Intellisense, Essential Edit, finding key word(s) before the '.'

[Ian Williams]

I'm trying to find a better way to extract the word BEFORE the '.' when using the ContextChoicePopup event. For example, in the edit string "X = object1.", I need to get to the word at the left of the '.' Right now I'm using

editControl1.WordLeft();
editControl1.WordLeft();
str = editControl1.GetCurrentWord();
editControl1.WordRight();
editControl.WordRight();

I'm thinking, "Gee, there must be a better way to do this.

Hi Ian,

We appreciate your feedback on this issue. I am afraid this is the only way to do it in the present architecture of the EditControl.However, we could consider this as a feature request for a future release of Essential Edit. Thank you once again for your feedback, and for choosing Syncfusion products.
