Spaces at end of line
« on: August 04, 2022, 11:05:56 pm »
say I have 'ab' and then typing n spaces after that, ENTER
'c'

Twice left arrow and it jumps to 'ab'. Like spaces are gone ?

It works like that on purpose. Spaces at the end of line are useless.

This feature can be turned off (see the attached picture).

And in case one would want to  not trim trailing spacees in SynEdit ? Can't find prop.

Looks strange, user can see how caret goes to right,
TRegExp match (check on every synedit chage) does not see extra spaces. 

Until some other char is typed, then spaces in match miraculously appears.

Yes, trailing spaces are virtual. They aren't part of TSynEdit.Lines, until something is typed after them.

Nough said.
Specialize a type, not a var.

another thing, having eoTrimTrailingSpaces off

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. 'aaaaaa           '
pres backspace at end of that, goes one space back
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. '           aaaaaa'
presing backspace before first a, it deletes all spaces.

Is that OK ?
