EditorView
A view component to spawn an code-editor (fully functional)
EditorView[expr_String | expr_Offload, opts___]
where expr is a string, that represents an expression. It can receive updates and emit, when a user change the inner content.
Editor is usually quite slow, when it comes to updates, because of many decoration widgets used there. Please, do not use it on a rapid changing data, consider TextView instead.
Event generation
When "Event" option is provided, it will send a new data in a form of a string.
Options
"Event"
Specifies an uid of an event-object, that will be fired on-change.
"ReadOnly"
Blocks the editing mode. The default value is False
"Selectable"
Allows or blocks any selection and copying. The default is True
"ForceUpdate"
Fully updates an editor when expr changes (rebuilds all widgets). By the default it is set to False, which simplifies an update strategy and has less overhead.
Application
If you want to show the dynamic symbols content, use it together with ToString[expr, StandardForm]
EventHandler[InputRange[1,10,1,1], Function[n,
series = ToString[Series[Sin[x], {x,0,n}] // Normal, StandardForm];
]]
EventFire[%, 1];
EditorView[series // Offload]
Supported output forms
Dev notes
This is used in InterpretationBox implementation to replace a WL expression using a user-provided WL expression in a code editor.
