FormattedTextEditor drop cursor position
posted

Is there a way to know/set cursor position on DragOver and DragDrop methods for the FormattedTextEditor?

I'm doing something like a text editor and would like to drag&drop some text but cannot find the way to place it other than the beginning and the end of already written text.

Many thanks

    Hi,

    It sounds like you are looking for this:

    this.ultraFormattedTextEditor1.EditInfo.GetCaretPositionFromMouseLocation(point);

    Note that Drag/Drag events give you screen coordinates, not control coords. So you will need to use the PointToClient method to convert them.
