Sorry, I overhead the "selected".
Windows:
Code: Select all
Define start.l.end.l
Sendmessage_(GadgetID(#MyEditor),#EM_GETSEL,@start,@end)
SetClipboardText(Mid(GetGadgetText(#MyEditor),start+1,end-start))
Typed on my phone, hope it's correct.

Under Linux you need a different approach.

It is always an advantage to specify in your initial question for which operating system you are looking for a solution.
Here is a sample code for Linux:
http://www.chabba.de/Linux/EditorGadget ... Command.pb
- Select text in the EditorGadget and press the left button at the top to copy the selected text to the clipboard.
- Select text in the EditorGadget and press the middle button at the top to cut out the selected text and copy it to the clipboard.
- Place the text cursor anywhere in the text of the EditorGadget and press the top right button to paste the text from the clipboard to the position of the text cursor.
