Multiline editting behavior that is optimized to handle relatively large (thousands of lines) texts.
that have this behavior applied by default:
<plaintext>...</plaintext> display:block editor;that this behavior knows about:
readonly - declares that element is read only.Plaintext parses each line of text into separate <text> element:
<plaintext> <text>Line 1</text> <text>Line 2</text> <text>Line 3</text> </plaintext>
Together with the standard set of events (mouse, keyboard, focus) behavior: button generates:
string, reflects current status of internal editing buffer.
dir attribute these key combinations switches between dir="ltr" and dir="rtl".Commands supported by the behavior through Element.execCommand() and Element.queryMethods():
"edit:cut" - cut selection - copy selection to the clipboard and remove it;"edit:copy" - copy selection to the clipboard;"edit:paste" - paste content of the clipboard;"edit:selectall" - select whole content of the element;"edit:undo" - undo last editing operation;"edit:redo" - redo last operation that was undone;"edit:delete-next" - if there is a selection - delete selected content, otherwise delete next character;"edit:delete-prev" - if there is a selection - delete selected content, otherwise delete previous character;"edit:delete-word-next" - if there is a selection - delete selected content, otherwise delete next word;"edit:delete-word-prev" - if there is a selection - delete selected content, otherwise delete previous word;Note: API of plaintext is accessible on element by using .plaintext. interface modifier:
const editor = $(plaintext#editor);
editor.plaintext.load("file://users/documents/readme.txt");
plaintext[index:integer]for(var line in el.plaintext) plaintext.contentplaintext.linesplaintext.selectionStart
plaintext.selectionEndplaintext.selectionTextplaintext.load(url:string): true|false
loads file from URL into the editor;
plaintext.save(url:string): true|false
saves content to file defined by the file url;
plaintext.selectRange(startLine:integer, startPosition:integer, endLine:integer, endPosition:integer) selects text range;
plaintext.appendLine(text:string | lines: array): true|false
appends line at the end of the text;
plaintext.insertLine(at: integer, text:string | lines: array): true|false
inserts line at position n;
plaintext.removeLine(at : integer [, count: integer) : true|false removes line[s] at position;
