;...We catch the events in the #WM_COMMAND and #WM_NOTIFY msg in our CallBack procedure
  SendMessage_(GadgetID(#MainEditor), #EM_SETEVENTMASK, 0, #ENM_KEYEVENTS|#ENM_CHANGE|SendMessage_(GadgetID(#MainEditor), #EM_GETEVENTMASK, 0, 0))

This effects editorgadget so that it doesn't change RTF-text background color when using your copy snippet, however all other changes seem to work all right.
If the mask is removed copying works well.

You mean, if you use that mask, the text background color isn't copied?

[omit59]

I thought that the mask or the callback was causing the problem, but I made another code and disabling either mask or callback; no problem, copy still works.

I must check what is really causing the problem...

The change event in the editorgadget was reason for that.
The copy snippet works great, me just being really stupid!!!
