I should forget V10 and get on with V11. However, the IR&D project I'm working on uses 10 and I have a problem with the Text Edit Editor in XRay. I would assume others have had a similar problem and there is an available fix. The problem: If I provide a default for the editor, it appears in the box - no problem. If the user backspaces from the end of the string to the beginning, they can no longer enter text. If they position the cursor at the beginning of the string and start typing, rather than backspacing to that position, they can enter text. Similarly, if there is no default string, indicated by an ascii.nul in the first position of the buffer, they will be unable to enter text in the field. Although I'm writing this in Ada, the C programmers we have here are experiencing a similar problem. Could someone point me to the fix, or fixes we need to overcome this ?
