- start
- Int32
the character index where the replacement should start.
- end
- Int32
the character index where the replacement should end.
- text
- ICharSequence
the text to replace. This may include styles.
- newCursorPosition
- Int32
the new cursor position around the text. If > 0, this is relative to the end of the text - 1; if <= 0, this is relative to the start of the text. So a value of 1 will always advance you to the position after the full text being inserted. Note that this means you can't position the cursor within the text.
- textAttribute
- TextAttribute
The extra information about the text. This value may be null.
Returns
true if the replace command was sent to the associated editor (regardless of
whether the replacement is success or not), false otherwise.
- Attributes
Remarks
Replace the specific range in the editor with suggested text.
This method finishes whatever composing text is currently active and leaves the text as-it, replaces the specific range of text with the passed CharSequence, and then moves the cursor according to newCursorPosition. This behaves like calling #finishComposingText(), #setSelection(int, int) setSelection(start, end), and then #commitText(CharSequence, int, TextAttribute) commitText(text, newCursorPosition, textAttribute).
Similar to #setSelection(int, int), the order of start and end is not important. In effect, the region from start to end and the region from end to start is the same. Editor authors, be ready to accept a start that is greater than end.
