CodeSnip Old Code (SVN)

Added support for cue text in the code editor by changing the class of the SynEdit control from TSynEdit to TSynEditEx and adding a TextHint property to the frame class which aliases the TSynEditEx.TextHint property.

Also added a new SetFocus method to the frame class that passes focus on to the SynEdit control when the frame gets focus.

Added new TSynEditEx method that sub-classes TSynEdit to add support for cue text via a new TextHint property.

Set focussed control of source code label to be source code editor frame.

Limited length of a snippet title to 64 characters.
Made this limit available as TSnippetBase.MaxTitleLength constant.
Modified TSnippetsEditorDlg to use this constant instead of hard wiring maximum length of title edit control.
Added test for maximum title length to TSnippetValidator.ValidateTitle.

Set maximum length of snippet title to 64 characters.

Added cue text for each edit control and for active text editors.

NOTE: uses TEdit hack from CS.Components.EditCtrls.

Enabled cue text on frame's memo control by including TMemo hack from CS.Components.EditCtrls.
Added TextHint property to frame to allow frame users to set the required cue text: this is simply passed on the the hacked memo control.

New unit containing custom edit controls. This fist version contains hacks of TEdit and TMemo to implement a standardised style of cue text across the controls.

Added GetFont method to TControlHelper to get reference to TControl's protected Font property.

Modified TDetailFrame.CreateTab so that it doesn't display the view associated with the new tab.
Updated comments for CreateTab and SelectTab in both FrDetail.pas and IntfFrameMgrs.pas.
