hasSelection() will tell you if text is selected. getSelectionStart() and getSelectionEnd() will tell you the offsets into the text of the start and end of the selection/cursor (or -1 if there is no selection/cursor). In theory, you can use this, along with the text in the editor, to get the selected text. I haven't tried this, so there may be issues, but it's where I'd start. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ -- Available Now! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
