Virtual Space Options

[m***@gmail.com]

Hi Neil,

I found your post
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/scintilla-interest/caret/scintilla-interest/4VsnNKiaL0A/qS-E4Q6TRQ8J> on
discontinguous selections and the virtual space options are exactly what I
was looking for. However, can you elaborate on SCVS_RECTANGULARSELECTION
and SCVS_USERACCESSIBLE and what each does? It's not clear to me from your
post, the documentation, or experimentation what each does.

Thanks,
Michael

Its really hard for me to understand just what you are not understanding so, in these situations, I often just repeat what I said before. Perhaps someone else can explain it in a different way that is a better match for you. Or just try SCVS_RECTANGULARSELECTION | SCVS_USERACCESSIBLE and see how it goes.

Ok, I'll post some examples next week. In short I tried both settings
against some sample test and did normal selection, discontiguous
selection while holding Alt key, and just clicking beyond the EOL
character and visually everything looks the same. I experimented with
those options and saw no difference in behavior, but not knowing what
each does I don't know how to test it against text to see any
differences.

Thanks,
Michael

Thanks, we can ignore this. I had some build funk. Earlier I could not get
the caret to go beyond the end of line for anything other than block
selection. After cleaning my build and performing a full rebuild of my
application it's working. The setting must not have been applied before.
