I suspect it's a good time to pick one version for the docs =) (either is fine) modules/jfx.incubator.richtext/src/main/java/jfx/incubator/scene/control/richtext/RichTextArea.java line 1193: > 1191: * @see RichTextArea.Tags#CUT > 1192: */ > 1193: public void cut() { We have `copy(DataFormat)` and `paste(DataFormat)`. Would it make sense to also have `cut(DataFormat)`? modules/jfx.incubator.richtext/src/main/java/jfx/incubator/scene/control/richtext/SelectionModel.java line 74: > 72: * @param pos the new caret position, must be non-null > 73: */ > 74: public void extendSelection(StyledTextModel model, TextPos pos); Kind of picky-thinking of nomenclature here (but do correct me if I'm wrong) - "extend" strictly means to make something larger, while this assumes you can also make the selection smaller. How does `modifySelection` or `adjustSelection` sound like instead? modules/jfx.incubator.richtext/src/main/java/jfx/incubator/scene/control/richtext/SingleSelectionModel.java line 88: > 86: a = pos; > 87: } else { > 88: if(pos.compareTo(sel.getMin()) < 0) { Minor: styling mistake - `s/if(/if (` here and L91 ------------- PR Review: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1524#pullrequestreview-2472964042 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1524#discussion_r1867884183 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1524#discussion_r1867901791 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1524#discussion_r1867710940 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1524#discussion_r1867676038
