AppendFrom without causing a new line

Post by DickBryant »

I'm assembling the contents to be displayed in a rve from two sources, as follows:

PQAURec^.MainText.AddTextNLA('1. ',0,0,0);
PQAURec^.MainText.AppendFrom(GetRandomizedMC(i));
PQAURec^.MainText.AddTextNLA(StrPas(CRLF),0,-1,0);

Where PQAURec^.MainText is type TRVTableCellData and GetRandomizedMC is a function that returns type TRVTableCellData. The code ALMOST works as I wish except that instead of

1. Return Value Of GetRandomizedMC

I get

1.
Return Value Of GetRandomizedMC

Is there a way to place the "1. " ahead of the value of GetRandomizedMC on the same line? This is quite important to my application because I construct numbered displays from stored data which doesn't (can't) contain the numbering.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

On of possible solutions - saving source to TMemoryStream as RVF, then using AppendRVFFromStream with -1 in ParaNo parameter.

When saving, temporary exclude rvfoSaveTextStyles and rvfoSaveParaStyles from RVFOptions (cells do not support them). Since you use AppendFrom, I guess both the source and the target richviews are connected to the same RVStyle, so there must not be problem with mismatched styles.

Thanks for the quick support for this and the 'want tabs' question - both answers 'did the job' :D
