[Gambas-user] TextEdit will not link

[timothy]

Hello,

The problem is I have a help system in a few applications of mine that
used to provide multi page help using a TextView and some HTML files. It
is now unusable. In the past the user clicked on a HTML link and this
fired the TextView_Link(Path AS String) event. You could then use the
Path to load the relevant HTML page.

The TextView has now been replaced with the TextEdit. While it displays
HTML links it will not fire an event when they are clicked upon. Hence
the help system in a number of my applications is useless.

If in the next version of Gambas the TextEdit was to re-gain this
functionality then I could live with this. Or is there any other way
around this?

The TextEdit looks like it could be a useful control. But at the moment
I am a bit annoyed with it because I have lost some important
functionality.

Thanks
