Bug in Richtext Node Ctrl-Shift->

[Eric Robishaw]

Richtext boxes allow you to increment / decrement the selected text by using Control-Shift-> (greater than) and Ctrl-Shift-< (Less than)

However, when you do this in the diagram control crashes it. Version 5x did not crash it, version 6x does..

Error: "value of '-nnn' is not valid for 'SelectionLength'"
where nnn is the number of character you had selected before doing the operation.

This error is only caught in Global application scope error handling, otherwise, the entire app shuts down.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for this update. I have had logged this as a defect report.

Workaround:
As a temporary solution, you can use the selection of text in the "Forward Direction" and not using "Ctrl+A".

Selecting this way and using the modifier keys to increase or decrease the size works precisely and no exception is thrown.

Let me know if you shall need any further clarifications in this regard.

Happy coding!

Interesting. Thanks.

I'll see if I can derive a super class of the RichTextEditor and fix that behavior.
