- Greetings,
- I need some assistance regarding the use of a gadtools.library
- string gadget. I want to control the position of the cursor inside
- the string gadget. When the user presses an alphanumeric key, I
- copy the first character pressed to the string gadget's buffer and then
- activate the gadget. Unfortunately, the gadget's cursor remains on
- that first character entered. Subsequently typed text appears before
- the first character typed (e.g. elpH instead of Help) and the cursor
- remains on the first character typed. Can someone be so kind as to
- inform me how I can control the location of the cursor in a
- gadtools.library string gadget, or suggest some other way to create
- the desired effect? The string gadget is where text is entered for
- a spreadsheet-like editor I am creating.
