Hi,
iam using wx.stc.StyledTextCtrl to show xml. user can edit xml content but not tags.
like this:
edit here
I want to restrict user not to edit the start and end tag(). They are only allowed to edit inside the tag contents.
Is there anyway, can we make tag ready only using marker or any other methods. It includes keyboard selection(arrows), mouse selection, backspace key and delete key.
thank you.
It will probably involve parsing the file everytime a change is made, find the tags… then use HitTest with mouse/key events and watch the direction (currentposition - lastposition) and not Skip the event if the direction is in the direction toward the tag.

According to the Scintilla documentation (section “Style”), there is an experimental feature to set the text style of a section of text to non-changeable (see the caveats of its limitations). If this is robust enough for your you would save yourself a lot of interface-twisting work.
I have not tested if this Scintilla feature is old enough to be contained in wxPython.
