Hi Jim
Normally I want the text to be editable most of the time, so it needs to be
in the field, but just hidden. But i can definitely see uses for your
suggestion of having different "views" instantly available.
Regards
Kaveh

You might save into a variable the HTMLTEXT of all the lines that contain the
textcolor.
Also save the HTMLTEXT of the whole field into another variable.
Then in a blink of an eye you can instantly switch between the entire

Oh yes, was rather silly of me not to keep this in mind. There is a simple
remedy:
put ("color=" is in fld 1) into isInField
if isInField then replace "c
The code will not work if you have htmltext containing the text "color=" like:

Right, and accessing a field is one of the most expensive operations in LC.
Maybe Richard will post his analogy to the maintenance worker again. I

So the first form populates the field only oncesince its a single
command so no other states of the field will exist.
Makes perfect sense.
Thanks

Can someone explain the seemingly extraordinary performance improvement in
using apparently its "split second" vs "over a minute"
set the hidden of line 1 to - 1 of field 1 to false

repeat with i = 1 the number of lines of fld 1

So we have here two methods:
The htmlText-method and the styledText-method.
There is an interesting result in the speed comparison of the two methods.
Here the htmlText-method is significantly faster w
Apologies hh. I can confirm that the htmltext method works beautifully and
blindingly fast. I was going to try it to understand fully first. I now do
and am grateful for the amazing tricks I have learned here. :-)

I already gave you one that hides *exactly* these lines
(as you already wished in your first post).

Hi all
I have learned a lot here, especially the hint of using styledText. But
there might be a misunderstanding. In my case, it is not necessarily the
whole line that is styled, but a line might *contain* a chunk of text that
is styled, e.g. one word in the middle of the line has textcolor set. S

The equivalent of chunk expressions are ridiculously verbose in JS, but
this one's not bad:
getElementById("id").removeAttribute("style");

Why do you need to simulate non-contiguous selections? Set the
listBehavior, multipleHilites, and noncontiguousHilites of the field to
true and then you can do things like:
set the hilitedLines of fld 1 to 1,3,5
But to your original question, you should use:
repeat for each line L in the htmlTex
In jQuery it’d be something like $j(‘div #id’).text(); selecting the field’s
enclosing div by ID or class.

Kaveh,
Well, you learn something every day! I didn't know you could hide a line of
text. Pretty cool!
FWIW, the fastest way that I know to remove all text stylings from a field of
text is this:

Did not know about textStyle which has opened a whole new world! Thank you
so much for ruining my weekend Trevor. ;-)
hh, I love the first solution, which shows the beauty of LiveCode. But the
speed is the same as before...
i will try htmltext too. A while since I worked with it.
Thanks again.
If showing *only* lines with colored text means that all others
are hidden then you could use:
...
set hidden of line i of fld "text" to \
(the textcolor of line i of fld "text" is empty)
...
Trevor's script would then read:
...
put (tTextA[i]["runs"][1]["style"]["textcolor"] is empty) \

Kaveh,
I would work which lines should be shown and hidden inside a variable
and then replace the whole field...

There is another tip here in this thread about

As a single command, it might be better.
