Paragraph Questions.

[ghost]

Hi Tomas,

To confirm, a paragraph is collection of styled texts that is separated from others by a new line before it and after it. right?

Would it be possible to provide a method to get Paragraph at caret?

Probably outside your scope, not sure. but do you plan to provide paragraph alignment options?

Thanks,
Maher

Yes, basically. More precisely, a paragraph is a sequence of styled texts
and an optional line terminator. All paragraphs in a StyledDocument except
the last one do have a line terminator.

Would it be possible to provide a method to get Paragraph at caret?

You can already do that:

area.getParagraphs().get(area.getCurrentParagraph());

Probably outside your scope, not sure. but do you plan to provide
paragraph alignment options?

I don't have any concrete plans, but this falls under issue #6.

Thanks. How about the start and end of a paragraph? or set style for a
whole paragraph?

Just note that paragraph.restyle(newStyle) doesn't change the paragraph in the text area. It creates and returns a new one. To change the style of a paragraph in a text area, you use area.setStyle(paragraphIndex, newStyle).

Hmm OK. And to get the index of the paragraph at caret I would do indexOf
right?

I got the paragraph with currentParagrapht.
Is there a way to get its indexRange from the area?

[ghost]

The reason I need this is that I am applying a size change to a paragraph, but it it has different styled texts. so I only want to update the size. so I am using the styles.map method. for that, I need to set styleSpans to the range, where the paragraph starts and ends.

I found a full length method, but trying to figure out a way to get the start location of a paragraph.

moved this to another issue an enhancement request :)

Per-paragraph alignment is now supported with the latest SNAPSHOT.
