Question about history.
I'm stuck using a VB6 environment. I've gor ScintillaVB and modified it for my application (basically adding extra interfaces). The cursor keys don't work, but they do with shify and CTRL.
I searched the archive, and found a previous post on this. The suggestion was to try KeyPreview. Ive turned this on and put KeyUp and KeyDown handlers (KeyPress event returns ASCII code only - so doesn't work for cursor or F keys having KeyUp/KeyDown and KeyPress is nonsense anyway) into the form where the ScintillaVB control is placed. Pressing letter keys causes the sequence KeyDown event, the letter appears in the Scintilla window, KeyUp event. Pressing a cursor key with shift or CTRL generates a KeyDown, text highlights in scintilla widow (for shift), KeyUp. Pressing just the cursor key has no effect in the scintilla window and no events are generated in the form.
As a second issue, when I set the focus to the scintillaVB control the caret does not appear at its current position. Also when I programatically move the current position, the text moves, but the caret is not shown.
Clues please - I'm tearing my hair out.
TIA
Simon
