Missing Lua Bindings: TextArea

[reepblue]

So far, I've found that

• AddText isn't exposed.
• TEXTAREA_SCROLLDOWN isn't exposed.
• Lock/Unlock isn't exposed.

 

--Get the displays
local displays = GetDisplays()

--Create a window
local window = CreateWindow("Console", 0, 0, 800 * displays[1].scale, 600 * displays[1].scale, displays[1], WINDOW_CENTER | WINDOW_TITLEBAR)

local ui = CreateInterface(window)
local parent = ui.background


local x = 8
local y = 8
local sz = parent:ClientSize()

local log = CreateTextArea(x, y, sz.x - x * 2, sz.y - 40 - y, parent, TEXTAREA_SCROLLDOWN)
log:SetLayout(1, 1, 1, 1)
local textentryfield = CreateTextField(x, sz.y - 32, sz.x - x * 2, 24, parent)
textentryfield:SetLayout(1, 1, 0, 1)


while not window:Closed() do
    local ev = WaitEvent()
	--ui:ProcessEvent(ev)

    if ev.id == EVENT_PRINT then
		if log.text == "" then 
			log:AddText(ev.text)
		else
			log:AddText("\n" .. ev.text)
		end
    elseif ev.id == EVENT_WIDGETACTION then
        if ev.source == textentryfield then
            textentryfield:Lock()
			Print("] " .. ev.text)
			textentryfield:Activate()
			textentryfield:SetText("")
			textentryfield:UnLock()
        end
    elseif ev.id == EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE then
        return 0
    end
end

I can see Lock/Unlock in the Lua binding code. What makes you think it is not present? I can see they are not in the documentation, which means they won't show up in autocompletion and syntax highlighting, but they should still work.

Ok, I was under the impression that they weren't' exposed because they didn't auto complete.

Widget:AddText is added to Lua.

Constant is renamed to TEXTAREA_AUTOSCROLL and added to Lua.
