How to determine the selectable region of a RichTextBlock? RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hello,

    Let's say I have a RichTextBlock of width 200 and I have an inline run that wraps, I want to be able to determine the selectable region. More specifically, how can I determine what region the Run occupies on Line 1, Line 2, etc?

    <RichTextBlock Width="200" FontSize="20" TextWrapping="Wrap">
        <RichTextBlock.Blocks>
            <Paragraph >
                <Paragraph.Inlines>
                    <Run Text="My selectable run" />
                </Paragraph.Inlines>
            </Paragraph>
        </RichTextBlock.Blocks>
    </RichTextBlock>

  • Hi Dev Help,

    By ElementStart  and  ElementEnd from Run class we should be able to know the TextPointer position of the Run block. But I cannot see there exist any method that can get the line number of the selectable region, or even any valuable that can calculate the line number.
