EEikEdwinUserSuppliedText and SetTextL

[jbylund]

Hi,

I have a dialog with a CEikGlobalTextEditor. When calling SetTextL, i get the panic EIKON-EDWIN 8. Anyone knows why, or where I cand find any documentation about EIKON-EDWIN panics?

The resource that looks like this:
RESOURCE DIALOG r_dialog_ok
{
title = "";
buttons = R_AVKON_SOFTKEYS_OK_EMPTY;
flags = EEikDialogFlagWait | EEikDialogFlagCbaButtons;
items = {
DLG_LINE
{
type = EEikCtGlobalTextEditor;
id = EDialogLabel;
itemflags = EEikDlgItemAsLabel;
control = GTXTED
{
flags = EEikEdwinUserSuppliedText | EEikEdwinNoHorizScrolling | EEikEdwinResizable;
numlines = 0;
};
}
};
}

I don't know the answer, but I remember having problems with EEikEdwinUserSuppliedText too. Instead I determined the editor content's height in dialog's PostLayoutDynInitL using the following

    CTextLayout *pTextLayout = pEikRichTextEditor->iLayout
        /* iLayout is protected, fix is omitted here for simplicity */;
    const TRect firstParagraphRect(pTextLayout->ParagraphRectL(0));
    const TInt formattedHeightInPixels = pTextLayout->FormattedHeightInPixels();
    const int niceHeight = formattedHeightInPixels - firstParagraphRect.iTl.iY;

then adjusted heights of dialog, line and control accordingly (also called ResetLineMinimumSizes()).
