Hi. Make two small fields, both with lineWrap set to "false". Line up the two field horizontally. Put some wrapped text into vld 1. Put this in a button somewhere:
on mouseUp lock screen put fld 1 into storage replace return with return & numToChar(208) in fld 1 put fld 1 into workingText put the formattedText of fld 1 into temp put 1 into line 1 of lineCounter put 1 into lineTracker repeat with y = 1 to the number of lines of temp if line y of temp contains numToChar(208) then add 1 to lineTracker put lineTracker into line y of lineCounter end if end repeat put storage into fld 1 put lineCounter into fld 2 end mouseUp I needed to pollute the source field in order to use the formattedText and identify the hard returns. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Line-numbers-for-soft-wrapped-styled-text-tp4713343p4713356.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
