Hi Johan,
adding a custom shortcut for a Rubric-TextMorph is easy:
| window text |
text := RubWorkspaceExample new newScrolledText.
"define a custom shortcut"
text on:$t command do:[
text setText: text text asString reverse].
window := StandardWindow new.
window addMorph: text fullFrame: (0@0 corner: 1@1) asLayoutFrame.
window title: 'Example'.
window openInWorld.
This simple example will build a Rubric Scrolled Textmorph and add a
alt+t shortcut to reverse the current text
What ways did you already tried?
Modifying the existing #buildShortcuts method should work, for existing
RubTextEditor (or subclasses).
But if you define your own RubTextEditor you may need to define another
shortcut category and register your editor with that
category on the Morph you use.
For example, RubAbstractTextArea (a Morph) calls
super initializeShortcuts: aKMDispatcher.
self editor initializeShortcuts: aKMDispatcher
and teh editors #initializeShortcuts
will attach the editors category, defined in the editors class side
buildShortCutsOn method.
