Hello,

(I_m not sure, if I'm on the right places here)

I like the styled text control really, but one thing is very annonying.
How can I persuade the text control not to jump to the end of line, if I go
up and down with the caret; with other words, not restrict the cursor to the valid area.
other words: the curor should stay in the current column, no matter, if there is a empty line, short or long line.

Second Question:
Is it possible (or can it be integrated in future plans), that the notebook page can be colored.
for example to make more obvious, which page is currently selected.
Or to make the labelling of the active tab in bold font.
It would also be nice, to be able to close a page with a mouse rightclick.

best regards,

   This is not currently possible. The feature is often called "virtual
space".

Custom drawing of the notebook tabs is currently not possible, (unless you make your own custom notebook-like control of course.) In 2.5 it will be possible to call HitTest and get the tab that a mouse click happened on.
