Re: [wxlua-users] wxStyledTextCtrl

Hi Milind,

> I have a wxSyledTextCtrl control and if I set the SetWrapMode to wxSTC_WRAP_WORD and there are lines that actually wrap then the function EnsureCaretVisible does not scroll to the caret position. Is there any way to have wrapping and get this to work?

I remember running into the same issue. Try adding
styledTextCtrl:EnsureVisibleEnforcePolicy, as I remember it helping in
my case. It also helps if the position is inside a fold.

  local pos = #styledTextCtrl:GetText()
  styledTextCtrl:GotoPos(pos)
  styledTextCtrl:EnsureVisibleEnforcePolicy(styledTextCtrl:LineFromPosition(pos))
  --styledTextCtrl:EnsureCaretVisible()
  styledTextCtrl:SetFocus()

I suspect EnsureCaretVisible() may not be necessary in this case.

Paul.
