Yahor Radtsevich commented on JBIDE-6229:
-----------------------------------------
To implements this, a method to locate the selected text on the screen is necessary.
Currently I have two different approaches, but none of them is working good enough:
1.- Insert invisible DIVs before and after the selected text
- Get screen position of the DIVs
- Delete the DIVs from the DOM tree
Weak points:
- this approach modifies DOM tree
- selection disappears in the case if a DIV is inserted before the selected text node
(before symbol with index 0).
2.- Clone the selected text node
- Replace the original node by the clone
- Insert invisible DIVs and get their position as in the 1st approach.
- Replace the clone with the original back
This approach does not modify DOM tree, but I faced a XULRunner bug when selection
disappears from the screen.
Implement DnD support for selected text in VPE
