Thread: SynEdit in Lazarus program not accepting cursor, or delete and backspace!!

    SynEdit in Lazarus program not accepting cursor, or delete and backspace!!

    Hey all,
    I have a very annoying problem with Lazarus and SynEdit in one of my programs...

    I had a Delphi program that uses SynEdit, and I converted it over to a Lazarus program using the automatic conversion.

    On the whole it went smoothly, apart from one issue:

    When using my program at runtime, the SynEdit control doesn't accept any cursor key movements or delete/backspace, which is very very annoying!!

    The only way I can 'delete' stuff in the editor is to hightlight it and re-type whatever I want to enter in...AAAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!

    Any ideas?

    Maybe it is a setting that got mangled or something when I converted over the program, or I need some events to be hooked up (different from Delphi version)?

    cheers,
    Paul

    Try to compare the options to a newly instantiate SynEdit. It might be that some of those have been reset

    I just deleted my SynEdit controls off the form, recreated them, and it now works! Thanks for the suggestion mate
