equivalent of GetParText

Zitat

I'm continuing to work my way through WPTools 5, converting my main(WPTools 3) project over.
What is the WPTools 5 equivalent of<TWPRichText>.GetParText?

WPTools 5 usually does not work with paragraph indexes any more. Usually you should try to work with TParagraph references.

To convert code which uses the old
function GetParText(Index: Longint; Buffer: Pchar; Size: Integer): Integer;

I suggest to create code like this:

procedure TWP5WordPad.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var par : TParagraph;
    index : Integer;
begin
  index := 3; //<------ the index
  par := WPRichText1.FirstPar;
  while (par<>nil) and (index>0) do
  begin par := par.next; dec(index); end;
  if par<>nil then
     ShowMessage(par.GetText);
end;

From R4 this function will be available to assit you:

function TWPCustomRtfEdit.GetPar(ParIndex : Integer) : TParagraph;
begin
Result := FirstPar;
while (Result<>nil) and (ParIndex>0) do
begin Result := Result.next; dec(ParIndex); end;
end;
