Saving SpacesEdit

[Astram]

Btw before reading, @ the title disregard the word Edit k.

How do you save spaces in a Multiline Edit. I mean, like the RC script editor, how when you press enter it saves the spaces you made. Like if I type

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  temp.i = "NOW WHEN I PRESS ENTER, 2 SPACES APPEAR UNDER IT AUTO";
  temp.z = "whatever";
} 


So, if any of you know what I mean please help. Is there a boolean?

PHP Code:

savespaces = true;

I guess you're talking about the auto-indenting that the RC's script editor already does.

Set: MLTextEditCtrlObject.autoindenting = true;

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function MLTextEditCtrl.onKeyUp(keycode) {
  if (keycode == VK_RETURN) {
    // find the amount of spaces used in the last line
    // append the amount of spaces to the texteditctrl
  }
} 


Yes but, what I'm wondering is how to find the spaces and append them :P.

I'm not sure if there is a better way to do it. This should work just fine.

PHP Code:

//appends all the spaces before any other text begins to the beginning of the next line
nextLine = currentLine.substring(0, currentLine.pos(currentLine.trim())) @ nextLine.trim(); 


e. Nevermind, as fowlplay suggested, use:
GuiMLTextEditCtrl.autoindenting - boolean - when pressing the return key, then it's automatically inserting the same number of spaces in front of the new line as in the previous line
