Iczelion tutorial 35 comment.
I'm writing a syntax highliter and I've found that if I change the Font (WM_SETFONT) and SelectObject() while the WM_PAINT I got horrible results because the code is redrawing ALWAYS all the window and not only the UpdateRegion.

Am I right??

I've changed the EM_GETRECT for a GetUpdateRect() BEFORE the CallWindowProc() and now it works perfectly.

What do you think about it?

:alright:

I think most of us shy away from rich edit after seeing all that scary looking code...lol

Hehehe, it's a lot code but a kind of simple one in the HIGHLITE part, the hardest part is checking the words to highlite.
The highliter just asks for the position of the letter where it want to start writing a does a DrawText() right there, there's (in my opinion) a bug, because in the tutorial Iczelion tooks the whole rect of the control and not only the Update Rect.

Thanks for answering,
