Hi,
I'm trying to create a textarea that has segments of text that act like a character. By this I mean the following:
- the whole
string section cannot be edited
- if the first or last characters are deleted, the whole thing is deleted
- the cursor should jump across the whole string as if it were a single character
e.g.
[Number of Fields] * 32 + 5
where the [Number of Fields] is a segment of text that cannot be edited and has the above behaviour (the rest of the string acts like normal)
I know this sounds like a lot but I'm trying to achieve the same sort of behaviour found in Microsoft
Word for autotext (like toc, page numbers or date stamps).
Is this possible (an of it)? If so, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
