Untested Multiline Textbox Fix

Multiline Textbox Fix

 

Description

Like @Lathander said, "it doesn't look like the multi-line textbox was given any love". This mod is here to help on that.

 

Features

Basic features to expect from a text editor including:
Keyboard shortcuts: Ctr+C, Ctr+V, Ctr+A, Ctr+X
Horizontal and vertical scrollbar

 

Issues

Vertical scrollbar doesn't scroll precisely using keyboard directional input if the text has many lines.

The caret (thin black bar) doesn't react precisely to the mouse actions.

Client crashes when trying to paste a text when nothing has been copied
Some json properties are not taken in consideration like the "TextColor" one.

The scrollbar doesn't disappear when erasing the text.

Note

In order to use this mod you have to know how to create a json file by using the code.

Download links in the GitPatch section are up to date with the latest fixes.

Spoiler

Actually, the current multiline text box is not usable as we cannot type multiple lines or create a json with it (preview here). This code is here to help on that. Basically, it generates a label for each line.

 

So there are two new parameters when instancing a multiline textbox: a string for the name of the json file, and a boolean to allow the write permission.

 

The image below represents a json file generated by the code above. Values inside the green boxes are the ones shared with the text (more precisely the labels). The other ones are not taken in consideration or apply to the text container only.

Do you mind if we ultimately bring this into the main repo? (I haven't looked at the code yet)

Sure you can! I wanted to do a pull request but I didn't know if it would be necessary.
