07/09/2021, 7:39 AMwell, there is a haxeui-code-editor, that only works for haxeui-html5 and haxeui-hxwidgets though (the rest default to textarea)... - b

07/09/2021, 7:39 AMcross framework rich text could be a real pain - b

user
07/09/2021, 7:47 AMI was just asking for rendering :P - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:47 AMBut yeah, not easy :x - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:47 AMI should try hxwidgets target °° - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:48 AMah, just rendering would make it easier i guess... there is a facility for htmlText on labels, but its mostly unsupported - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:48 AMi think just openfl, nme, flixel and ofc html5 - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:56 AMHmm I see wxHTML in wxwidgets' documentation, but didn't find it in externs/wrappers Did I miss it or is it not exposed (yet)? - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:56 AMprobably not exposed yet - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:57 AMnever even heard of it myself personally - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:57 AM - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:57 AMscintilla is exposed, and i think wxRichTexCtrl (but neither through haxeui-hxwidgets) - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:58 AM(ie, just in the externs) - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:58 AMStyledTextCtrl i think also? - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:58 AMand wxWebView (though its a total piece of shite) - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:58 AMI saw WebView too but it's too much for my needs - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:58 AMits also too shit - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:58 AMEh x) - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:59 AMwxHTML sounds interesting though - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:59 AMbecause you're on windows and it's using internet explorer's renderer? x) - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:59 AM^^ exactly - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:59 AMShould be fine-ish on linux then :P - u
user
07/09/2021, 7:59 AMBut still way too much, wxHTML sounds perfect yeah - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/09/2021, 7:59 AMprobably... dunno, never tested it - b

07/09/2021, 8:00 AMi wonder if that could be used as a generic replacement in haxeui-hxwidgets for labels in general
