Forcing 'Overwrite' in editor gadget

I've searched for a way to set 'overwrite' in the editor gadget but to no avail. It works when I toggle it manually so I figured there should be a way to set the key on and force this 'overwrite' behaviour.

Having Purebasic switching the keyboard keys (in XP) is way above my knowledge right now ...

Re: Editor Gadget - which column is cursor in?

Ok... I got it working... and you were both absolutely right. I needed to use variables to hold the returned values instead of trying to convert them immediately to strings.... :oops:

Thanks! Very helpful forum indeed.

Re: Editor Gadget - which column is cursor in?

Thanks so much. But both procedures only return the maximum number of either columns or lines, not where the cursor is in those lines. At least, that is the result I'm getting with the editor gadget after loading up an RTF and then moving around within it. Again, thank you both for your response ...

Editor Gadget - which column is cursor in?

I am interrogating the editor gadget to find the line number and column of the cursor. I can get the line number ok... but getting the column that the cursor has moved to (with the cursor keys) has stumped me. The lines are of differing lengths so that doesn't help.

Does anyone have any ideas?

While we wait you might want to look at wxPython. It's very good on OSX as well as many other platforms.

No, it doesn't replace PureBasic, but it certainly has given me something to play with.
