setEditable odd behavior

[sderrick]

I set some documents as not editable.

When in Author mode if I try to edit the document a small popup displays saying

Cannot insert text in read only Context

, nice

When in text mode, our main editing mode, it does prevent editing but no popup? Can I enable that popup in text mode?

Hello,

Unfortunately that message doesn't come from a common place. It is specific to the Author mode. You could use the API to present a similar message when the user edits in the text mode:

Code: Select all

		// Create the AuthorComponent

		editorComponent = factory.createEditorComponentProvider(

				new String[] {EditorPageConstants.PAGE_TEXT},

				// The initial page

				EditorPageConstants.PAGE_TEXT);

		

		

		if (EditorPageConstants.PAGE_TEXT.equals(editorComponent.getWSEditorAccess().getCurrentPageID())) {

			final WSXMLTextEditorPage page = (WSXMLTextEditorPage) editorComponent.getWSEditorAccess().getCurrentPage();

			JTextComponent comp = (JTextComponent) page.getTextComponent();

			comp.getDocument().addDocumentListener(new DocumentListener() {

				@Override

				public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

					insertUpdate(e);

				}

				@Override

				public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

					if (!page.isEditable()) {

						// TODO Present a pop-up.

					}

				}

				@Override

				public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

					insertUpdate(e);

				}

			});

		}

Best regards,

I added the document listener.

Code: Select all

docListener = new DocumentListener() {

            @Override

            public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

                System.out.println("removeUpdate");

                insertUpdate(e);

            }



            @Override

            public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

                System.out.println("insertUpdate");

                if (!editable && EditorPageConstants.PAGE_TEXT.equals(editorComponent.getWSEditorAccess().getCurrentPageID())) {

                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Cannot insert text in read only Context!", "InfoBox: Text Insert", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

                }

            }



            @Override

            public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {

                System.out.println("changedUpdate");

                insertUpdate(e);

            }

        };



        final WSTextEditorPage page = (WSTextEditorPage) editorComponent.getWSEditorAccess().getCurrentPage();

        JTextComponent comp = (JTextComponent) page.getTextComponent();

        comp.getDocument().addDocumentListener(docListener);

Unfortunately it is only called if the document is editable. Any document that has this function called

Code: Select all

((WSTextBasedEditorPage) page).setEditable(editableFlag);

where editableFlag == false

the listener is not called and no popup to let the user know they are trying to edit a read only document?

Hello,

Ups! I'm sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase... You can try a KeyListener instead. I've tested such a listener and it receives events:

Code: Select all

JTextComponent comp = (JTextComponent) page.getTextComponent();

comp.addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {

	public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {

		System.out.println("Key typed");

	}

	public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {}

	public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {}

});

Best regards,
Alex

Alex,

Excellent! I'll give it a go. No problem chasing gooses. I think sometimes I'm in the Goose manufacturing business!

Thanks for all the great help. Your tech support is unsurpassed.

Hi,

Just to update this thread, in Oxygen 17.1 trying to edit in the Text editing mode with a read-only document should result in an error tooltip shown to the user.
