New article Graphical Interfaces X: The Multiline Text box control (build 8) has been published:

The Multiline Text box control is discussed. Unlike the graphical objects of the OBJ_EDIT type, the presented version will not have restrictions on the number of input characters. It also adds the mode for turning the text box into a simple text editor, where the cursor can be moved using the mouse or keys.

The keyboard keys can be divided into several groups (see notation in Fig. 1):

  • Control keys (orange)
  • Function keys (purple)
  • Alphanumeric keys (blue)
  • Navigation keys (green)
  • Numeric keypad (red)
