[MontoyaAPI][RawEditor][DocumentListener] Support or Workaround?

Alexandre | Last updated: Aug 12, 2024 11:11PM UTC

I’m trying to access the DocumentListener for a RawEditor component. It appears that the method rawEditor.uiComponent().getDocument() is not accessible. I attempted the following workaround: rawEditor.uiComponent().addPropertyChangeListener("text", evt -> clearLogButton.setEnabled(rawEditor.getContents().length() > 0)); However, this approach does not seem to work. Is there a specific property or method within RawEditor that allows me to listen for changes to its content? Thank you in advance for your help! Alex

Hi Alex This isn't something that we expose on this component. If you'd like to use a listener in this way, we'd recommend you use a native Java component or RSyntaxTextArea rather than RawEditor. Currently, the way these components work is heavily based on user actions. We can raise a feature request to change this, but this is not something that we would implement in the short term.

Alternatively, is there another listener available for detecting content changes in the RawEditor? Also, is there a way to add a "Clear" button similar to the one found under "Extensions -> Output/Errors"?

There is the "isModified()" method. There's no built-in component for a clear button - this is functionality you would need to implement yourself. Hope this helps!
