EE_GET_SEL_TYPE¶
Obtains the type of selection status. You can send this message explicitly or by using the Editor_GetSelType inline function or Editor_GetSelTypeEx inline function.
EE_GET_SEL_TYPE
wParam = (WPARAM) (BOOL) bNeedAlways;
lParam = (LPARAM)0;
Parameters¶
bNeedAlways
If this parameter is TRUE, EE_GET_SEL_TYPE returns the type of selection status even if none is selected. If this parameter is FALSE, EE_GET_SEL_TYPE returns SEL_TYPE_NONE if none is selected.
Return Values¶
Returns a combination of the following values. SEL_TYPE_NONE, SEL_TYPE_CHAR, SEL_TYPE_LINE, and SEL_TYPE_BOX cannot be combined. SEL_TYPE_KEYBOARD and SEL_TYPE_SELECTED can be combined with other values. If bNeedAlways is TRUE and if text is selected, a logical sum with SEL_TYPE_SELECTED will be returned. If bNeedAlways is FALSE, SEL_TYPE_SELECTED will not be used.
