Hallo Thierry, it is about the same: 1200 milliseconds on a text of 1000 lines and about 2.000.000 chars.
the point is that using "set the textStyle["bold"]" on chunks is a lot faster, on top it preserves preexisting textStyles of the chunk whereas "set the textStyle of chunk to "bold"" is slower and wipes preexisting textStyles. Although I noticed "set the textStyle["plain"]" or "set the textStyle["empty"]" throws an error. I think it should be allowed. à bientôt Bernd Thierry Douez wrote > Hallo Bernd, > and what about > set the textStyle["bold"] of field 1 to true > against > set the textStyle of field 1 to "bold" > ?? -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/set-the-textStyle-box-of-word-x-of-line-y-to-true-is-very-fast-tp4676113p4676140.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
