Phillip Pearson - web + electronics notes

tech notes and web hackery from a new zealander who was vaguely useful on the web back in 2002 (see: python community server, the blogging ecosystem, the new zealand coffee review, the internet topic exchange).

Delphi question (is there a TTreeView.BeginEdit?)

Can anyone tell me if there’s a way to force editing a tree node in [[Delphi]]? I’ve got a TTreeView and I want to be able to add a new node and have it already selected for editing.

This will do the selection: node.MakeVisible; node.Selected := true; … but how do I get it to start editing? In C# I can use TreeNode.BeginEdit and in wxWindows I can use wxTreeCtrl::EditLabel, but there doesn’t seem to be a corresponding method in TTreeNode or TTreeView.

Update: Kev French answers this question in the comments. Node.EditText will do it. Thanks!
