Notes

A StyleRun is a series of characters with the same style attributes in a StyledText object. A block of StyledText can be thought of as a group of StyleRuns that are appended to each other. Use the Range class to access the position of a StyleRun within the styled text.

Example

The following example loops through the StyleRuns in a block of StyledText that is displayed in an EditField. It uses the StartPos and Length properties of the Range class to get the position of each StyleRun and displays it and the text of each StyleRun in a ListBox.

Dim count, i as Integer
count=EditField1.StyledText.StyleRunCount //get the number of StyleRuns
For i=0 to count-1 //loop through them
ListBox1.Addrow Str(EditField1.StyledText.StyleRunRange(i).StartPos)
ListBox1.Cell(i,1)= Str(EditField1.StyledText.StyleRunRange(i).Length)
ListBox1.Cell(i,2)=EditField1.StyledText.StyleRun(i).Text
