TextCtrl#set_selection problem.. need help, please

Desktop wxRuby

Can’t get this function working, does any body know where I’m wrong ?

@term = Wx::TextCtrl.new(@skin, -1, ‘Paste URL Here’, :pos => [25,100],
:size => [300,20]) #, :style => Wx::NO_BORDER)
@term.evt_set_focus() {|event| on_term_focus(event) }

def on_term_focus(event)
if @term.get_value == “Paste URL Here”
@term.set_value("")
else
@term.set_selection(-1,-1) #<---- DON’T WORK
end
end

try to skip:

def on_term_focus(event)
if @term.get_value == “Paste URL Here”
@term.set_value("")
else
@term.set_selection(-1,-1)
end
evt.skip()
end

Hi Rob,
I have the same problem with a ListCtrl Object,
and the solution for me is to REFRESH the ListCtrl after the selection:

ListCtrl#set_item_state( )
ListCtrl#refresh_items( )

I hope it helps
