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.
Do they?
That's odd, as the documentation has this:
"Value:
The textStyle of an object or chunk is either "plain", empty, "mixed",
or one or more of the following, separated by commas:
* bold
* italic
* underline
* strikeout
* box
* threeDbox
* link (or group)
* condensed
* expanded
Comments:
Setting the textStyle to "plain" turns off all styles. (Setting the
textStyle to "plain" plus one or more additional styles may result in
anomalous behavior.)"
However, having just tested them (LC 6.6) I can confirm that they do
throw errors.
Bug report time!
Richmond.
